Why does Veeky Forums prefer conservative writers to liberal writers?

I don't give a damn about their politics. Your politics do not define you.

Veeky Forums does not "prefer" any literature, especially not for political motivations

They don't. No one in real life does. The right wing/nazi/trump audience are just very vocal on this website bc they are ugly/fat/socially inept etc.

I frequently see conservative writers being praised on Veeky Forums, but very few liberal writers are recognized here. Especially liberal philosophers, they are disparaged by Veeky Forums all the time. Why is this?

I tend to stay center left/right when I'm reading something for pleasure. If I want to be preached st up read the Bible

"liberalism can only exist when there are "no" "problems" (ironically (?) it is then the liberalism which "creates" "problems")"

First of all, the current form of liberalism and conservatism are vastly different now than they were in the past. The schisms have widened to levels of the extreme and liberalism and conservatism weren't wrapped up in identity politics. Stop this shit. Anyone in the center and rejecting extremist ideals of the right or left can appreciate literature of either political leaning of the past.

Cuckservatives and Progressives are one in the same and are easily triggered by any difference of opinion. They are both a scourge to us all.

I don't care what political leaning the author was, so long as they weren't a complete jack off.

Who are you quoting?

Return to your pseud containment board immediately please. Veeky Forums is and always has been a Christian traditionalist board w/ minor appreciation for pomo commercial fiction writers e.g. Pynchon, Gass

I always read the shorter parts of a post to see if the longer parts are worth reading. Boy am I glad I skipped your tripe. Political leanings bleed into their work inevitably, cretin.

It's interesting to see the righties clamoring about not getting a safe space after they spent god knows how long railing on the left over the same thing. Hypocrites.

Liberal philosophers to think women and non-whites are somehow morally equal to the white man. Right wing philosophers know better.
Most people on Veeky Forums are redpilled and don't think much of women and minorities

>this thread

If you'd like to shitpost, try /pol/

This place was infested with Marxists and anarchists before the Catholic posters took over. Now it's basically /pol9k/

I have no idea what you're talking about; I've never supported an inclusive environment wherein the mediocre are free to discuss their mediocrity. An institution is only vital and strong if it rejects everything that is not itself.

You are shitposting right now. Personal belief is the foundation of all great works.

Liberalism won the cold war. It's responsible for the postmodern hell we suffer in, why would we support it?

Because you can't tell conservative and old apart

u can be Christian and lefty

Trump voters don't read books

I voted for Trump and I read books, faggot.

and you use the word faggot in 2017. not saying this in a politically correct way, i'm just saying no one who is funny or worthwhile in any way shares any qualities with your breed

This

>Veeky Forums is a christian board

Um, no. It's a board to discuss literature. Not that you would know

Post a picture of your bookshelf with timestamp

>u can be Christian and support the murder of infants, atheism, sodomy, and an economic ideology historically linked to the genocide and impoverishment of the masses
It's true that you can be a Christian and lefty, but you can't be a particularly intelligent or good Christian and lefty

I'm a Trump voter and not only am I taking my degree at a prestigious university on a scholarship but I've almost certainly read more books than you

>this bible is not a book

Because liberalism is an antihumanism.

Give me marxism, fascism, conservatism and islamism but please don't give me liberalism, this murderer of morals and politics.

>the bible must be taken literally and only in the sense which I believe and adhere to

The entire point of Christianity is to be Christ-like in your every day life. Not to preach and look down upon others. Christ didn't die for you just so that you could sin again, Christ died for you to lead by example and to show you the way.

Nice proof you got there

t. not a christian

Because I do not hold the same values as you? The bible was meant to be taken metaphorically not literally and it is in no way a definitive text of science or history.

because you misread the bible, you are saved through faith not through a poor imitiation of God

are you a proddie?

literally no sect believes you are saved by emulating God

Not that user, but I shiggy diggy. You're not gonna enter heaven with that attitude

So faith alone is what god wants, no matter how ill you treat your fellow man, no matter how much you sin, no how big of an asshole you are, all that matters is that you have blind faith?

All of this comes from the blind leading the blind, you do realize that, right? I wonder if that is what Christ would have taught, or if that's just what the authoritative figures who used religion to rule the masses decided is what you should believe.

If you're a fucking asshole, what makes you think God is going to want to let you kick it in heaven with him?

t. Heretic

It's laughable how Catholics fumble wildly for a dumb-sounding protestant moniker, where their name is so easily lampooned. Catholick my balls.

>i have never read the bible, let me spout embarrassing rhetoric i learned from r/atheism

Nope, user, you are the one using God's name in vain to carry out a message of hatred and contempt toward God's own creations.

You place yourself above them, simply because you have blind faith following blind teachers. The entire point of Christianity is to be Christ-like. What do you think God thinks of you over the way you think of his other children, made in his own image?

You, you are the blasphemer and the heretic.

IT"S CURRENT YEAR, ARE YOU KIDDING ME

Ah so you are a proddie

Not an argument. Nor am I an atheist.

>For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith--and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God--
Just go back to whatever subreddit you crawled out from.

>Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves.

>“Judge not, that you be not judged. For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.

>“Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

See, I can post quotes too

I don't have to prove anything to you. I just read the Book of the New Sun though, want me to write you a fucking book report on it?

None of those quotes condradict what I said. You will not find any quote in the scripture that says you are saved by emulating Jesus.

faith without works is dead, you fucking cunt

-- jaymz

Nature itself was the one which thought to speak those words through me, so I was compelled to put them in scare quotes, partly because I was scared

works are evidence of faith, it doesn't work in the other direction my little shitposter

Nature is not real.

>You will not find any quote in the scripture that says you are saved by emulating Jesus

Except of course, the things Jesus demands of his followers.

What a lame assertion.

Please write us a book report sir.

I don't come to Veeky Forums to be told what to read. Anyone who does that is already a lowbrow dolt incapable of a genuine thought; a second-hand person cradling at the tit of mutated vanity.

I have my own preferences, unwarranted and uninfluenced by Veeky Forums

Bitch please. You are fucking doing that all the time

Oxford Dictionary:
Faggot- verb
1: A bundle of sticks
2: Unutterably offensive colloquial term for homosexual
3: Jerk

He means (3) you faggot

There will always be a vanity driven ignoramus who spouts off their insecure cries of "preferred" literature. What is worse, is the imbecile who generalizes others into this unnecessary concocted framework.

In short, go fuck yourself.

>3: Jerk

Then one could say:

The faggy faggot faggotly faggoted the faggot around the burning faggot at the faggiest faggot faggoting party?

No writer in the meme trilogy is conservative, what are you talking about?

Why is Veeky Forums so resistant to /pol/? Even /lgbt/ is more /pol/ aligned than Veeky Forums. Maybe it's because Veeky Forums doesn't read. Or maybe Veeky Forums likes the intellectual commie Jew persona. Maybe it's because they think the world works like in their leftlib-leaning books.

>every work of art necessarily fits into the uniquely American liberal/conservative dichotomy.

really made me ponder.

It's because Veeky Forums isn't retarded like /lgbt/ and /pol/. Well, isn't as retarded.

>Maybe it's because Veeky Forums doesn't read.

Bingo.

>Why is Veeky Forums so resistant to /pol/?
Why do you want us to think just like you? Does it really bother you that there are people on Veeky Forums who hold different opinions?

>Then one could say: The faggy faggot faggotly faggoted the faggot around the burning faggot at the faggiest faggot faggoting party?

Are you trying to tell me you HAVEN'T been saying this?

Because /pol/ doesn't want to hold opinions. /pol/ wants to be right. People resisting /pol/ means that there must be some sort of flaw, a weakness of argument. Something compels Veeky Forums not to embrace the Imperial Truth. This is deeply unsettling.

>I've read lolita
>this is a pedo board

>I've read ulysses
>this is an Irish board

>I've read marx
>this is a commie board

>I've read Moby's Dick
>this is a whale hunting board

You are an absolute retard.

>Why is Veeky Forums so resistant to /pol/?
He hates it!
HATES IT

>using Jew as an argument


there is nothing wrong with Jewish people or Jewish writers, only to scared /pol/tards who believe in a ficitious worldwide conspiracy.

Because polarised black and white thinking is the product of a diseased mind. You are sick, user, so sick you can't recognise your own symptoms from your fever dreams.

>I choose to get emotional over shit I read about in the news

Maybe because that sounds like the makings of a lame brain, Shane.

I didn't use Jew as an argument. The stereotypical Jewish commie intellectual is a viable image to be enamored with. I think many Veeky Forumserates here think of themselves as such sort of intellectual and therefore need to reject /pol/ as part of their role in this game of masquerade.

jew detected

What is your plan to secure your children a better life? Move? Where to? There is no place to escape. Being emotionally invested would be a luxury in the current era. It goes beyond feelings of justice, moral and "what should be". DOTR soon, I hope.

/pol/ is nothing but wingnut theorists who see the white race as the only thing that matters. They get triggered by interracial commercials for gods sake. If being a "commie jew intellectual" is such a bad thing, I assure you the opposite is worse. As much as they hate identity politics they play themselves right into it.

You're delusional. Turn off the computer for a while and return to the real world.

>post yfw porno film about Hegel or Heidegger

Veeky Forums prefers one thing, and one thing alone: snowflakes.

Snowflakes come in two flavours. The first is to be what amounts to apolitical. To transcend the swill of the plebs and go full Socrates. Think Kierkegaard, Hegel, Stirner, Cervantes, Nietzsche, and many Greek philosophers (ironically not Plato).

The second is to have politics which are "eccentric" or "batshit insane". To have politics which seem contradictory *if you thought like a pleb*, but which have a deeper meaning guiding them. Think Montaigne's liberal conservatism, or Mishima's starry-eyed conservatism, or Borges' detached conservatism, or Hobbes' equality-driven monarchical conservatism, or Zizek's brand of socialism, or Dostoevsky's desperate conservatism.

Did you notice a pattern, there?

Pretty much. It's weird that y'all take offense at SJWs saying 'all men are misogynist/racist/homophobic' and then turn around and take those beliefs to the extreme. Is it some kind of 'I'll give you something to REALLY cry about' mentality?

No one on /pol/ takes offense of those claims themselves. It's the hypocrisy that gets to us. I think /pol/ firmly believes to be right and wants others to see the light as well, so pointing out how feminism is sexist and so on *sniff* is a step forward to redpilling them.

The problem is /pol/ doesn't want to debate or present a logical, facial, or even persuasive argument. They want to shitpost and browsing beat it into people until someone admits /pol/ was right. They don't see any need for intellectual debate or conversation or backing up claims nor do they have any desire to show even a modicum of respect to anyone who does not see the world as they do. They see all other ideologies and thoughts as something to be crushed and bent to their will. It is really rather sickening. They're just spoiled children who have never been spanked and never told "no."

*Factual not facial

>people are actually responding to this.

Please ignore all posters who try to politicize Veeky Forums on the whole.

*brow beat not browser
Fuck, I'm just turning off the auto correct function at this point.

I don't have a plan. Do (You)?

But /pol/ and the alt right are just as intolerant, just as anti-intellectual, just as black and white thinking (literally and figuratively), just as identity politics focused, just as inclined to dismiss anyone who disagrees with them with buzzword insults. /pol/ is tumblr with completely opposite demographics and beliefs.

Neither should be taken at all seriously.

I don't plan to inflict this world on children. Neither me or my gf want them, for the same reason.

Browse /pol/ for a while.
regarding the debates: /pol/ cares for race. If you don't care for race no amount of logic will convince you otherwise. It's like a father who lost his daughter and says "ah, but there are 7 billion other people still alive in the world, so it really doesn't matter". Now if one cared for race one could start debating starting with the benefits of diversity and the benefits of social liberalism. Then one would pull out studies and statistics, one would argue analytically and so on *sniff*. But if you do not care for the white race and white culture, /pol/ will forever be alien to you. Except perhaps in 20 years, when diversity will take a toll on your quality of life as well. If you don't care for race, maybe you care at least for security and a minimal amount of wealth. Then perhaps you'd also start taking /pol/ more seriously. However, I noticed, all of liberalism boils down to "fairness". While there are some on /pol/ who like fairness ("Germany for the Germans" etc.) most, me including, don't care for fairness at all. Here again is a conflict that cannot be resolved with reason. It's essentially deeply rooted in personality. My theory is that deeper family attachment leads to more radical right wing ideals, while a loose family ethos leads to a more individuality-centric ideology.

RaHoWa

>you're a cuck!

I mean how can you even counter such a profound argument?

With 'you're a racist misogynist homophobe. You're basically a STRAIGHT WHITE MAN".
Duh.

Yes, that's the point. /Pol/ doesn't care for fairness. We take sides. What triggers us is that people who think they fight for social justice, equality, fairness, logic, the good fight etc are basically just like us, but on the other team. If they realized how similar to us they were, maybe peace would be possible. Peace by mutually agreed upon segregation.

And then there are the rest of us, the majority, who just want both polarizing sides just to shut the fuck up and fall asleep in their garages with their cars running just so we can get some peace and quiet.

But caring about race does not equate to logical argument.

Mostly /pol/'s threads on race go something along the lines of the following:
>waaah white women fuck black men, aren't they whores
>hurhur blacks have low IQ/asians have micro penises

>I'm going to blame a big jewish conspiracy for my failures as a human being
>white civilisation is the only one that's ever contributed to humanity
Anyone who disagrees or even points out exceptions to those threads is immediately called a cuck/jew/whatever

Can you imagine if you took both polarised sides and made them live in a remote island together?

Not fairness. You don't care about rationality, reason or logical argument.

Can we watch from afar?

Better yet, Veeky Forums's next book!

Why does /pol/ keep searching validation in Veeky Forums?

The same thing happens in Veeky Forums its like /pol/ tries to find allies in their autistic crusade. Sopt being so needy, no one else cares about that.
