What are the most enduring works from this scene?
>>25373362This is gonna sound so gay but the most interesting conversation I've had in years was with a Columbian red scare fan I met yesterday. Talking nonstop for hours. I met her through my other really good friend who is also an rs fan. I think Dasha is gay and that rs is for girls who were weird at school and wanna larp and esoteric bitch popular kids but the most interesting and exciting people I've met had a huge rs phase.
>>25373362Gay, demoralizing fiction for people who don't want to grow up.
>>25373362Preparations for the Next Life by Atticus Lish, easy>>25373421>I think Dasha is gay and that rs is for girls who were weird at school and wanna larp and esoteric bitch popular kids but the most interesting and exciting people I've met had a huge rs phaseUnfortunately, this is true. Someone currently in their rs phase (Dasha, cottagecore, fawnposting, Paglia, tarot, cigarettes, edtwt, etc) is infuckingtolerable, but someone who had a rs phase is almost always interesting
>>25373362One picture of Honor is worth more than the whole written corpus
>>25373481Well my old rs friend is from hk but went to international school and then moved to Europe and the other girl is from Columbia but also moved here and models. They're both very weird interesting people as well as being foreigners (like I am) so they've had an interesting life. I'm also a foreigner (and Hispanic, which is something we bond over) and we all just get along because the Internet is a real place with a genuine culture and its so rare to find people irl from that nation. I know that sounds gay, but its super weird and uncanny to find someone irl who gets all this who you can mask off around. I love my hk friend profoundly like she is my sister. She calls me a spic and I call her a chink.

>>25373421RS internet spaces are kind of an interesting phenomenon to me that I don't quite get. I know several people who hang out in chat rooms that are an offshoot of an offshoot of an RS chat room and shit like that, or I know two couples who met on some kind of RS dating site, but none of them actually like RS and never did. They're all critical of the people in these spaces too but seem to have landed there from no better alternative or something, idk>>25373362Lost Lambs was decent, it started off strong with an interesting tone and was pretty funny, but I got bored of it halfway through and the rest just kinda happened. It's the most entertaining I've read so far from the whole dimes square thing though
>>25373550as I see it, RS internet spaces (r/rs_x, r/rsbookclub, a few discords idk I don't use discord) are basically a confluence of a few things -- the person who sorts into them tends to be very into art, college-educated, mind of a woke but thinks wokes are cringe, grew up on the internet, 20s-40s, way more concerned with being perceived as "cool" than they'll ever admit. the actual podcast became too aggressively retarded and chudded out so ~nobody who actually listens to the podcast is in rs internet spaces
>>25373362I wish I could have made it to one of the parties, it sounds like they, at least, were a good time. Sadly I wasn't in New York at the time.
>>25373550Its like... how do I say "I want someone who had an rs phase but now thinks rs is gay and thinks its ok to say faggot and retard but wouldn't use those words as an actual Insult towards gay and disabled people"? Not like you could put that on a dating profile. Its just so hard to find non hylics irl and url any girls like that have a million people to pick from.
Holy fuck this thread is gay
>>25373518He cured himself from creating art, so in a way, yes.
I couldn't imagine anything more contemptible than a male "red scare" fan>ugh Dasha is so mid like yikesHalf the show they talk about shoes the rest it's slow paced boring versions of the most common conversations you see on here
Inferior in mentality and quality to the CCCRU
>>25373694That sounds immensely terrible, whatever it is. I'm guessing a horrible communist ripoff of an already stupid thing
>>25373481Wow. So the heat of the affair is insufferable -- I believe it. I'm glad I was sequestered and no one knew me during my Red Scare-phase in 2021. I like the girls, but what I learned is my Perfume Nationalist phase is permanent.
What the fuck is this thread even talking about?
>>25373897Low IQ.
Am I the only one who just straight-up doesn't listen to podcasts? Red Scare, Chapo, all this shit, even the right-wing stuff, why fucking bother? There's nothing more boring to me than listening to somebody talk at you for hours. Best I can do is occasionally listen to Bill Simmons' podcast because at least sports has the soap opera drama to be entertaining, it's like WWE but it still pretends to be real.
>>25373637And my dick is small hahahaha

>>25373550What are these chatrooms you speak of? I agree RS is cringe but RS girls are probably the only artwhores you can meet who don't get viscerally upset when you say anything mildly racist.
does Honor actually post here or is that someone pretending to be her?
>>25374745It was probably her the first time but obviously not her as it went on.
>>25374769she's hella cute
>>25374735>What are these chatrooms you speak of?He's talking about retarded Discord servers.
>>25373685That was my quick impression of them as well. Not much going on in there and a very dry, tedious sort of errata. The girl who recc'd it to me, on the other hand as others here imply, was fuckable and I should have just pretended to be a fan like the betas do. That was my first real experience realizing women cannot handle differences of opinions without seeing it as a personal attack
>>25374839>women cannot handle differences of opinions without seeing it as a personal attackThat's pretty much everyone nowadays.
>>25373489>HispanicUm, sweaty, we say Latinx here.
>>25373615>Red Scare fans aren't hylicsDamn, it finally happened. I'm too old for /lit/.
>>25373615My sentiments exactly. You'd think situational discretion would be part of common sense, but so many people have convinced themselves that such an idea is a public menace
>>25374434He bullseyed you and you are seething.
>>25374450hylic
>>25374745Honor moved on from finding 4chan interesting a while ago. This place is downstream of X, TikTok, and Instagram now. Nothing of any value is created here anymore.
>>25374450me, i only know about this stuff because of peple babbling about. All these weird people like sam hyde and dasha and whatever, i feel disgusted even knowing their name, same with streamers. Who gives a shit about their opinions. Alone the name podcast is too strange for me
>>25374773Kek. My fault for thinking it could be anything otherwise... But seeing as that subculture has a huge hard-on for y2k aesthetics I thought it could be a possibility.
kill yourself you fucking mongoloid skidmark
>>25374450Podcasts are so fucking gay and retarded
>>25374450When I listen to talking it's either lectures or audiobooks, I don't like podcasts either
