Thoughts on this based old pederast?
>>25014403Based but the cut-up technique got tired quickly. I enjoyed Cities of Red Night but he had to be too Burroughs-esque at the last part, which made me lose interest. Going to read the Western Lands soon, though.
Interesting guy, minus the gay shit.
>>25014403Not as entertaining as Edgar Rice Burroughs.
>>25014403>lefty who kills wife, bribes judge, is let off the hook in the states because is left, says sorry, immediately moves to Africa to fuck slave boy who he also kills, which he also gets away withHe is literally an egregore born of everything conpiracychuds believe about lefties, who was somehow cast back in time.
>>25014656Or maybe faggot lefties are serial killers in waiting. Stereotypes exist because they match reality.
>>25014656Burroughs wasn't a lefty, retard. You're the same anon spouting this in the last Burroughs thread, aren't you?
Based on his writing, if he hadn't killed his wife, no one would know who he was.
>>25015458>Homosexual drug addictSounds like a leftie to me
>>25014540Cut-up applies to the philosophy of language itself. Meaning and intent can be extracted. There is no 'random' in language. Traces remain. Burroughs was a more concise Derrida. In fact, he wrote of the schizo-discource before it was cool with the Frenchies. America is always ahead. But, you have to understand his main thesis was FREEDOM (pure american ethos) and exiting control. He may not have achieved it but that was his underlying motif. No one has balls anymore.
>>25015533Wow you are genuinely retarded
>>25014656He was a libertarian, retard
The world drifts toward random insect doom
>>25014403My eternal boy and the progenitor of my style.
>>25015533Is your IQ in the 80-90 range?
>>25015396He was right-wing, like most 21st century homosexual writers..
>>25015607>he wasn’t left!There’s a billion videos on the internet of every commie from 1950-1980 fawning over him as the godfather and hero of the revolution, he’s brought up by everyone anarchist and commie writer on firing line, nice cope though
>>25016100*20th
>>25014403i like his ideas but his prose is so underwhelming, unless he's talking about guys cumming as they're executed. you can tell he puts his all into those scenes. really presaged the internet with those.
>>25016328Commies also idolise Dostoevsky and Nietzsche
>>25016100>>25016341He was the archetype for the twenty-first century schizoid man.
>>25016381>mother was a literal leader and stood for election as a American communist party candidateIt’s like lefties think no one reads but them.
>>25016480I'm FAR RIGHT.
>>25016480Based AI misinformation reposter.
>>25016482>im far right!>I love this junkie who killed his loving wife so he could fuck teenage boysWhat is your understanding of the word “right” exactly?
>>25016500BEAUTY. VIOLENCE. MASCULINITY. THE WILL TO POWER.
>>25014403I read 3 books. Junky and Naked Lunch, I think they both lived up to the hype. Queer was kind of bad.
>>25015543Underrated.
>>25014656>>25015533He was libertarian-conservative (the through line of his politics was anti-authoritarianism).
>>25016504
You can't really appreciate Burroughs until you've heard his Thanksgiving Prayer available on Youtube. One line to give you the flavor:thanks for the KKK, for nigger-killing lawmen feeling their notches, for decent church-going women with their mean, pinched, bitter, evil faces
>>25016701Is this supposed to put me off him because he is le woke or some bullshit?
>>25016573It's my impression that Naked Lunch is just pure, unadulterated nonsense. Is that true?>nonce senselol
>>25016328He wasn't leftwing. He was libertarian-conservative. >>25016480No she wasn't. Burroughs's parents were rich WASPs.
>>25016504based mishima anon
>>25017169No. Like sure it's insane and convoluted with minimal plot, but you won't forget the experience. It's helpful to think of it as an anthology or a collection, but if you're coming in with an A then B then C mindset you'll have a bad time.
>try put on your wants when this guy shows up and says don't try it"This ends. Now."How do you respond??
>>25015607>what if your wife consents doe
>>25017333Anon, you might want to call an ambulance because I think you just had a stroke.
>>25017346If you think that then you must risk an aneurysm reading Burroughs
>>25017360You're retarded and bad at writing. Simple as.
>>25016756Anybody who thinks a heroin user is a conservative is really not thinking at all.
>>25017608Conservatives use stimulants
>>25017608is this really how feel about drugs? how old are you? do you get out much?
If Burroughs were alive today he would defo be a Democrat voter FYI.
>>25017608Being against drugs is a liberal superstition. Ernst Jünger used them extensively. They are a traditional religious experience. “Conservatives” are just golems (Whig puritans)
>>25017631This. He would not awoo and anyone who thinks otherwise is kekable
>>25017608explain RFK jr?
>>25017631He wouldn't vote at all>Democracy is a disease and the bureaus are it's cancers
Besides his wife and Kiki, how many other people do you think Burroughs killed?
