Any literature out there that discusses the death of discourse?
>>25308700The closing of the american mind. AKA 9pm on a pg13 stie
>>25308700Discourse died because of frogs?
>>25308724The frog in my garden is a sophist.
>>25308700I love frogs :)
>>25308700Foucault
>>25308700There's not enough literature addressing the issue of frogposts on 4chan. Pynchon and DeLilo are still alive, maybe they can do something about it
>>25308700Did people ever think there was any level of discussion whatsoever, especially when all the people you are pretending to "discuss" things with are toad posters that call themselves (and wrongfully believe to be) Anonymous and half of the contraddicting mutually exclusive takes are likely to be made by a single individual?
>>253088724chan was a fine place for discussion before the 2010s. I know I know, you won't believe that 4chan.org existed>before you found it>before frogposting startedBut it was a better place.
>>25308700i know the answer but i won't tell you, it's just not worth it
>>25308877well the point is that the current iteration of 4chan is obviously not the same as old 4chan, if if doesn't even remotely resemble the old thing then why are people here bitching about it? nobody keeps you here at gunpoint, door's open
>>25308724Some people on the website are completely traumatised with the frogs. If those same threads had different images op wouldnt have any problem with them
>>25308897Nobody keeps YOU here at gunpoint, you can’t speak for everyone else
>>25308922but I'm not the one who's complaining about the state of 4chanall I did is point out that the whole structure and culture of this place are opposite to an environments that promotes "discussion", is that a controversial take now?
It's usually the same frogs on a rotation with a slight alteration by the right eye to dodge filters.
The lack of censorship makes 4chan a better place for discussion than anywhere else on the internet
Frogs are the future.
>>25309831>4chan>Lack of censorship lol, lmao.
>>25308700Better this than a billion low quality marxist threads When I make threads talking about books hardly any one responds. I made one calling progressives anti human (which is generally true, if you look at the consequences of what they believe) and it did very well before jannies deleted it (of course lol). You people WANT inflammatory slop. Be the change you wish to see on the board and report + ignore off topic shit.
>>25308897It's not that different except for third worlders and ai spam, which have severely degraded average post quality imohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDrz2LGMVwA
>>25308724Yes
>>25310097call me biased (or retarded, depending on how you look at it) but I would rather read ESL third worlder rambilngs parsed by AI than another first world made up """"problems"""" threadthird worlders at least have to go outside once in a while, don't ask how I know
>>25308897Because the entire internet is this way, friend. Consolidation and all that. There is nowhere to go and we are far beyond Web 3.0+.
>>25310106It's not so much that they're in a "wrong" place just that their English isn't great and I suspect they're more susceptible to spam tactics where someone posts a picture of a hot girl. I just realized I'm also mentally including Germans in this lel.
>>25310106Do they though?
>>25309831And also brings social rejects that got banned on reddit and other places
>>25309831>lack of censorshipLmao. Try badmouthing israel or the mods. The leak from last year revealed that at least one of the mods works for the ADF and that others worked for the CIA.
>>25310730>Try badmouthing israel or the mods.What are you talking about?Anons do both of those all the time
>>25309831>The lack of censorship You can't be serious. This site is barely half decent compared to the other chans; it's just that this is one of the only okay-ish places to talk about literature. The rest are dead.
>>25308803frogcault
Sometimes I have too many frogs on the log at once so I can't post my latest quality discussion thread.
>>25308700I read notes on the death of culture by mario vargas llosa a few years back and what a wild book that was, that was mario talking about the old literary culture of the boom or something like that
