Idk Nietzsche never really thought that far out when he wrote his works for calls-for-action. You can see this manifested too in the Nietzschean circles online, who preach Nietzsche to each other, where they'll say what YOU should do is to gain a lot of money, have sex with whores and die, a belief no more different than the Last Men in Frederick's anthropology. As Dimes Blood Satellite said in his book podcast (would recommend, it's very /lit/ and schizophrenically political) Nietzsche only wrote for Christians of his contemporary time and didn't actually think of writing anything for anyone who actually believed in him. Such a conundrom created what you see now, anyone who takes the philosopher seriously really do live hollow lives.

You're a fag. Thanks for having a trip so I can filter your posts though.

>no u
I understand that you cannot see your position. You have a fantasy about what upperclass people do, look like, and have in their living spaces. Your fantasy does not match the photo. That's the math, the subtracted part exposes your unfamiliarity with wealth. It carves out your demographic. You don't see any of this because you're a stupid faggot =) In other words, watch what you say. It's telling!

kek this bitch has always been a walking argument for how badly homeschooling your kids can go. what 90's moral panic book is she cherrypicking to show that reading and writing are worse nowadays than ever before?

After a quick search she makes
>feminists mad
>trannies mad
>tripfags mad

>libtards mad
>tumblr mad
>chuds mad

so she must be worth checking out.

>>25604025
She has a mild scent of lower class within her, I will state she is well groomed for her rank. A serf is still a serf though
>>
>>25604212
>Educators increasingly rely on short texts, digital excerpts, and reading drills rather than entire novels due to shifting attention spans, standardized testing pressures, and heavy reliance on screens.
People are worse at reading and writing though. The decline started in the early 00s and began sharply accelerating in the years between 2010-2015.
>>
>>25604238
she made that one fag crimenewroman sperg out and make a 2hour response video to her.
>>
I do not follow "Booktok" or "Booktube" or other frivolous social media movements or personalities, however, if she is advocating for maintenance of discerning standards and a return to the rich tradition of Western literature at the expense of popular trends, then I must applaud it, for such an approach is all too rare in the realm of contemporary mass entertainment.

>>25604030
a Youtuber powered by massive flagons of coffee who explains in hour-plus long videos why she's sick of modern book slop, especially chick lit

>>25604238
her criticisms and the way she presents them are eminently valid
even if I don't agree with all the things she says, only most, she certainly makes me very thoughtful
>>
She was right. An attractive woman, and an intelligent one, too. Are we afraid to say it? I’m not. I’ll admit it: she is truly beautiful and erudite.
>>
>>25604376
i mean shes not bad looking but also not quite good.
maybe a 6 on a good day,pretty eyes tho for sure.

Fixed it for you.

>Scully shows pictures of each individual that is subverting literature

Very nice, desu.
>>
>>25604015
Her poetry is pretty good however she has some gall criticizing contemporary litfic and romantasy whilst writing a fantasyslop novel
>>
>>25604468
she mainly criticises their content and moral depravity, not their plot structure and prose
>>
>>25604287
I've never heard of that person but from the little I've now learned about Hilary it sounds hilarious.
>>25604373
That's all you need sometimes. Not everything has to be a dry 3 hour lecture about prosody in 17th century British literature.
>>
>>25604491
Then she's a pseud
>>
>>25604550
A pseud would do the inverse of what that anon said.
>>
>>25604376
she's like 45, based on how she uses the light-contrast on her vids
hnnnngnggg
>>
>>25604573
she mentions having children in school, so yeah
>>
>>25604573
She's a pale red head. They generally have nice skin if they stay out of the sun and don't end up covered in freckles.
>>
>>25604403
You're gay as fuck. She's very pretty.
>>
I want booktubertards killed.
>>
>>25604403
for a white woman in her 40s post multiple children, that's fine
I'd take her any day over a blown out nipped and tucked 25-year-old ozempic'd Hollywhore

I was going to start a /fit/ thread on advice on CUTting as I already achieved my goal of benching 225lbs for several reps (my max PR is 240lbs :p), but the MOMENT I tried to post anything on 4chan, the bloody site went down for, idk, 20hours. This stupid thread was the last thing I could see.
>>
>>25604636
It's an AI you fucking idiots. It's not a real person. The first clue should have been how she never once pauses to search for words or concepts, and is more eloquent than Harvard professors.
>>
>>25604687
>you can't just be enunciating clearly and precisely when reading from an eloquently-written script in a video conspicuously edited to remove unnatural pauses BECAUSE YOU JUST CAN'T OKAY
>>
>>25604687
it's called video editing mate
>>
You can tell she's either in denial about a certain Frankfurt school or carefully skirting about the issue.
>>
>>25604015
It's her most chud video yet. I can't take her seriously in any capacity
>>
>>25604703
how is she wrong though?
>>
>>25604015
Is she right that only the greeks and romans can be classics and maybe some medieval writers?
>>
>>25604710
that's not what she said, but that's her style; she's putting forward a controversial statement with a deliberately-limited selection of examples, and when you say "but what about X" that's when you fall into her trap: "precisely, that is why X should be a classic"
and I already know what X is in this case

I do not entirely agree with the video but it is a compelling argument. it's deliberately left incomplete however for the reason above so there will always be apparent holes in it. she will fill it up in time I think.
(that's how she handled previous theories, and it does seem like it was keikaku all along)
>>
>>25604710
In the western canon, yes.
>>
The point was to make you think.
TO MAKE YOU THINK

Has she read Spengler?

6 7!

yes

nice PR anon. I just hit 285 today, that's the most i've benched in ten years. you should make a /fitlit/ thread.
>>
She makes Reddit and booktubers seethe, which, admittedly is a poor reason to like someone, but she’s also a qt redhead which is an excellent reason.
>>
Seems respectable, if clearly with a reactionary bent. I wouldn't have expected it from a female youtuber to be frank, but her views seem rather right leaning, but in an intellectual manner, traditionalist
>>
>>25604833
>She makes Reddit and booktubers seethe, which, admittedly is a poor reason to like someone
No it isn't.
>>
>>25604833
I like her because it's rare for a woman to be this articulate or make these kind of points without overt pandering. Even her video about men is clearly coming from a woman trying to understand. She sees a problem, but she, being a woman, lacks what has to be an intrinsically male solution. All she can do is observe. And that is what she does.

I do think her videos about heroes and fantasy are her best. I don't think I've ever heard or seen anyone academically break down the problem with modern "heroism" and genre fiction nonsense. Her calling even the likes of Cook and Morcock "dark" fantasy slop peddlers wasn't what the usual pseuds go for.
>>
I hope she sees this thread lil' bro
