Yes, but more by skin color and gender than by looks

>>15400037
Sartre had a damn interesting personal life

>>15400037
Not usually. Normally what's worth reading endures beyond the life of the author and what they were like. Heidegger for example.

>>15400037
I dont care about the looks only the content i can relate to.

>>15400278
>frequented commie pals but never professed being one
>spent his whole life hallucinating frogs bouncing after him
>after all the thinking his greatest realization was: dude, everything is too much man

>>15400278
it was especially based how he and de Beauvoir groomed her students

>>15400037
Physiognomy, yes. I only care about the thoughts of ugly men. Attractive men don't think because they don't need to.

>>15400037
plenty of based uggos like Houellebecq tho

Yes i dont read books written by females

>>15400037
Yes, but specially philosophy

>>15401783
I heard woolf was based is it true?

>>15400037
Of course, Sartre was also a gigamanlet.

>>15401792
She hated men but was pretty cool. Up there with Simone Weil and Emily Dickinson in terms of based women writers

>>15401800
Are there any based manlet writers? I know that Keats was 5' tall and he's my favorite romantic poet

>>15401818
Faulkner, Houellebecq, and Pope come to mind. I'm sure there are many others.

Don't want to read books written by frog nonces
Simple as

>>15400037
Kind of fucked up to judge someone for an eye condition that got worse as he grew older. He didn't even look that bad when he was young.

Are you going to hold Junger to the same standard and post him as an old man and say "hurdur muh physiognomy!"

>>15401962
Cont. obviously Sartre wasn't super good-looking even young, but his ugliness is mostly exaggerated by his eye condition. I kind of feel bad for him for it, not really something you can control.

>>15401981
I have amblyopia too (and permanent vision loss in one eye), and I'm scared shitless of this happening to me. My mom ended up developing the Sartre eye over time despite looking normal in her teens

>>15401717
he was literally arrested for being a commie you dumbass

>>15400037
No but I refuse to read anything written by a pedo

>>15402033
That sucks, pal :( anything you can do to prevent it?

>>15402272
he could just bee himself

>>15400037
Yes.

>>15402272
You can do therapy, and there are some fairly new surgical procedures now, but once my brain starts ignoring my bad eye completely then it's pretty much game over. I might just wear an eyepatch like Joyce

Worst part is that if my optometrist diagnosed the condition as a kid, then most of the effects could've been reversed. But he was an incompetent retard

>>15400037

Both. Yes.

>>15402417
Hey, your optometrist is not at fault for your bad genetics. Blaming others for your own shortcomings will lead to long lasting unhappiness. Grow up, tripfag.

>>15402551
Based. Gonna tell doctors that fail to diagnose cancerous growths to blame their patients for their shitty genes instead. "Malpractice? Shut up bitch, maybe if your cells knew how to properly divide you wouldn't be in this position in the first place"

>>15400037
Normally I judge each author individually unless they are black or female, or black female, I discard those straight away.

>>15401962
such a hairline at 120 years of age, that's supreme genes

>>15401962
This is peak great grandpa performance though.
Looks like a statue of an old man.

>>15401818
>>15401800
junger wasn't tall either though

>>15400037
yes. very much so.

Nausea is a book about ugliness and neurosis. And Sartre was also a sewer-rat commie.

Junger saw beauty even in war, in the trenches, in the tragic nature of life. He was brave and based.

>>15402033
If that happens you should just wear a patch.

I think he looks alright without the eye

>>15402944
posted wrong pic

>>15402950
>>15402944
But then he wouldn't have confronted the negatite of his eye from the for-itself that separates the in-itself; how else could he be an authentic being?

>>15400037
Nah, that's gay.

>>15403003
he wears clothes, how can he be an authentic being with clothes?

>>15403012
The clothes serve as for-itself that negates the in-itself of the primacy of being as we require to be a being that is being in modernity. The being in modernity is the modernity in being.

>>15403022
blablabla is all I hear, didn't really read

>>15402417
do the eyepatch, that'd be pretty epic

>>15403024
>he can't understand sartrean phenomenology

>>15400037
Peak pseudery, no. You're not going to fuck them, faggot.

why are you retards acting like physiognomy = sexual appeal? That's only one dimension of it.
For example here Sartre looked like a smarmy bullshitter bug.
Junger looked aristocratic.

>>15403059
physiognomy is a pseudo-science and only pseuds care about such things.

>>15403103
post face, teeth, height and body.

>>15403217
post dick

>>15403254
>>15403217
post tibia length and liver weight

>>15403263
3.3 hands, 3.5lbs. Yeah, I know, I got a dummy thick liver.
Post upper brow ridge protrusion length, and circumference of arm wingspan.

>>15403029
Who gives a shit. That goblin couldn't understand Heidegger anyway.

>>15400278
not really. just another soulless bourgeois loser. too low iq for philosophy. no principles. got mad at anyone who attempted those with due gravity. never stopped defending communism and the ussr as his trendy academic identity, probably didn't even understand either. overall really pathetic.

>>15402861
Hence why I said gigamanlet

>>15402646
That is not analogous. Development of cancer is strongly linked to environmental factors, as well as genetics. Your fucked up eye is 100% on you.

>>15405484
It's still malpractice isn't it, if his thing was treatable? And cancer does have a large genetic component to it

>>15402088
your arested for being stupid fuck ass

>>15400037
Never.

>>15400037
Only on the title.

Seriously though, what did the Greeks mean by this?
