We can make /lit/ great again if we make a concerted effort as a board. Part of what made old /lit/ better was the gatekeeping 4chan boards did more generally to keep newfags in line.
Sage and report off-topic threads and give the OP and anyone who bumps it shit. All philosophy, religion, and politics threads that do not cite specific texts are off-topic.

The issue is that the anons in good faith are too overwhelmed. I agree it needs to be a concerted effort though. I say fuck it, and bump good threads even if you can’t effortpost, just give your opinion. Gotta get those lower quality posts coming back before we see great effortposts again. There’s no incentive to take the time to compose a well thought out post that’s on topic when it will just sink to the bottom of the catalog. Shitposters invade every thread now.

They had no interest in reading, nevermind literature, and scared away the anons that were into literature.

/pol/ mostly would have stayed on /pol/ but the discord trannies or feds or whoever is posting incessant shit-tier bait and demoralization propaganda on that board made people leave to other boards, so now /pol/ has basically taken over and the default position for an anon is ethnonationalism or being pro-white and aware of the so-called "JQ".

The argument that /pol/ has brought in newfags is idiotic. Do people really think a bunch of anti-semitic pro-white enthusiasts came from r3ddit and youtube? that's idiotic. /pol/ was just old /b/, loads of newfags came after 2016 and many of them were redditors who wanted to defeat the evil trump-supporting nazis from 4chan, this is self-evident and makes perfect sense.

Site traffic more than doubled in 2015. Most of the new anons went to /pol/. This correlated with reddit shutting their containment subreddits.
This was also before tranny conspiracy theories were invented

This doesn't prove anything for your case, since most redditors are left wing NPCs and would be more likely to go to /pol/ to fight drumpf or whatever gay shit.
>tranny conspiracy theories
It isn't a conspiracy theory since there are plenty of discord screenshots and other leftist sites coordinating it. The question is only how far it goes. It's good to know that your level of discourse is on par with CNN though, labelling things you don't like a conspiracy theory. You have the mind of a child and have NPC opinions.

Stormfront only astroturfed 4chan in the sense that the initial raids by 4chan backfired spectacularly when Stormfronft took it in stride and realized that there was a wealth of disenfranchised youth that were amenable to their beliefs.

Character forms with a bit of resistance and a bit of comradery. There's no resistance online anymore, thus no comradery. Think about bane: if you take the mask off, will he die? The mask makes breathing harder for him, it keeps him strong. The schizophrenic explosion of /pol/ was basically the death of bane. I can't think of any large scale meme from 4chan from the last 2-4 years except for the gaping black asshole mouth of basedjak which is frighteningly indicative of some kind of pre-emptive self-selection for what's coming in the next few years. Batman hides in the rectum of his parents manor, and dresses up as the thing he hates the most. Under the mask... the son of the mask... the mask of bane... the cope mask of wojak... the mask of charicatures, like your dear frog, employed not even within fiction... the mask of anonymity manifested by hiding in a truly *plain sight*... 4chan has erectile dysfunction.
Considering how good the bots are, 4chan along with every other website is basically worthless. Yes, yes, well done 4chan - it's exactly what 'they' want. Considering everyone is braindead and now always-online, the bot-like communication seeps into the already fleshbot nature of normies and makes life truly a kind of strange simulacra.

Deep talk about books on a website like this is difficult due to the way it operates, but there was far more diversity in the early days. Classics worship and proclaiming certain titles/subjects/authors to be off-limits (via hard shitposting) has done damage to /lit/ as well. At this point, I'd be happy if people just posted what book they just finished and what they thought about it, other than "based" or "this sucks".

The funny thing is there are clear examples of coordinate spam threads and attacks, yet these dumb faggots still think anyone is falling for their tricks.

Moot was a retard for ever undeleting pol. It's a giant light attracting trannies, stormfront faggots, reddit tourists, etc who inevitably spill over onto the rest of the site. What's the fucking point of a containment board when its very existence is why more and more containment is needed?

of nowadays. There's no one "invader", 4chan quite literally isn't what it used to be, there was pretty much a takeover a few years ago. Bear in mind that, assuming the average person on 4chan in 2012 (which was when the cries of newfag already started taking off) was 18, the average person from then would be 28 and probably either killed themselves or found some way to be vaguely normal. It's all foreigners and it's all dogshit, but imageboards are a superior format for websites and this is the only non-ded one.

Browsing /lit/ and imageboards in general nowadays is disheartening. I remember various effort posters and their detailed rants. For example, I could spend hours reading Girardfag rants, accelerationism threads, some threads called space Taoism or some shit like that. These anons despite losing it sometimes , were really interesting to read and introduced me to new topics and books. I was overwhelmed and excited after that threads.

Now the same fucking /pol/ baits are posted endlessly, nobody bothers to elaborate a fucking idea and the classic post of some retard asking "what should I think of this book? " makes me roll my eyes. Where do all the effort posters go? Did they vanish? Did they kill themselves?

Internet is now a cesspool populated with swarms of retarded users incapable of building a basic idea, victims of big corporations algorithms. Of course /pol/ is part of this, the sacred knights that will save the white race are no more than an army of retards controlled by psyops spilling their shitty propaganda everywhere. These drones basically killed imageboard culture.

The future is dismal, true no longer matters, we will see more and more radicalized drones confined in their respective echo chambers. Youtube challenges, tik tok retards and of course faggots like that guy that in new zeland that streamed a shooting are proof that shit will only go worse.

4chans place in contemporary society; taking the place of the public forum due to the lack of a public forum existing anywhere else, has become a little bit like staged killing fields in siege warfare; the things that people want to discuss are generally censored but the section of the fortress fills up and the mods pur burning tar and fire arrows blindly into the crowd, then retreat back to the next section and do the same as the crowd begins to enter into that section next: with /pol/ being the entry point.

I noticed this too, I like aruging with christians, and I noticed that the threads seem to get pulled down when the argument begins to go somewhere. I don't know whether they really know what they're doing or where they think they are but it's a constant thing; censoring discussion of things has the effect of freezing the society and keeping it stuck in place, obsessed over subjects that really don't take more than 5 minutes of chatter to understand and advance beyond.

That said, I don't blame them for pulling threads which devolve into personal attacks 'after' the (christian) realizes they've been refuted and decides to derail the conversation... but other people would see this, and learn from it. From my perspective they're protecting you, number 20574043, by vanishing any instance where your tactic is able to be observed.

Probably not. If you observe demagoguery then people can only be 'tricked' into doing the easiest possible and most stupid thing, because it requires no effort. Trying, for example, to do demagoguery which involves something more than bare minimum, e.g. trying to propagandize people into being highly conscientious people, doesn't work so easily as 1) it requires way more effort on their part, and 2) it requires far more constant propaganda to "hold their hands" until they understand the usefulness of (e.g. being conscientious people). Bad demagoguery or so-called "brainwashing", then, is simple thing to put a pernicious notion into someones head and give them the confidence that they can do the bad thing and get away with it; which takes a few seconds to convey, but undoing that or trying to utilize the same method for productive purposes requires far more sustained organized effort.

The Pseudo-Nazi Propaganda (modern day, i mean) was always easy because it played upon the viceful baseline predisposition of people to avoid observing, examining and critiquing their own society and their own self and their own families, and to blame everything wrong on other groups. A lot of the propaganda there was directly anchored to those most vital and important points; "critique, analysis," which are dismissed as jewish, so if a person exposed to it did buy it and then shrugged it off they'd likely still retain a poor disposition towards "critique, analysis" and avoid beginning to learn about anything useful.

Hijacking a baseline predisposition seems to be the most common approach; playing on peoples vices and spinning the vice as if it were a virtue.

that was kind of what I was getting at, but I think you could still reverse the brainwashing effectively. it is just much harder. maybe a better analogy over all is the difference between heating a room with a radiator and cooling a room with an air conditioner. heating the room is far less complicated a process, send hot liquid through the radiator pipes and the heat will naturally disperse into the room(this is the initial indoctrination of disenfranchised youth). The process of cooling the room however is much more complicated, the air conditioner pulls hot air from the room, compresses it to heat it up, dumps the extra heat into a separate heat sink, takes the newly cooled air through an expansion process to bring it back down to normal pressure, and then dumps it back into the system (this is analogous to removing the programming from an indoctrinated person). Still doable but much more work is needed and my doubt is that any of us randos on the internet have the time or the patience to do it.

to be honest I think it's far easier to immunize with proper education than to go to the effort of curing; a person with a strucutred manner of thinking isn't liable to fall for the nonsenses they're exposed to in the first place, whilst those exposed to the pernicious notions eventually shake themselves out of it when they realize the pernicious notion wasn't working for them - of course by that time they may have destroyed their lives completely as a consequence (e.g. one twitter post from 10 yrs ago destroys their life) and so they could then end up doing a hard double-down on the propaganda they received; passing it along to others.

> my doubt is that any of us randos on the internet have the time or the patience to do it.
hence immunization through education: propaganda or bad-thinking; the kind of obviously stupid ideas that splash around in the west, are almost comedic in how bad they are and how easy it is to spot them when the brain starts to think in terms of Cause (of outcome) and Proof (of a claim), which is no great complex 'skill' and is easily taught.

Since most users are teenage neo-nazis or tradlarpers there is very very very little to discuss. Everything posted is checked by this clump of most-active users against a few dogmatic principles to determine whether it is based or cringe, and various canned insults are then returned, in a chinese room sort of fashion where one cannot say for certain if there is any underlying intelligence. Something like this happens on any forum and has always happened, but what sets the last half decade or so apart is how staunchly ideological the concerns are. Even though the users are anonymous, what they have made of that anonymity is rather shallow. What makes them anonymous isn't the lack of persistent identity; it's that the post could have come from any one of them because there is so little differentiation. They do not try to read or understand or opine on a text, but pallidly scrape it for bits and pieces they can use to signal their bona fides to other posters, who are doing the same thing. Literary otaku have been replaced by political otaku, whose prime interest is to collect and show off their inventory of beliefs.

Idiotic argument. Basic statistical analysis would show that there are far more whites than Jews in the high-IQ range in total.

No I don't care that you're "fighting the good fight against media narratives" or whatever, you are doing nothing, your posts are doing nothing, you are posting in order to give yourself the illusion that you are doing something consistent with what you want to believe you believe (although of course I am in turn doing nothing by complaining about the people complaining about media narratives).

This site is not a place where things are accomplished, the best thing it can be is amusing and occasionally interesting.
