Is Onlyfans /oursite/?

For that pic in particular, The Culture of Narcissism by Lasch. Christ.

>not downloading all pics and videos as they're put up
I never share porn I've bought because A) It's usually a treat I've shelled out for once in a while B) I'm voting with my wallet for what kind of content I want to see more of, same with music, film, etc. and C) I'm not a labour-stealing piece of shit; but imagine spending money - especially THAT kind of money - on something you electively don't own. Streaming subscription services are bad enough for the fact they can pull content at any time but imagine CHOOSING not to download content you've bought access to, given the option. Lmfao

What type of porn do you feel it's worth paying for?

someone posted the whole thread and the guy says that he is disabled and can't leave his house so donating to onlyfans is the only way he will have a women interact with him. dunno if it is an impressive larp or not but women who post on onlyfans should be beheaded

>>15255931
I was quite impressed by his Omon Ra.

WHY do people spend money on porn? Consuming it at all is bad enough but spending money on it is even worse.

>>15255942

after finding out that redditors drink water through their mouths i have decided to consume water by funnelling it into my rectum and absorbing it through my intestines

i want to get out this planet

>>15255922
We need to start calling these people out again. Artistic integrity is dead in the mainstream, so we say nothing when confronted with this. We have to call them what they are: sellouts.
>>15256218 is right, there is no rational argument to pay for porn on the Internet. You can take your business model and shove it up your ass.
MAKE THE INTERNET GREAT AGAIN!

>>15256174
we all have excuses

Thank god there are still men out there

>"I know almost nobody will agree with me"

How fucking cucked are normies that "nobody will agree" that the mere existence of onlyfans is proof we're living in a nightmare? Holy shit.

Anyone else becoming more and more certain that we're in a literal metaphysical war against evil forces?

You can hire a masseuse to come to your house a lot of times for $6k. Especially if it really is just for a massage. Actually if you're on disability and can't leave the home there are probably non-profits that will help you set it up.

What do women in Finland and Norway face that they don't in Sweden lol wtf

Taken from another thread in /lit/, search says that it's from an essay called "The Desire Dominated".

"Another of it's vestigial limbs carried over to other, more complex societal forms ways is physical currency, which changes the perceptive nature of desire still contained in the act of seeing the desired object present in barter economies to a perception of possibilities of desire uncontained in the object-in-itself, but represented by other objects, i.e. currency. This brings a change in the dialectical process of the desiring being (that which is to say, man) and the desired object. Desire shifts from the imaginable possibilities of the object to the perceived possibilities of it's representative signifier - an abstraction of an abstract desire which paves the path to further abstractions, such as the one of digital currencies. The problem the state once had with the desire of it's population is then overstepped, as the system shifts from a linguistical perspective of imaginative desire to a logical-numerical one, choice becomes binary - either the subject works to obtain the representative forms of it's desire (by actively ignoring other abstract desires) or he remains with his desires unfullfilled, which in case of baser ones, such as the desire for the continuation of life, results in death. Under neoliberalism the contemporary subject became akin to captain Ahab, who without the understanding of it's real desires searches for symbolic compensation of the unsublimated in a physical object that embodies the projection of it's desires, a hunger to consume and destroy that ends only in death. Only that in this time, the whale is also illusory."

Postmodernism, or the cultural logic of late capitalism by Fredric Jameson.

As much as conservatives and fascists try to deny it the best critiques of capitalist society come from Marxists.

>>15256824
>>15256832
Baudrillard is also correct, even if he lost his marbles later in life

>>15255922
Try Brave New World perhaps. I find that Huxley's writings are more relevant than ever today.

>>15256842
That is his final book, and also his best book. Also Baudrillard is not a Marxist, if anything he's a nihilist hellbent on the destruction of everything.

>>15256868

I never paid for porn in my life. ANYONE who does that is a brain dead retard and need to khs asap.

Plato's Republic. The current world is nominally ruled by reason, but in truth, the ruling class are all filthy hedonic utilitarians, and hence, the true ruler, the kingmaker, is desire,the lowest of the three aspects of man.

Which only serves to show that Plato was wrong: reason was never fit to rule. Spirit is the only one fit to be king. Then again, perhaps the big joke is there's no surer way of becoming a fool than being the boss.

>>15256832
truth be told any conservative or fascist that doesn't respect Marx is just not educated enough in their own ideology

>>15256469
We're been at war since time immemorial. The war between God and Satan on the souls of mankind.

>>15257810

>>15256469
If one desires to shrink something, one must indefinitely expand it;
If one desires to weaken something, one must indefinitely strengthen it;
If one desires to discard something, one must indefinitely flourish it;
If one desires to obtain something, one must indefinitely give it;

It's ok. The light will win in the end. The seeming triumph of the dark, of the desire, is just the enemy foolishly falling for a feint.

>>15256516
There are three forces at work within man: desire, spirit, and reason. Spirit is the hardest one to define, but it has a definition: it's that force that allows one to act against desire.

Recognize that force in you. Listen to it. Obey it. Recognize Plato was wrong, that reason cannot rule. The current world order is the repudiation of the notion that reason can rule.

You did what? I mean what did you expect? At least we talk about him here. So what essential truth have you discovered that /lit/ is getting all wrong?

>>15258943
>>15258943
At least it was funded and I'm not in debt. There's 2 things that baudrillard is always talking about. Most philosophers hvae 1-3 things they always talk about. With Baldretard it's quite obvious who's read and understood his works and who hasn't. It's like people calling Nietzsche a Nihilist Nazi; it's apparent they haven't understood his work

>>15255959

Nietzche wanted European culture to metamorphose into something enlightened and modern, and he wanted it to unify into one nation, thought I'm sure europoor anons who hate that idea will deny it. Rate my half-assed analysis, nerd

>>15259028
You mean funded by teaching right? You didn't have grants to research baudrillard the whole time? Mine was in a science and I still taught two years. Also you didn't say the 1-3 things.

>>15259249
>You didn't have grants to research baudrillard the whole time? Mine was in a science and I still taught two years. Also you didn't say the 1-3 things.

No I had grants, I taught to make extra. Baudrillard's work always comes back to the same two ideas. That we are disconnected from reality to the point that it is unknowable (Simluacra, operational doubles, structural law of value, impossible exchange, oribtalized values), and he has a second set of ideas that cover things (fatality, seduction, the symbolic, reversibility, duality, the game, etc) that the engendering of simulacra inherently attempt to do away with, but still haunt the system.

That's one of the lamest things about the current year is we're all so committed to enacting this mythology of progress that we refuse to accept and commit to misery.
Picture an eastern european country under the soviet bloc. Get all the aki kaurismaki shit in there, the drunk guys, the lame fucking square buildings that only got hot when they were completely abstracted from their cultural context, keep the dirty snow on the ground, and now think about what's missing from the list. Lines of whores.
Whoring and stripping is what women do when the economy is shit, when there's nothing else for them to do to make money. If you're a good looking girl without any prospects, this is the option.
At least pre-2000 we had the intellectual and emotional honesty to be like "ah those poor women. I wish the wall would come down and they could find nice dignified jobs where they could keep their clothes on, maybe at a factory or something."
blah blah blah all work is undignified blah blah blah come on the very definition of humiliation contains nakedness. People don't dream about repetitively twisting nuts onto a screw in front of their shitty high school, they dream about forgetting their pants. You have to be a total autist not to see the difference.
But we indulge these autists with opinion pieces in our finest rags (failing NYT for example) and cush jobs in academia, we talk about how "sex work is real work" and that dread ur-meaningless hyperneoliberal idea, "empowerment."
We can't fucking face the music, we continue to rinse out our devastation, we even wax political about the modern day equivalent of lines of whores all over the place. Sure technology adds a nice pine scent but come on, it's only a matter of time until one of these chicks gets stalked and murdered, and that will definitely break the secure illusion this company is trying to project which anyone with eyes can see through. This is "sex work," just like any other job where a big powerful boss lets you show bits of yourself to nasty old men in exchange for a cut of the baby's diaper money.
Which means we haven't hit rock bottom yet. In an addict sense, I mean. We still have depths left to plumb, and that's what I don't like about it. That and I personally think hard times make good art, force introspection, and I crave a cultural turnaround aesthetically speaking but that's just personal taste.
