Is this the biggest fedora book of all time?

I didn't get why people say it's such shocking writing, it's literally what a 14 year old emo kid would think of.

Is he autistic?

“One cringes to hear scientists cooing over the universe or any part thereof like schoolgirls over-heated by their first crush. From the studies of Krafft-Ebbing onward, we know that it is possible to become excited about anything—from shins to shoehorns. But it would be nice if just one of these gushing eggheads would step back and, as a concession to objectivity, speak the truth: THERE IS NOTHING INNATELY IMPRESSIVE ABOUT THE UNIVERSE OR ANYTHING IN IT.”

I have, but there's world of difference between misanthropic omnicide/efilism and philanthropic antinatalism. Breeding is selfish and harmful whether the fact is stated by an emo goth on the internet or David Benatar, Ph.D in a book published by Oxford University Press.
