>the best metaphor for modern politics/geopolitics, where automata continue on a decontextualized struggle roleplay devoid of meaning but continued for the sake of continuity, appeared not in /lit/, but in a bad japanese game about a samurai French maid running around in her underwear with her bits out.books to cope with this?
>>24965709Just jerk off to the rule 34 before coming to /lit/ and embarrassing yourself
>>24965709isnt part of NieR that the weird decontextualized roleplay performed by the automata is strangely more human than the androids who coldly work for a humanity that has died a long time ago?
>>24965838that's another element sure, but the continuation of the cold war pantomime despite the West celebrating democracy while freedoms are taken away at every opportunity facing off against the hypercapitalist Chinese communists undergoing turbo inequality while supposedly championing the peoples economic interests is more what I was referring to. it also works with domestic politics, with upper middle class communists fighting immigrant/poor white pro-aristocracy chuds. its the model for the times.basically, shadows/copies of the former greats duking it out over nothing in a nonsensical battles, like the anroids and machines fighting a war for the humans/aliens that have long since passed away.
>>24965915Caring about or even acknowledging politics in any way is one of the most soulless activities one can engage in. Do better.
