From Infinite jest:>"Everybody is identical in their secret unspoken belief that way deep down they are different from everyone else".From The Pale King:>"The assumption that you are like everyone else and everyone else is like you. That you are the world. The disease of consumer capitalism. The complacent solipsism".So which one is it, big man?

midwit shit
>>25124946There's no contradiction here. He says that on the surface, people act like everyone is the same and some even believe it. But in reality we're all different.
>>25124946Proof DFW is a fallible mortal who wrote like a robot. I'm sure the consequence of this post is that DFW will never be discussed here again.
Reminder that DFW killed himself and that you shouldn't be reading any of his neurotic crap lest you want to end up in the same way. Which way is it? It's both and neither! Neurotic dipshits love a good paradox to obsess over. The man was famous for wearing a bandana because he was constantly sweating. He created more pseudo problems than he solved with his dogshit writing.
>>25124946its almost like the dialogue is being spoken by a fictional character and the author might not completely align with the beliefs of these nonexistent people.
>>25124946I'd kill myself too if this many of my readers were mindless automaton puppets like you.
>>25125097i deliberately misinterpret DFW in order to shit on him because he is a hack and watching his glazers seethe is absolute kino
>>25125280stick to anime and video games
