I’m a Kafka
>>24942589You're a faggot
>>24942589Nice to meet you, Kafka, I'm Dad.
>>24942589I'm one of them, but I honestly can't figure out which.
>>24942589Right is based. Left is cringe.
>>24942589Dosto didn't think he was better than everyone else, whoever made this "meme" is an illiterate who never read him.
>>24942711i think it's more about theur characters. raskolnikov thinks he's better than everyone else.
>>24942589in practice these are usually two sides of the same coin. but as this guy says >>24942711, that screenshot is just illiterate engagement bait so who cares.
>>24942684AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA*jumps into water and drowns*
>>24942763Ok.. that's only one character... what about all of the others, retard?
>>24942589Which author is the choice for "average person but society is the problem?"
I'm more of a Samantha.
>>24942709Both are based for speaking their minds.
>>24942812Notes from the underground is the best known example, but there’s no lack of arrogance in a lot of his characters
>>24942589Both feelings are completely related btw, to all the retards picking sides. You experience both if you experience either.
>>24942768>>24943089Wtf is wrong with m*n and why do they become like this?
>>24943191You will never be a woman.
>>24943085Keep ignoring all of his other kinds of characters, moron.
>>24942589>jewish neuroticism vs snownigga neuroticismi'd rather be black thank you very much
>>24942589Neither. I'm abroad and the culture here just doesn't fit me. Back home I'm more of a Kafka.
I'm lonely because I'm very idiosyncratic. I don't really attach a value judgement to it
>>24942589The right. I have never experienced the left.
>>24943251>asks for specific type of characters >y-you’re ignoring all the other types!Okay retard
>>24943533You have.
>>24942791Lmao
>>24942589People sure are seething about good old Dostoy, but he never felt like he was better than others. Quite the opposite, he always beat himself down over not being able to live up to his ideals.
>>24942602Lmao
>>24944006>posting AI shit I fear for the future of /lit/
>>24942711It's just pseud intellectuals
>>24942763Raskolnikov only thinks that for about 10 pages
>>24942589I am a Ignatius J. Reilly person
>>24942589Hubris and self hatred are two sides of the same coin. I don't feel like the worst person in the world, nor do I feel like I'm better than everyone else.
>>24942589I'm not lonely.
social media dudes really want to feel smart by namedropping authors they've clearly never read and it's embarrasing.
>>24942812>>24943251ivan karamazov and pyotr stepanovitch too
>>24942589I'm better than Dostoevsky but worse than Kafka
>>24943291kek
>>24943291>snowniggasniggers*
>>24944001Are you suggesting a superiority complex is nothing more than the other side of the shitty coin of an inferiority complex??! Because if so, I would agree with you. :)
>>24944940it wasnt that funny
>>24942589If you are alluding to Dostoevsky’s worst novels, then, indeed, I dislike intensely The Brothers Karamazov and the ghastly Crime and Punishment rigamarole. No, I do not object to soul-searching and self-revelation, but in those books the soul, and the sins, and the sentimentality, and the journalese, hardly warrant the tedious and muddled search. Dostoyevsky’s lack of taste, his monotonous dealings with persons suffering with pre-Freudian complexes, the way he has of wallowing in the tragic misadventures of human dignity – all this is difficult to admire. I do not like this trick his characters have of ”sinning their way to Jesus” or, as a Russian author, Ivan Bunin, put it more bluntly, ”spilling Jesus all over the place." Crime and Punishment’s plot did not seem as incredibly banal in 1866 when the book was written as it does now when noble prostitutes are apt to be received a little cynically by experienced readers. Dostoyevsky never really got over the influence which the European mystery novel and the sentimental novel made upon him. The sentimental influence implied that kind of conflict he liked—placing virtuous people in pathetic situations and then extracting from these situations the last ounce of pathos. Non-Russian readers do not realize two things: that not all Russians love Dostoevsky as much as Americans do, and that most of those Russians who do, venerate him as a mystic and not as an artist. He was a prophet, a claptrap journalist and a slapdash comedian. I admit that some of his scenes, some of his tremendous farcical rows are extraordinarily amusing. But his sensitive murderers and soulful prostitutes are not to be endured for one moment—by this reader anyway. Dostoyevsky seems to have been chosen by the destiny of Russian letters to become Russia’s greatest playwright, but he took the wrong turning and wrote novels.
>>24942589Honestly I can see why Kafka never wanted any of his work published. I thought it was edgy and cool when I was kid but now I can hardly stand his woe-is-me pansy ass crying interspersed with his weirdo gooner fantasies of fucking some poor servingwoman or whatever.
>>24942589me too
I’m a Georg Trakl >The murderer smiles palely in wine,Death's horror grips the sick.Excoriated and naked, the nun praysBefore the Savior's agony on the cross.>The mother sings quietly in sleep.Peacefully the child looks into the nightWith eyes that are completely truthful.In the whorehouse laughter rings.>By candlelight down in the cellar holeThe dead one paints with white handA grinning silence on the wall.The sleeper whispers still.
>>24942589Why did these two authors in particular attract so many pseuds and retards?
>>24942791this is the kind of shitpositng that keeps me from leaving this board
