This level of cognitive dissonance is honestly astounding. Houellebecq criticizes the French and the immigration and growing tensions in the Nord-African communities only served as a tool. Submission was originally even supposed to be about Catholic faith. Why do you brainlets even come to /lit/ when it's that hard for you to come up with a rational argument?

Houellebecq
>It's a fact, I mused to myself, that in societies like ours sex truly represents a second system of differentiation, completely independent of money; and as a system of differentiation it functions just as mercilessly. The effects of these two systems are, furthermore, strictly equivalent. Just like unrestrained economic liberalism, and for similar reasons, sexual liberalism produces phenomena of absolute pauperization. Some men make love every day; others five or six times in their life, or never. Some make love with dozens of women; others with none. It's what's known as `the law of the market'. In an economic system where unfair dismissal is prohibited, every person more or less manages to find their place. In a sexual system where adultery is prohibited, every person more or less manages to find their bed mate. In a totally liberal sexual system certain people have a varied and exciting erotic life; others are reduced to masturbation and solitude. Economic liberalism is an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society. Sexual liberalism is likewise an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society. On the economic plane Raphael Tisserand belongs in the victors' camp; on the sexual plane in that of the vanquished. Certain people win on both levels; others lose on both. Businesses fight over certain young professionals; women fight over certain young men; men fight over certain young women; the trouble and strife are considerable.

I'm pretty sure the original term is "paroi" (which refers to an indoor wall, or more generally to the lateral limit of something; the word doesn't seem to exist in English) and not "mur" (wall).

My point is that "parois" in French is not as bizarre as "walls" in English (to describe a pussy). It's not meant to be a very special or inventive expression in French.

"Walls" may provide a good image in English, but it looks like a purple prose effect, and Houellebecq's style is anti-purple.

We could talk about nice Muslims had the "refugee" crisis not happened.
The actual nice Muslims, the ones genuinely willing to integrate themselves into secular and democratic society, they are the people who the asylum system should be reserved for in the first place. However, that ship has sailed a long time ago.

Nowadays the difference between the average "nice" Muslim and the average nasty one is that the nice ones will only become vaguely threatening and hostile if you dare to try and engage with him in a discussion about the behavior of his people and the nasty ones are going to become openly threatening and even physically violent.
When push comes to shove, who do you think the "nice" ones are going to stand next to? Their fellow Muslims or the secular white Europeans?

Could say the same about New York, Berlin, London etc.

Parisians aren't as rude as people make them out to be. If you speak French you're golden, but if you at least make a passing attempt people will humour you, and be kind.

This is the most convenient way to argue with strangers on the internet. If I write a big wall of text xe will just ignore it.

It isn't. It comes from the autistic compulsion to cover every single innane conjecture rather than just speak in terms of the argument itself.

London's only a shithole if you actually have to live here senpai. A national Britbong characteristic is to care more about the opinions of strangers than of people we actually are close to and that tends to show itself in the way we treat tourists

Essentially /lit/'s ambassador to /r9k/, although I can't work out if that's an insult or a compliment

He's gonna be one of those social critics like Doug Stanhope who'll probably only get the recognition they deserve posthumously

If you try and ignore the shitposting, distilled /r9k/ is actually disturbingly insightful. all the REEEEEEE ROASTIES GET OUT silliness is pretty much ritualistic at this point

Apart from the fact they're all infantile nercissists at heart.
Houllebecq at his heart clings to the idea that there has to be a better way, they just obsess with the idea that they should be better.

i actually wouldn't mind this if it also wasn't a form of reclamation that deliberately locked the white working class out of its system through constantly inflating costs of living
in reality gentrification largely panders to sheltered bourgeois rats
