What does the literary community think of today's tragedy?

>>/pol/

Everything that is happening now, has happened before and will happen again.

There is no reason to acquaint yourself with anything more specific than the zeitgeist of a given era.

>a gay club
Couldn't care less.

Unrelated. General sadness at the loss of life I guess.

Mean

Is Laurie Penny implying she's not queer or willing to threesome, or just that she doesn't afraid of anything?

Politicians and celebrities will capitalize on it and bend it to whatever agenda suits them, then the topic will die down and be forgotten and we'll move on.

holy fuck that pic

>Muslim communities in the US and elsewhere will be feeling so much fear.

I read that as muslims should be expecting reprisal attacks from the gays.

Which would be awesome.

Society will tell you that the current conflict we're seeing on the geopolitical stage is one of economic disenfranchisement, that Islamic extremism has planted the flag for the fight of the poor against the Western capitalist oppressors, and while this economic disenfranchisement is a contributing factor, it's only an exterior factor. The true ideological divide we're seeing in the world, and that will continue to expand and become increasingly violent, is between Modernism and Traditionalism. We are seeing the push back against secular Modernist globalization spearheaded by radical Islam

This is actually not what's happening but I'm sure listening to Alex jones keeps you from being bored

It's part of the reason why I live as an observer.

I'm sure Don Delillo is carefully taking notes

What part do you disagree with?

It's a tragedy. Hopefully Trump wins and some sanity is restored to America in the form of mild national solidarity and "it's OK to temporarily ban people from entering your country if they keep exploding!"

>50 people die to a muslim following his faith
>muh muslims


i'm as liberal as the next cocksucker, but what exactly is he saying that is conspiracy theory? yes, isis came out of failed US policy but do you want to ignore the fact that they fell onto conservative ideology?

>both sides show up in dresses
>muslims try to insult florida gays by calling them faggots
>florida gays try to insult muslims by calling them religious
>shoes and handbags flying everywhere
>cocaine oud miasma debilitates all participants
>feds show up and accidentally shoot some of the unconscious crowd dead for trying to escape while being brown or faggots or both

I was thinking more like these guys start abducting muslim men off the streets and turning them into public toilets.

>reports say it was a religious attack

>other reports say the dude was atheist

what

that's really more of a set in france thing. or maybe the midwest.

The term "globalism" or "globalization" pisses me off because it usually implies a certain kind of generalization and not interest in specifics. Especially by your nutty libertarians and jones fans

Is there even any aesthetic value in this attack?
What a pointless gesture.

False flag to distract from the bilderberg meeting today.

>implying I keep up with current news
>implying I've progressed far enough from the greeks to have arrived in the present year

Eternal recurrence is mysticism for metaphysicians.

...

Funny how SJWs still don't know if they should yell about homophobia or islamophobia

Or the alt right bitching sucking up whatever propaganda is funniest

I have not seen anything on homophobia yet

Islam is incapable of homophobia :^)

Honestly I think it's a terrible tragedy but will be a good thing in the long-term because this will be the thing that finally turns leftards against islam.

he's not a true muslim, bigot

k.

/pol/'s answer to everything isn't much better than the shooter's

ahh, but no true scotsman would...

/pol/ doesn't shoot up nightclubs.

you're right, it shoots up churches.

tiiiiime is a flat circle

*Champagne Socialism for all

>destroy the money system

Is there even a limit to her idiocy?

>Why don't labour win elections any more?

>first world "communists"

I don't see much of a difference between first world MLM's and first world NatSocs, or Fascists. All vermin.

No, /pol/acks condemned those attacks like everyone else

See, this would have been a subversive quote coming from Carlos the Jackal or even Sartre, who liked to hang out with killers and revolutionaries.

But this is a """" journalist"""" posting on twitter. Something leads me to believe she doesn't lead a radical life of crime, just thought that sounded like a badass thing to type

>When you wanna complain that your government's expansion of its military's power for the sake of stopping terrorism impinges on your freedums but you also wanna complain about how your president is soft on radical Islam.

It's both. It's never just one thing.

Fascism is good. The fire is rising. Degeneracy must perish. The white man is on the ascendancy after years of oppression by liberal media.
War is inherent to human nature. There is no reconciliation between whites and Muslims. WE ARE NOT TO BLAME. WE NEED TO REACT WITH VIOLENCE. DO NOT LET THE WEST FALL UNDER THE BOOT OF ISLAMISM

Pretty much this. Like every other time.

Ah yes, all of /pol/ united suddenly in their clear coherent not at all contradictory ideological bastion to condemn mass shootings. All of them, yeah, I can see it. There's not a lot of unstable people who post on /pol/, I'm sure.

>Fascism is good. The fire is rising. Degeneracy must perish. The white man is on the ascendancy after years of oppression by liberal media.

You're oppressed by the librul mediuh just as much as Laurie over there is oppressed by the money system. Get a hold of yourself.

You disgrace yourself with your petty persecution complex and claims to victim hood.

Tripfags are vermin.

Triggered?

Oh, of course there are, but by and large /pol/ hated the church shootings, as they saw the victims as people who didn't deserve it

For real, these people want to claim identity through these ideologies without actually living by them. Neither one of these people actually opposes the bourgeoisie or lives by Traditional authority.

"DO NOT LET THE WEST FALL UNDER THE BOOT OF ISLAMISM"

You mean besides the fact that it's obviously true if you even study history for a little bit.

This is somewhat true. I remember seeing a lot of posters say "why did he shoot churchgoers instead of going Death Wish on gang niggers"

obviously there was some edgy idolisation like with r9k and elliot rodger but i haven't actually seen him talked positively about much on /pol/ at all

It mirrors what happened in Communist countries, academics supported communism until it started slaughtering them.

I expect many long-winded social media rants that all boil down to
>this is why we need to ban guns
Or
>this is why we need to ban Muslims
Those same armchair experts couldn't care less about the victims.

>cocaine oud miasma

i saw them supporting Slayer once

The /b/ of the alt-right isn't capable of genuine sympathy or coherence. I'm just going to go on stereotyping them for their lunatic views as lunatics, if you don't mind.

Most of what they say, isn't any different than what the shooter believed in. And nobody's going to see the irony of that.

take the redpill. You've been brainwashed by your marxist college professors

Take the brown pill, its a hard pill to swallow.

neither
because there is no food

>The /b/ of the alt-right isn't capable of genuine sympathy or coherence
nice dehumanisation
>Most of what they say, isn't any different than what the shooter believed in. And nobody's going to see the irony of that.
Most of what radical Muslims say isn't any different from what orthodox Muslims believe.

I'm talking about the TRUE one, the one which wants women back in the kitchen, Africans back in Africa, and the 1950s to become real again

NOT literature-related. Saged and reported.

>nice dehumanisation
Thanks, I don't think /pol/ fucks fit under the category of human.

>Most of what radical Muslims say isn't any different from what orthodox Muslims believe.
You didn't see my point so I'll repeat it again. I hope you can read.

Most of what the zanier alt-right, which is on this board, say, isn't any different than what the shooter believed in. And nobody's going to see the irony of that.

>Veeky Forums is THE literary community

Yeah, you're talking about the true brown pill, I know. It certainly is a hard pill to swallow.

Thanks, I agree

Nah, they see him as a beta cuck

Oh, so? The enemy of my enemy isn't my friend, dummo. Are all people who believe in the value of "liberté, égalité, fraternité" guilty of the excesses of the French revolution?

You didn't see my point so I'll repeat it again. I hope you can read.

Most of what the zanier alt-right, which is on this board, say, isn't any different than what the shooter believed in. And nobody's going to see the irony of that.

>The 1950s
Only a retarded alt-right shitposter would think the 50s were some sort of conservative white man's paradise. The 50s were as vapid and soul-crushing a time as any with a crumbling veneer of stability and the afterglow of having won The Big War propping things up.

There was literally nothing libertarian about that post. I suggest you read more.

lmfao
honestly it sounds like he wasn't religious in his day-to-day but admired the islamic state ideologically, he identified with the aspects of the religion that validated his frustrations
>the term globalism (i.e. the exocannibalism of specific adjacent cultures, states, principles and peoples to the eventual point of a complete, general oneness) pisses me off because it implies a certain kind of generalization and not specifics
you're posting this on a forum with a section specifically for dickgirl hentai

what happend?

Yes I agree, you are well informed on this issue.

why is it when something bad happens people want to see what everyone else is thinking? especially the most unlikely and uneducated people on the topic? usually the people who get the soundbyte for the news are the loudest and emotional. Let me reformulate an old Dave Chapelle joke on the topic,

>Nigga I don't care what the literary community thinks. I got questions that the literary community may not have answers to! I want someone to explain this tragedy to me not read a book.

A Muslim shot up a gay nightclub, but it wasn't because he was Muslim or homophobic, and it definitely wasn't because Islam is homophobic and it really wasn't because socially conservative religious ideologies are often homophobic.

lmfao

>"this was an evil time! look how oppressed the poor unhappy women is!"

some american shot other americans in public place again. everyone's shocked and america is talking about terror.

Stop posting this corny norman rockwell shit when someone tells you that the 1950's wasn't heaven on earth. Stop parroting your dad dude.

I don't understand what is funny, I agree with you.

Muslim shoots up gay club on Latino night

I was being sarcastic hun!

What is so ironic about it, retard? It's not even as true as you'd like to believe, but you probably have little appreciation for what kind of lifestyle Muslims want to live except that there are passing similarities in opinions on social matters so you can call out the big meanie alt-righters.

Not what that poster was saying at all. One can possibly "prefer" the 1950s to the present day but it certainly wasn't an ideal.

what a fucking awful shame that such a grouping of potentially intellectual conversation is left to be trod on by blinded communists. For shame Veeky Forums for shame.

>What is so ironic about it, retard?

The idea that you embody much of what you hate and feign middle class outrage over, is an idea full of life's great ironies. Embodying much of what you hate is irony.

and how is that news worthy?

It was the deadliest mass shooting in US history. 50+ injured and 50+ dead.

The gay liberal agenda to degenerate the US is what happened.

Omar? Is that you?

You really are divorced from what people are actually worried about, aren't you? Saying that people who make funny politically incorrect memes and support a political candidate running for democratic election "embody" what they hate in Islam misses the point. People don't care about Islam because they think homosexuality and modernism is immoral, Christians and Buddhists and whatever do the same and no one is concerned. People are frightened of Islam because of it's tangible effect on the quality of life where it arrives.
