Let's see him even TRY to critique Super Ramon!

>>4934
He would probably want to take Ramon cock, just like Nuzach wants.

You hate Stephen King for not being left-winger enough
I hate Stephen King for being way left-winger
We aren't the same.

I hate Stephen King because his stories are fucking dogshit regardless of his politics.

Pretty much the appeal of Stephen King is that he's a fucking weirdo, and his writing veers off into absolute nonsense more often than not. You're not blowing anyone's mind by critiquing Stephen King.

>>4959
I think there is more nuance, many of his books are just MID, his new books since the later 2000's are crap, he is definitely overrated, but I don't think most of his stories are as bad as said by some, especially his short stories.
Much of the people I see by saying that his books are pure crap are other writers, and I must be honest, after reading their own books I say they are quite bad as well. See EmptyHero.
>>4961
He's a boomer faggot with daddy issues and obviously sexual frustrations and a sense of physical impotence, since it is a weakling that was bullied. The same can be said about many other famous boomers writers, for example: G.R.R Martin

>>4964
Having read a few of his books, you can tell he really wants to fuck kids. It always comes up somehow.

>>4972
More like he wants to fuck young and hot woman, since his wife is UGLY as hell. His son and his dyke daughter are the ones wanting to have sex with kids.

>>4974
Older teen girls, and younger boys I think are his type.

>>4980
I don't recall of any "sexual" writing about young boys. And I read The Dark Tower and The Shining, two of his works with young boys.

Once again another zoomer destroyed a writer.

I can't wait to zoomers becoming the main writers, imagine all the kino literature we will be getting!

>>4988
Twitter posts will be officially recognised as literature in about 20 years.

>>5003
So nothing will change, Trump would stay as an amazing writer.

>>4988
>>5003
They are using ChatGPT, a few hours ago my sister told me that the zoomer who works with her said that he wants to be a screenwriter and he is using AI to write the scripts for him and for some reason he thinks this is a great achievement for him.

>>4927
Horror genre is not rocket science, however when he said:
>he wrote mean words
Can't believe King showing support to Hillary Clinton wasn't good enough.

>>5070
There's never enough for mentally ill left-wingers.

Literary circles whose main hobby is pretending to be serious critics have always been dominated by faggot pussies. Even back in the 1950s, a Lovecraft "scholar" was already shittalking "The Terrifying Old Man" as glorifying xenophobia when 1) the old man was not even depicted to be some sort of saint or even to be in the right, he is the de facto monster of the story and 2) the three immigrant robbers were depicted as trying to be as least violent as possible. If anything Lovecraft was nowhere near as racist his anti-fans wish he was.

I think this guy is a millennial, he used to be a guy with beard and a wife, now he's a tranny

>>5106
Most women are bisexual when they're younger, the only thing that's changed is they are now "identifying".

>>5107
Women are not bisexual, that is another modern, liberal, Jewish subversive "truism."
Women have wombs and eggs. A dick shoots the sperm from his balls into the vagina, which fertilizes the eggs, and the egg then incubates and grows in the womb. A child is then born. Those are the two destinies of men and women.
No amount of leftist, Jewish pseudoscience or resentment can change that fact of nature. They can "identify" according to leftist or Jewish precepts until the cows come home. Nature does not care.
As for Gen Z, they are twice as kiked as millennials, and that is saying something.

>>5108
You're not getting his point and what you were saying isn't a rebuttal at all. The fact is women are much more open to experimenting sexually, especially when they are young girls, and often the easiest experimental partner they can find is another girl. Most of them do grow up and leave this phase behind but some do not and turn into full-time dykes after being convinced that they were that way from birth by that same jewish propaganda you were talking about.

Also, supposedly heterosexual women still vastly support the LGBTQ rights thing even if they aren't actually woke on other issues.

>>5104
>>5106
Lmao
Look at the transformation, Ramonbros. That's why I say, men with cats usually are a redflag.
A man with cats, who love hedgehogs and with an obsession for Japan = Will troon out 100%

>>5106
While colon cancer cases have skyrocketed, but the biology book you've read is obsolete.

>>5135
I had seen the FAT KNOWLEDGE meme floating around but this is the first time I actually have deen the original post

>>5136
also that's the same guy responsible for turning aragorn and gandalf black in the latest set

>>5136
>>5137
I hate what they did with Runescape and MtG and other small, niche hobbies and IP's.

I have zero idea who any of these writers are

>>5154
Majority are woman

Can someone here actually reply the anons? Where's the book experts????

>>5169
I very rarely read anything written after WW1 unless it's nonfiction.

Boomer sisters… everyone hate us

What about angloids?
His only five stars book is Roots, so I guess he is a Louis C.K fan.

>>5109
>supposedly heterosexual women still vastly support the LGBTQ rights thing
modern white women who have been gulping up propaganda from birth aren't a reference you can use to deduce anything about the essence of women, anon
go and ask women literally anywhere else in the world, or white women before WWII what they thing about lgbtp degeneracy and you'll see

I hope you now understand Zach that we "Nazis" were your only true allies.

The eternal anglo always back stab each other. in this case a trannyangloid vs a jewish angloid

When Stephen King will be cancelled and called out as a pedo like they are doing with Cormac McCarthy?

>>4927
I can tell this is objectively incorrect without even listening to it

>>6099
Stephen King is a mediocre writer, not just because of all the verbosity and boomerism, but especially because of the predictability and bad endings.
And he was the main writer who pushed the magic negro and badass women in pop culture.

British women like this deserve to be torture and killed by zoomers and immigrants.

This thread just reinforces my hatred for Brits, especially those with the dark hair and dark eyes phenotype.

Big Bengali Cock, SAAAAR.

Dumbing down American readers

By Harold Bloom, 9/24/2003

THE DECISION to give the National Book Foundation's annual award for "distinguished contribution" to Stephen King is extraordinary, another low in the shocking process of dumbing down our cultural life. I've described King in the past as a writer of penny dreadfuls, but perhaps even that is too kind. He shares nothing with Edgar Allan Poe. What he is is an immensely inadequate writer on a sentence-by-sentence, paragraph-by-paragraph, book-by-book basis. The publishing industry has stooped terribly low to bestow on King a lifetime award that has previously gone to the novelists Saul Bellow and Philip Roth and to playwright Arthur Miller. By awarding it to King they recognize nothing but the commercial value of his books, which sell in the millions but do little more for humanity than keep the publishing world afloat. If this is going to be the criterion in the future, then perhaps next year the committee should give its award for distinguished contribution to Danielle Steel, and surely the Nobel Prize for literature should go to J.K. Rowling.

What's happening is part of a phenomenon I wrote about a couple of years ago when I was asked to comment on Rowling. I went to the Yale University bookstore and bought and read a copy of "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone." I suffered a great deal in the process. The writing was dreadful; the book was terrible. As I read, I noticed that every time a character went for a walk, the author wrote instead that the character "stretched his legs." I began marking on the back of an envelope every time that phrase was repeated. I stopped only after I had marked the envelope several dozen times. I was incredulous. Rowling's mind is so governed by cliches and dead metaphors that she has no other style of writing.

But when I wrote that in a newspaper, I was denounced. I was told that children would now read only J.K. Rowling, and I was asked whether that wasn't, after all, better than reading nothing at all? If Rowling was what it took to make them pick up a book, wasn't that a good thing?

It is not. "Harry Potter" will not lead our children on to Kipling's "Just So Stories" or his "Jungle Book." It will not lead them to Thurber's "Thirteen Clocks" or Kenneth Grahame's "Wind in the Willows" or Lewis Carroll's "Alice."

Later I read a lavish, loving review of Harry Potter by the same Stephen King. He wrote something to the effect of, "If these kids are reading Harry Potter at 11 or 12, then when they get older they will go on to read Stephen King." And he was quite right. He was not being ironic. When you read "Harry Potter" you are, in fact, trained to read Stephen King.

Our society and our literature and our culture are being dumbed down, and the causes are very complex. I'm 73 years old. In a lifetime of teaching English, I've seen the study of literature debased. There's very little authentic study of the humanities remaining. My research assistant came to me two years ago saying she'd been in a seminar in which the teacher spent two hours saying that Walt Whitman was a racist. This isn't even good nonsense. It's insufferable.

I began as a scholar of the romantic poets. In the 1950s and early 1960s, it was understood that the great English romantic poets were Percy Bysshe Shelley, William Wordsworth, Lord Byron, John Keats, William Blake, Samuel Taylor Coleridge. But today they are Felicia Hemans, Charlotte Smith, Mary Tighe, Laetitia Landon, and others who just can't write. A fourth-rate playwright like Aphra Behn is being taught instead of Shakespeare in many curriculums across the country.

Recently I spoke at the funeral of my old friend Thomas M. Green of Yale, perhaps the most distinguished scholar of Renaissance literature of his generation. I said, "I fear that something of great value has ended forever."

Today there are four living American novelists I know of who are still at work and who deserve our praise. Thomas Pynchon is still writing. My friend Philip Roth, who will now share this "distinguished contribution" award with Stephen King, is a great comedian and would no doubt find something funny to say about it. There's Cormac McCarthy, whose novel "Blood Meridian" is worthy of Herman Melville's "Moby-Dick," and Don DeLillo, whose "Underworld" is a great book.

Instead, this year's award goes to King. It's a terrible mistake.

Stop shilling your channel, child. You must be 18 years or older to be here.
