why do these people think their opinion is worth anything?
>>7370845
Everyone's opinion is equal because it's all based on personal tastes.
>>7370849
Some peoples' opinions are more equal than others.
It isn't. Everything is worth nothing.

These kids get pampered and praised by the people in their lives for following the status quo. They should be shot.

This is such a superficial reading that you make the girl who wrote the Murakami tumblr post in that other thread look intelligent.

>waahh someone isn't and never was a lonely angst-ridden teenager who did things he hated solely for the purpose of feeling superior to the people who did enjoy those things
Salinger is a plague upon an entire generation of faggots who read his trash during their formative years.

So your hatred of Salinger stems from his fans?
Let me guess, you think Hemingway, Steinbeck, and Vonnegut are all worthless shit as well, right?
You're one of those dilettantes who attempts to make themselves seem intelligent and well-read to others by deriding easily-readable, entry-level authors you have not read or superficially read.
