/lit/ - Literature

>why are the curtains blue, anon?
>it's the author's favourite colour, professor.

>“It’s hard to win an argument with a smart person, but it’s damn near impossible to win an argument with a stupid person.”

>“Never argue with stupid people. They will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.”

These quotes are just pure brainlet cope. If someone's dumb, then you should have no problem winning an argument against them. Unless you're saying that you're even dumber than they are? People use these all the time to justify anti intellectualism and not wanting to hear another side and it's just sad.

>God as either of these Abrahamic faiths assert (or Christianity for that matter) does not exist.

Who else is a dishonest, sophist, debate chad like me? Our strawmen can never be knocked down, our non sequitur are enough to bait any retard into going down our rabbit holes where we can beat them into submission, our logical fallacies can never be called out simply because our opponents are too retarded to or they are simply too weak to call them out in favor of being baited once more. We use our unending creativity to get our superiority, and not out of factual truths.

We will ALWAYS be smarter and more creative than those who demand we argue in good faith or be sincere or truthful.

'Character arcs' 'development' and 'depth' are all meaningless platitudes that result in mediocre writing.

What is the most /lit/ suicide method?

>Why yes, my favourite historian of antiquity IS Livy, how did you know?

How do I deal with the extreme amounts of newfound knowledge I have acquired? Most people are now below me.
