What's your biggest gripe with the /lit/ community?

C'mon, lay it on thick. It's been bugging you, I know.

People who complain about /r9k/ and blog posting on /lit/. You came to arguably the most articulate board, full of nerds who read nerdy books, many of whom are aspiring writers, and then got mad when it turned out that some of them were not so good at talking to girls.

Like >>10866818 said, plus Christposting, traditionalist larping and marxists who aren't smart enough to keep up with Marx.

The critique threads and the horrible “insight” given by armchair writers who couldn’t tell their Cock from a pencil.

>> No.10867047

Overreaction to SJW culture leading to preemptive dismissal of anything by women or non-whites (Japanese are honorary whites). Not everyone here is like this, but any post discussing something by a black person (for example) will be drowned out by unoriginal screeching about niggers. It's a shame because there's good stuff out there that's never going to be well-known by normies, either because it's too weird/niche/difficult or because there's something """problematic.""" The only reason /lit/ is worthwhile at all is because most other places where you can discuss literature conflate quality with accessibility and a lack of anything that could be construed as objectionable. The militant reverse idpol is stifling and turning /lit/ into a mirror image of what it claims to hate.
I don't really expect this to ever change, it's always gonna be 4chan.

I never post in the critique threads any more. I feel like no serious writer would.

Why wouldn't we complain about that sort of thing? Tfwnogf posting does not belong on /lit/, since it has nothing to do with literature or philosophy. It is objectively, irrefutably off-topic. We don't want it here, and we don't like the people who post it here. Go to /r9k/ if you want to whine.

uneducated people. seems like most posters these days have been here for a week and need recs on which platonic dialogues to start with

>> No.10867202

>>10866596
Is there actually anything worthwhile about the board now? I usually check it out because years ago some posters were actually insightful, and now every thread is easy bait.

I feel like I both should and shouldn't tell you to read The Sorrows of Young Werther, but my suspicion that you mispronounce the author's name makes me inclined to recommend it heartily.

/r9k/ is trash. And it's not just "tfw no gf" it's "tfw no /lit/ gf". Anons want to moan with other Anons that share their interests and/or taste in women. Also, you posted a frog.

the fact that you think your infantile nogf posting is anywhere near on par with werther (an inferior work, by the way), goes to show that the world would be better off if you just stopped reading and holding on to those embarrassing literary pretensions of yours

It's really not that hard to make the oe sound. Even backwoods hicks can go it for Goering, if you put in a modicum of effort you could stop spazzing out so much about not being able to talk about German Romanticism with any intelligence.
