My guesses are: Emily Bronte, Joseph Conrad, Ford Madox Ford, Jack Kerouac, Celine, Kafka, Hemingway,Rimbaud, Lautréamont, Baudelaire, Evelyn Waugh, Sappho, Charles Dickens, Marx, Hesse, Mary Shelley,

Also, let's be honest, we'd want to have: Lady Murasaki, George Eliot, Joyce, Goethe and Dante... but these guys would most certainly NOT post on /lit/

Why do you think Joyce wouldn’t have posted here but Papa would have? I would think Papa would have preferred the travel boards

Joyce was into the spoken language, drama, music, too much for me to imagine him being a regular poster on /lit/. On the other hand, Hemingway is much closer to /lit/, because he was much more insecure and existential -> perfect for /lit/ and his bipolarity and fear of not-fitting in, in an authentic way really describe the anon crowd.

Our French Republic is no more than a great gullet swallowing the negroizing of the French at the command of the Jews. Our governors are a clique of sadistic yids and yellow-bellied masons sworn to swallow us up, to bastardize us further, to boil us down by all the grotesque, primitive means of inter-mixture, part negro, part yellow, part white, part red, part monkey, part Jewish, part everything.

I visited Paris earlier this summer. On the train from the CDG airport to 'downtown,' the train became swallowed by a sea of black and brown skin, with some dreadlocks and hijabs thrown in. I was absolutely disgusted.

Anywhere there are Jews, there will be policy to the detriment of the European races living there.
