/lit/ has become everything /lit/ hated. An autistic friendless hypocrite in high school who just learned that a certain type of person in college is who they want to come across as so instantly get into philosophy only to be welcomed by more of the same kind of high school student who all congregate towards the right and worship Nietzsche and either live in Eastern Europe or suburban Indiana

lol I love Chesterton but he's not entirely wrong, his arguments are often sophistic and he completely misrepresents his materialist opponents.

My favorite Chestertonism was in Orthodoxy when he said mysticism is like the sun - you can't look at it, but it provides the light by which you see everything else. Then I remembered Plato said that first in the Republic.

what did you read?
i just read the man who was thursday and liked it. atleast chesterton acknowledges anarchism, but it's a sure thing he's to law abiding.

what he does get wrong, and quite a few people do is to think that the rich are the true anarchists, who don't care for laws and regulations. while this may be true they are nonetheless dependent on the state to secure their property and position. so they are some kind of hypocrite anarchists. real anarchists refuse all institutions and don'T bite the hand that feeds them
