>there are no comfy lit jobs anymore or in fact any lit jobs that pay a decent wage apart from a small number of university positions or in fact being a moderately succesful writer
>everything with decent salary moved to IT

That is a good thing

why?

lit jobs are part time jobs which are paying just enough to stay alive in a small apartment while writing, reading, and day-dreaming in your free time

They really dropped a big enchilada on you

Science is usefull. And Will eventually create a better world. Lit is and hobby.

Like internet and smartphones created a better world?

ay dios mio indeed they did

They did. You now have free access to most of the knowledge avaible. If u use them to Watch dwarf porn is your fault.

Did you have a stroke mid-typing?

It's almost as if your mind is painting a simplified version of the world's complexity, like a draughtsman would do at a bureau.

It is a simplified version. But the progress are there.

The Holocaust is proof that we use technology in such an irrational way

Yesterday i shoved a pen into my ass. I think we should focus on pencil from now on.

join a monastery

We should focus on the fact that progroms were never as effective as the Holocaust because they lacked the rational efficiency that the German apparatus displayed thanks to technology instead

Ignore this materialist poster, he won't understand user. He's too tied to "rational progress" and great holy science.

The Enlightenment, man. We will never stop arguing about this stupid shit until we don't get rid of it.

The Enlighentment was hardly perfect - we replaced serfdom with materialist capitalism which just makes people seem freer when they are in fact just dependent on a new class of overlords. Materialism and capitalism just make people lonely, destroy communal values and leave a selfish and unenlightened society of plebs in their wake. I'm not telling you to Ride the Tiger but fuck man, things are hardly amazing.

Enlightement turned into an age illuminated by LED screens.

I'm not an Evola fan at all, I'm totally on the other side of the political spectrum really, but I think you actually hit the nail about communal life. The Enlightenment wants us to be alienated to let us imagine we live in a free society. I still think we should move back to the land at some point.

Holy shit there's more of us. This is how I feel as well - I really do mean you shouldn't #RideEvola'sDick, but I think people who really want to embrace "leftist" principles like freedom and equality have to abandon some of the hyper-individualist, anti-communal, materialist principles of the enlightenment. Wage slavery is essentially still slavery, and the enlightenment , like you said (and I said), only creates the illusion of freedom.

Exactly! And one way to overcome our differences to get rid of the left-right paradigm, which was created just to divide the oppressed and the oppressor

Libraries existed before 2006, user.

There never have been.
