Is he the only patrician booktuber?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ov1lHKeukg
Kind of sad if he is.
>>7512338
Why? I think he's pretty good.
his sophomoric pauses make me gag
>>7512331
That's the first booktuber I actually enjoy. And I didn't know him. Thanks for introducing me to this guy.

He looks like Ed Ricketts, the real "Doc" in Steinbeck's novels.
>>7512331
He is handsome
I've been following his stuff for a while, he's good.

Definitely not bad, but anyone who says Houellebecq is their favorite writer is by no means a patrician.

Pick one.
>not having oxford girl's videos playing on a loop as your desktop image
At 1:38 he literally says:
>"The truth is Michel Houellebecq is the greatest critic of Western Culture that I have yet to come across. (insert look at camera, dramatic pause) He's one of the only writers I've found to actually take the notions of Love and Sex and tried to determine whether or not they're actually good things. He takes them very seriously. As they should be taken."
*pic related*
I mean...are love and sex actually good things?
>Genius
Jesus fucking Christ.
>>7513924
Welp.
Tell him to read Macintyre and Aristotle.
>>7513583
Knew they were patricians,
>>7513924
I think in the context it refers to the liberated sexuality and free love that came after the hippie-acid-fuckfest half a century ago.
Makes it less retarded - by no means genius, but less retarded.
>>7512331
There is just something so arrogant and pretentious about him.
>>7513986
In the context I was referring to, it was the sheer idiocy of the thought that he's the first writer or "critic of western culture" to decry the notion of liberated sexuality and free love.
That's been done. A billion times before. For millenia. I think I might have even dismissed it if he didn't have such an obnoxious and elitist attitude in his presentation like >>7513989 describes.
I'm watching a couple other videos of his and they're even worse.
Then again, it's a big problem I have with a lot of people here as well as in any literati-esque group in real life.
>>7512331
You're not totally shit, but stop spamming your channel m8.
>>7513827
Houellebecq is at least aware of being just a sad, pathetic product of his times, unlike many other contemporary authors bent on proving that they're some kind of authority on all issues.
>>7514182
>Houellebecq is at least aware of being just a sad, pathetic product of his times, unlike many other contemporary authors bent on proving that they're some kind of authority on all issues.
>Houellebecq is at least aware of being just sad and pathetic.
FTFY.
>>7514238
If that makes you happy, then ok, but I see nothing wrong with my statement. Yeah, he writes the same book every 5 years, looks like a limp-wristed, homeless faggot and is perhaps unfairly hyped as a defining author of his generation. So what? I still enjoy his books, his jaded cynicism, the inert rage.
>>7514274
>I see nothing wrong with my statement.
I don't give a shit about your statement because you like Houellebecq. You and Houellebecq are certainly not patrician, in any way, shape, or form.
>Yeah, he writes the same book every 5 years, looks like a limp-wristed, homeless faggot and is perhaps unfairly hyped as a defining author of his generation. So what? I still enjoy his books, his jaded cynicism, the inert rage.
You could have just said "He's French."
>If that makes you happy, then ok
>unlike many other contemporary authors bent on proving that they're some kind of authority on all issues.
What author doesn't try to do that? At least, of authors who attempt greatness? Houellebecq? No. Houellebecq doesn't think he's some kind of authority on all issues? Bullshit. He's just trying to prove he's some kind of authority in a different way.
You're doing the same thing. We all are. Everyone here. Everyone, every day.
I choose not to wallow in my own misery and arrogance that I'm better because someone as embarassing to himself as Houellebecq is, thinks they understand what it means to be sad and pathetic. And how sad and pathetic becomes patrician is beyond me.
Houellebecq is embarassing, disgusting, and gross. Jesus Christ, man, have some class. Have a modicum of pride in yourself. Take a shower. Do your laundry. Put down the cigarettes every now and then (I'm not saying quit, I'm saying breath some unfiltered air every once in a while.) Try and get laid by someone other than a cheap hooker in one of the countless slums around Paris.
Houellebecq is the French Bukowski, and the last thing either of them are is patrician.
>>7514182
I agree and I don't dislike Houellebecq. Just saying he's not the patrician choice for "muh favsies."
>>7514387
>Jesus Christ, man, have some class. Have a modicum of pride in yourself. Take a shower. Do your laundry.

I wanted to make a sincere reply, but you seem to project too much, so I won't bother.
>>7512331
I don't know anymore, but ever since he moved to LA I've been fighting every urge to find him and enjoy the caves of his body.
>>7514415
>you seem to project too much, so I won't bother.
And there it is. The classic misdirection of someone who's finally realized they're wrong.
He's pretty awesome desu I like his taste in books and movies

Favorite living writer m8.
>>7512331
You didn't really think about the premise of that clone book you were talking about. I don't see how being able to clone yourself erases tragedy and all that other shit from the human experience.
Paper-thin analysis is not patrician.
>>7514532
I'm just trying to find other booktubers man. No one else has suggested any.
>>7514525
There are better living writers than Houellebecq (and they're not necessarily popular/well-known on /lit/, nor are they necessarily writing in English)

>>7514912
Well, I think most of /pol/ go into it thinking it's gonna be explicitly Islamophobic (especially considering Houellebecq's early work and comments) and it's not.
>>7514925
It's satirical though right?
Or goes into the banality of religion as a system of control. I just wanted a contemporary writer
>>7514916
Sadler's a pretty cool dude, definitely one of the better philosophy channels on youtube.
Check out Wes Cecil if you enjoy Sadler.
>>7514932
It is satirical, but he's more pro-Islam in ways /pol/ wouldn't expect.
He's basically calling for a Catholic-Muslim alliance and saying Islam is preferable to liberalism. I think /pol/ is more Deus Vult! Race war now!
>>7514947
I'll check it out. Sounds like he's more misleading than DFW
Jesus please don't let BTF be a meme
>>7514947
>and saying Islam is preferable to liberalism
Weeeeell, it's not that straight-forward. He also satirizes people who would prefer islam because they'd have it better under it (multiple young wives etc).
Why does lit hate houellebecq so much?
I'm starting to think that a patrician is only an idea, a chimera. A patrician doesn't exist in real life, it's a level that is unattainable. I have posited this by seeing the endless disagreement amongst lit anons
>>7514952
He's not really misleading. Read his The Paris Review interview. He pretty much tells you the entire novel's themes in the interview.
> But only the Muslims are in an actually schizophrenic situation. On the level of what we customarily call values, Muslims have more in common with the extreme right than with the left. There is a more fundamental opposition between a Muslim and an atheist than between a Muslim and a Catholic. That seems obvious to me.
> But in the end the Koran turns out to be much better than I thought, now that I’ve reread it—or rather, read it. The most obvious conclusion is that the jihadists are bad Muslims. Obviously, as with all religious texts, there is room for interpretation, but an honest reading will conclude that a holy war of aggression is not generally sanctioned, prayer alone is valid. So you might say I’ve changed my opinion. That’s why I don’t feel that I’m writing out of fear. I feel, rather, that we can make arrangements. The feminists will not be able to, if we’re being completely honest. But I and lots of other people will.

>>7514960
It's a double edged sword. He get's alot of warrented publicity because he's good at what he does and deserves the exposure. The downside is... well you've seen the quality of /lit/ memes.
>>7514966
/lit/ hates Houellebecq about as much as it hates DFW
>>7514966
Because he's not that great of a prose writer (although you could argue this is intentional) and his ideas are sound but have been articulated better by others, inside and outside of France.
>>7514971
>implying he wasn't just misleading them there
he's a master ruseman t'bh
>>7514916
>tfw that was me
>>7514963
It sort of is that straight-forward. It's like he suddenly watched a couple Alain Soral videos on youtube and changed his opinion of Muslims.
>>7514940
Sadler's only 1/4 through the Phenomenology of Spirit and he's been at it for almost two years. Good God
>>7514975
Meaning it says it hates them but in reality loves them and has all their books?
>>7514993
He's incredibly based. Haven't watched his Hegel lectures cause I already studied him.
His lectures on anger are great. He's got great taste in philosophy.
>>7514983

>>7514998
Meaning DFW and Houllebecq are too easy to read.

That's not exactly setting a high bar, is it? If I have to read one more paper about Freud and the internal contradictions of capitalism in the work of ______ I'll fucking kill myself. The ingredient list on a water bottle is "good" in the sense that I'd read it over academic literature.
>>7514692
Put's on latex gloves and just gives it (as in, like, assaults) to a homeless person whom he pays a meager $420.69, which he finds hilarious however juvenile, that sadly doesn't even cover his visit to the clinic after reconstructive maxillofacial surgery.
This thread started out well...
>>7512331
He's okay. I kind of wish he'd start reviewing lesser-known books. It seems like all his videos of late are just paying lip service to novels that are already part of the literary canon. A few months back he reviewed a book by a photojournalist, but everything else I've seen him review has already been reviewed to death in other media. I mean, there's not a whole lot of new ground to tread in a review of Blood Meridian or Stoner.
I want to see him review something contemporary that hasn't already been celebrated by professional literati. The Knausgaard review was close, but he still went for an easy one.
Though I believe he gets most of his suggestions from his viewers in the comments sections. So the blame goes two ways.
Still charismatic and fun to watch, but he doesn't really present anything new or particularly interesting in his reviews.

Arreola is an anomaly in the Mexican canon.
Obviously his early work was influenced by the realism of Reyes but his more mature stories explore absurdist and Gnostic themes that are unique among his Mejican contemporaries .

And then you leave the bar laughing to yourself at how hard that guy was trying. Good taste in books though.

Wearing a leather jacket and speaking with confidence makes him a pretensions pseudo-intellectual? What a sad world you live in friend.
>>7516546
when i watched the last video of him he had the nicest fucking jacket on and like a burberrys scarf. the whole time i was thinking he must be wearing 500 dollars clothes and probably a nice watch i wanted to fucking stab that motherfucker for his leather jacket
>>7516634
The leather jacket only parallels his mannerisms. His pretentiousness comes more from the fact that he quotes John Waters, which is basically the intellectual equivalent to me as listening to Tyler, The Creator and saying "I have such good taste for listening to this shit!" He isn't self aware enough to notice how hard he's trying to be intellectual, but still edgy and hip. But, like I said, I can't knock his taste and reviewing skills. I'm sure he's a nice guy. Just wished he'd acted more like a human being.
>>7514960
Too late now, he's /lit/'s Anthony Fandingo.

Nice metaphysical stance, friend. How did you arrive at it?

isn't it just all irony, or post-irony?

Who is he anon, who won the argument against you?
>>7512331
No, he's shit tier.
Really terrible, I can see how he appeals to /lit/ pseudo-intellectuals though.
Someone post that pic of /lit/ bullying a booktuber so much she closed her channel.
>>7521147
So empiricism is right because empiricism shows it's right?
>>7521486
better than dreaming up solutions

Might as well stick to Christianity then, it uses the same type of unwarranted axioms and circular reasoning.
>>7521584
>unwarranted axioms and circular reasoning
except empiricism is not unwarranted and it is only circular via human understanding and logic.
>>7521597
>except empiricism is not unwarranted
Its axioms are as arbitrary as theological ones, lad.
>human understanding and logic.
As opposed to what?
>>7521581
Thank.

nope, reality exists. You can play philosophy games to try and deny it, but at the end of day you are just deluding yourself.
>As opposed to what?
insitu experience
>>7521677
Saying reality exists is like saying rain rains. It doesn't mean anything.
I'm not playing philosophical games, you're backing up your metaphysical stance with nothing but religious fervour.

If I pull that off will I die?

only one way to find out

The silly thing is, you're trying to prove empiricism right by the rules of empiricism. Which is trying to prove Christianity right by the rules of Christianity.
Closed systems like this always work by their internal logic.
>>7522231
except Christianity is made up by humans, reality is not
>>7522266
It is not made up. It as natural as you think empiricism is to believe in a God.
>>7522278
it might be natural to believe in a god, but the specifics are not apparent
>>7522266
Empiricism is made up by humans as well, lad.
COMPLETELY unrelated, but does anyone remember the name of that youtube channel about words in different languages, with well produced vids, where the general theme was sadness or smth like that?
