the whole response to corona was artificial. it was a designed attack to destroy small businesses and community bonds. now we're seeing meat shortages, so i'm expecting them to push vegetarianism and veganism, and they will probably try to get us to eat bugs or at least grasshopper protein paste or something. it's just like 9/11, they're just going to use it as a justification to take more control of our daily lives.
i think its hilarious how they're saying "we're all in this together." all of a sudden we're on the same side? fuck you.

>What I think, fundamentally, is that you can’t do anything about major societal changes. It may be regrettable that the family unit is disappearing. You could argue that it increases human suffering. But regrettable or not, there’s nothing we can do. That’s the difference between me and a reactionary. I don’t have any interest in turning back the clock because I don’t believe it can be done. You can only observe and describe. I’ve always liked Balzac’s very insulting statement that the only purpose of the novel is to show the disasters produced by the changing of values. He’s exaggerating in an amusing way. But that’s what I do: I show the disasters produced by the liberalization of values.

I think he's wrong on that point. Here are some of its redeeming qualities:
1) targets more gregarious people
2) targets rich and powerful people who can't function without numerous servants and assistants around
3) targets old people
4) targets obese people
5) targets dumb people who don't believe in germ theory (trump supporters etc)
6) targets useless people in taxpayer-dependent institutions like prisons and nursing homes

I could go on. All told, Covid-19 is quite a salutary virus.

I've read him in French.

He's not a very good writer. Bad? No, but not very good. He only got famous because of the material he writes about, but the writing itself, well, let us say that there are at least 100 forgotten 19th century novelists who wrote better prose. Houellebecq is second-hand interesting: we care about the social issues, and this makes us care about his books.

If not for the social issues, it would be stale, New Yorker-tier prose. Imagine someone with his prose style describing a day in the life of a random Dubliner. It would bore us to death, unlike Joyce.

You don’t have a moral justification for eating or not eating animals, all you have are rationalizations that your mind created to please your ego. I assume you became a vegetarian because somebody else pitched an argument that you lacked the faculties to understand is just as baseless as the meat eaters argument, but you like the thought of being morally fashionable.

Ask me how I know you're a pseud. Imagine considering that subject matter isn't part of writing. Your hero Joyce is the opposite. Perhaps exemplary prose, but his topics of focus were so mundane and drawl I couldn't motivate myself to finish more than 1 story of Dubliners.

Its been a while since I read Houellebecq but I remember his prose being good, but just as importantly he focused on actually interesting things.

The bits with the actual fucking are complete fantasy with the hookers complimenting him and loving spending their time with him. Then he makes himself pass as a marketing genius with two-bits dissertations on society. i tried to focus on the commentary but it's just like his prose: unremarkable

I am of the view that it's "morally permissible" to consume animals if you're part of the ecosystem, as in living out in the wilderness. As a civilized individual you have the ability to get your sustenance from non-animal products, which is why the consumption of animals is immoral for any civilized person. When you choose to consume animals when there exists an alternative what you're doing is placing your appetite above that of another living thing's existence.

he's talking about the long term. He misses the most important stuff, though, which is covering economic crisis without anyone asking questions (about the fiat scam), forcing all companies to get into more debt (to make the snowball of shit bigger an bigger), get slaves to be familiar with what will be the "new normal" once they finish implementing agenda 2020/2030 (googlish communist), fear mongering in order to push global patriot act, biometric passport on chip and so.
It's a play to shape people into demanding and imploring nwo communism.
In Spain and Italy we had martial law used to pass a lot of stuff (for instance, chemtrails went from conspiracy to the law in 1 day)... and the people acted much better than the best of cattle, since they were all clapping for the regime, their forced imprison, and welcoming another 10 years of even bitter economic crisis.

I believe a push for surveillance is much more likely than a push for veganism/bugs. I don't agree that the virus was an intentional attack. It's much more likely that they are simply going to seize the opportunities that it presents.

The worst part about all this is how the NPCs are reacting. Not only are they giving the governments free reign to do as they please, they are actively trying to shame and control the people who dare question the narrative and the measures taken.

>I don't agree that the virus was an intentional attack. It's much more likely that they are simply going to seize the opportunities that it presents.
reread the first sentence. also, you're right about the surveillance thing sort of. they're pushing for biological ID databases, either by microships in the skin or by logging everyone's DNA, facial structure, or iris pattern. i don't necessarily think that this will be implemented across the board, but i think they'll start logging younger children so that in 10-20 years, they'll have a shitload of adults in the system. they already don't let you go to public schools if you don't have certain vaccines, so this is doable.
