/LIT/ FREE FALLING

[Anonymous No.12933461]

I posted a thread about this board's quality having dropped tenfold over the past months. Well I posted one (1) message since then and I got 7 absolutely moronic replies.

I should've been more specific ; It's the "cringe" posters that comprise the majority of the pollution on this board. You cannot type a two sentences+ post without being replied to 'cringe' at least a dozen time. Now, I know the hordes of decerebrated, low focus will cringe at any format that isn't a 30sec video curated for their oestrogen-fueled cognitive machine, but come on. If the mods don't step it up in the next few weeks, I will literally annihilate this board. The zoomers and shitposters successfuly did it without ever getting banned, so it won't be too complicated. Simply type "cringe" anytime someone posts a thoughtful reply. Posts memes everywhere. Create unrelated threads.. Basically just do unto others what they do unto you. Maybe the last 3 intelligent posters will get the hint and jump ship.

seriously, how much of a failure do you have to be to shitpost on /lit/ lmfao? I quit shitposting when I turned 15.

There's two possible scenario:
-Either you're 14 and a complete failure who shitposts on /lit/ (coming to this board if you're a teen.. lmao)
-You are an adult and therefore an even bigger failure, get laid

You can't even formulate a reply to these kinds of posts because there is nothing of intelligence to be said. it's not even remotely funny, engaging in any way..
You LITERALLY have to be 15 to think this is not the lowest, most vulgar form of bait humanity has ever seen.

No, it's the /pol/tards. For some reason hordes of them came to /lit/ after the NZ shooting and the board immediately went to shit.
I think it happened because someone linked a /lit/ thread talking about the manifesto to /pol/. That's the only reason I can think as an explanation. /Lit/ used to be a very slow board, but now it's filled with dumb garbage threads constantly created by /pol/ crossposters. Just look at the catalog now.

It was simply bizarre, this drastic overnight shift. It's as if our precious board one day woke up transformed into a disgusting overgrown cockroach. All we can hope for is the metaphorical apple in the back to put it out of its misery.

People have been saying that /lit/ is declining in quality for as long as I have been here. It's been shit for years and years.
"Cringe" is just a new shade of shit.

I've been on this board for a while. "omg /pol/ is invading/" has been a recurring occurrence.

[Anonymous No.12933734]

could it be governmental institutions trying to destroy one of the only 'free' place on the internet? I'm not saying /lit/ is where new ideas are born, but it's certainly a place where they are shared.

The drop in quality correlates with:

-Pewdiepie's book review video
-4chan/channel split
-aussie terrorist attack

The fact that I'm getting 'cringe'd at everytime I post a thoughtful answer could very well mean that some institutions are trying to delegitimize any type of intellectual content.

Seriously, this. any sincere contribution just gets handwaved by some guy posting a 2 word reply like an edgy zoomer. well, it isn't all that bad. it's so shitty here that I'm quickly losing interest (all of 4chan honest to god, the last year has seen a complete erosion of whatever quality had remained). I'm actually spending more time reading and writing if nothing other than from boredom.
discord is cancer and I don't know any other decent site. guess I'll just writefag until I can get published and live the /lit/ lifestyle.

I have been here for almost a year and either the quality of the board has sharply dropped or I just noticed how shit it is. Since that whole butterfly drama my visits are only restricted to checking the catalogue once or twice a day and realizing that there's no quality content. /lit/ is pretty much on par with /tv/. Most posts are just a picture of the philosopher of the months with the text "lol what a brainlet" attached to it. This might be the worst board on 4chan due to the overall smug and pretentious attitude of its users who are ignorant of their own ignorance.

you're right, i suppose. i enjoy the theology threads here, despise shitposters, and long for more literature threads that aren't dumb kissless handholdless virgins memeing on DFW or whichever instathot poetess their teacher makes them read. /lit/ is pretty far gone but what can i do about it.

What you are witnessing is the ADHD epidemic in action and the gradual decrease in IQ in western countries. In a couple of years I doubt the average poster on /lit/ will even be able to get their knowledge from youtube or wikipedia.

This board is so bad we've had like 5 threads in the past months with hordes of zoomers acting like France isn't the country with the biggest literary tradition, to the point where they would claim that Russia topples France. Little do these illiterate fucks know that the Russian nobility spoke french and the entire russian lit tradition was built upon the french.... We've reached extremely worrying levels of ignorance

Well, I agree heartily, OP.
But where can we go?
As someone here noted, zoomers are taking over the internet. I hate social media, it's a dead end.
Today I got a warning. I'm a genuine, traditional Catholic and on a thread about Catholic lit, I had just mentioned sedevacantism (and, ironically, there's a LOT of great literature on this topic). So thread was deleted and I got a warning that my post "was not about literature." Well duh, I referenced several authors in the post. I think the problem was with my "ultra conservative" point of view. So, I'm happy to leave here, too. But where can we go?

[Anonymous No.12936476]

Traditional Catholic here. Sedevacantism disqualifies you from being a Catholic, and the Roman, Greek, Russian, Syriac, and all Churches in communion with the See will refuse you too for rejecting apostolic traditions. Basically, you got banned for not calling a Protestant a Protestant, a clear sign one can't read. You can go to any board that won't insist you use a dictionary.

The last time I came here with any regularity was 2015. /lit/ then was a shadow of its former self, but even then it was a beacon of light and promise compared with what I see today. Nobody seems to know any literature other than the 20 memebooks of the month, even the memes are weak, and an already slow board has become glacial. /lit/ is dead, I'm afraid

I know, and I don't know where to go. I deleted all my social media last month. Yes there are private facebook groups but I hate the interface. I hate instagram. I almost want an old forum site or mailing list site, private, for like 20-40 individuals. The problem here with lit is there's a lot of noise, a lot of dumb talk about memebooks and your typical crap, and when some obscure but good book is brought up there's nobody who can talk about it intelligently and these posters aren't into reading it, they just like their memebooks. This place is dead.
