>Now kid what are you doing over there with the niggers and the apes? Why don't youstraighten out and act like a white man?—After all they're only human cattle—You know thatyourself—Hate to see a bright young man fuck up and get off on the wrong track— Sure ithappens to all of us one time or another—Why the man who went on to invent Shitola wassitting right where you're sitting now twenty-five years ago and I was saying the same things tohim—Well he straightened out the way you're going to straighten out—Yes sir that Shitolacombined with an ape diet—All we have to do is press the button and a hundred million moreor less gooks flush down the drain in green cancer piss—That's big isn't it?—And any man with white blood in him wants to be part of somethingbig—You can't deny your blood kid—You're white white whiteSo many things to talk about with this guy. I think he's a hateful conniving homosexual sex criminal, drug-ruined mental case, and inveterate liar, but also a genius. What say you?
>>25123986twas a funny meme man but poor writer with limited subjects
>>25123986He was an active sodomite and practicing witch. Better to avoid.
>>25123986Cerebral HIV
>>25124002pretty much, i remember reading junky and naked lunch and thinking this guy is great and something different, then you read more stuff and realize its all just the same merely packaged differently, sometimes not even that. Still fond of him and think he was the best of the beatniks
>>25124429>picrelWhere did the image of the stereotypical beatnik come from anyway, since afaik none of the original Beats ever dressed like that? I know "beatnik" is a perjorative too and that that's not what they called themselves.
>>25123986Well jeeze Ton, I dont know… I guess I say killing your old lady is probably wrong. And what about that other thing… yeah with the Kid in Africa, yeah the slave boy, the one child raped and killed. I don’t know Ton. I just don’t think he’s our kinda guy, ya know? But to each their own. I just do what I’m told. If you say he’s alright, he’s alright…
>>25124429>>25124443Beatniks are separate from Beats, they are the younger generation of 60s-70s hippies who were fans of Beats like Jack Kerouac and Alan Ginsberg etc, and specifically had leftist or socialist sympathies, hence BeatNIK as per the then contemporary Soviet Spacecraft Sputnik
>>25124458He did all that shit, saw others do it too, and reported on it. He’s an evil guy for sure but he does blow the lid off
>>25124460I see. Thanks for the explanation, homes.
>>25124463If you’re a fag and want to read about this stuff with a sense of saudade aimed at harder more visceral times, in the same way chuds like reading journals of colonial officers mass executing brown ppl you be my guest. But just know this is capeshit tier thrill schlock for fags. It’s not lit.
>>25124474Well yeah its more of a collection of jokes, sex and drug experience short stories. What would you consider proper lit in this category?
>>25124443dont know, but in dharma bubs kerouac once describes himself wearing similar stuff like those>>25124460thanks for clarifiying, i never really did pull a line between them,
>>25124460The Beats were beatniks and vice versa.The "-nik" suffix just means "agent," or "person," and is applied to proponents of various social movements. See also "peacenik," "refusenik" etc.
>>25124536Desolation Angels is essentially the sequel to Dharma Bums right? Because DA picks up while he's still on the mountain in Washington state. I skipped a lot of the poetry in that book.
>>25126058no idea, havent read it
>>25123986Soft Machine is a great book, I agree. Really funny, and its composition is surprisingly mature and fluid.You’re not gonna get much out of the retards on here, though. Bunch of loudmouth boobs that get filtered by the cut ups.
>>25126254Thats what i think. Its great stuff
