I was reading fairy tales and they reminded me of the “brainrot” videos children watch today
>>25332130How?
>>25332134They’re nonsensical and have weird creatures. These stories are read to children and were gathered from common people
>>25332130You don't know what you just wrote.
>>25332140Also they’re repetitive like variations on a meme
Your favorite book might as well burn with all its copies, and people would forget it. Most fairytales are never written down, yet their exact plot structure is retold century after century (if not millenia) through oral tradition. You must have been smelling too many farts of authors to believe books are not the real brainrot.
>>25332146That's how I know I've cooked.
are you gay
>>25332140Its literally a giraffe tho
>>25332178It seems like superstition put in people’s heads from somewhere else. I feel that this is confirmed with tung tung tung sahur
I've noticed this too. Things like people willingly hacking their children or spouse or siblings or friends to death to solve a problem just because some gnome told them to... and then the murdered characters just come back to life, as if that makes it morally acceptable. These are a direct predecessor to Spiderman and Elsa videos.
you guys are retards

Listen to her quiet, ancient, wise voice.>Don’t think the fairy tale is a childish diversion, not worthy of the attention of a grown man. And don’t think that adults are smart, and children stupid. Don’t imagine that an adult has to “stupefy” himself to tell a story to a child.>Is it not perhaps the opposite? Aren’t our minds the source of most of our woes? And what is stupidity, anyway? Is all stupidity dangerous or shameful? Or is there perhaps an intelligent kind of stupidity, something desirable and blessed that begins with stupidity but ends with wisdom? Maybe there are two kinds of stupidity? One comes from blind self-contentment, the other from a healthy skepticism? One stupefies with pride and leads to vulgarity, while the other stupefies through humility and leads to wisdom…https://nicholaskotar.com/2016/12/02/spiritual-meaning-stories/
>>25332130As opposed to the brainrot cartoons you watched as a kid?
>>25333940I’m saying it’s the same, they call it brainrot now
>>25332130I remember Einstein said that if you want your kids to be as clever as him read fairy stories to them.So perhaps we have a generation of brainrotted geniuses on the way up.Thanks silicon valley.

>>25332140They're usually meant to be allegorical moral lessons, that random animal vpuld be really mean x and whatnot. At a glance it could seem that way.
