Anybody pre-ordering Laurie Penny's new novel "Everything Belongs to the Future"?

Synopsis:

>Time is a weapon wielded by the rich, who have excess of it, against the rest, who must trade every breath of it against the promise of another day’s food and shelter. What kind of world have we made, where human beings can live centuries if only they can afford the fix? What kind of creatures have we become? The same as we always were, but keener.

>In the ancient heart of Oxford University, the ultra-rich celebrate their vastly extended lifespans. But a few surprises are in store for them. From Nina and Alex, Margo and Fidget, scruffy anarchists sharing living space with an ever-shifting cast of crusty punks and lost kids. And also from the scientist who invented the longevity treatment in the first place.

SHE IS A MENTALLY ILL LEFTIST WHO IS FOR THE INCLUSION OF MUSLIMS and interracial relationships.

She has absolutely no problem with degenerate homosexuality and wishes to destroy an imaginary "patriarchy".

There was some person who became mildly famous in the uk bacause they did recipes for people on benefits or something and I always assumed it was Laurie Penny and she was just slowly gliding down from that fame, taking it as far as she could. I was wrong and now need to know how the fuck she is famous? Like she's so fucking stupid I couldn't have imagined her ideas actually got her to the place she's at, I thought she was like emma watson or some shit... fuck...

she started working for NS as teen so it is a bit like emma watson. that franchise carried her into adult life where she's trying to make adult choices but also hasn't had to develop because there's no way NS is dropping her now unless she rapes like 20 kids. even then, it might just result in an editorial.
>>7675065
>i'm the arbiter of canon
tough shit, you're the one whose entire argument is /pol/. I don't like Penny, but I'm not going to pretend that she doesn't have a publishing deal just because spergers like you think your view of politics matters more than reality. it just doesn't, and you should fuck off to /pol/ if all you're interested in is political grandstanding. she's a writer of influence, you don't have to like her for that to be true at all, and your brain is too broken by /pol/ to read /lit/ if you think otherwise

I posted some of those 'troll' comments, but they were sincere.

She's part of the feminist movement which is financed and propagated by Judaic Marxists who wish for the proletariat to seize the means of production and overthrow the current mode of production by implementing communism.

In this way, the Jews -- who own everything -- will lose their privileged position as the ones who benefit most from the capitalist economic system UNTIL -- in a communist-feminist society -- Jewish lizard aliens (the far removed cousins of the earthly variety) will come down and join forces with the bolshevik Judaic feminists.

It is precisely in a communist society -- where people are equal and race-mixing is okay and women have power too -- that population control and harvesting of humans becomes easy for the lizardian Jews who will become our new overlords.

Take the redpill

>>7675125
I don't have a hate boner for her. I don't like her, but I find it much more disturbing that people can't accept she's a writer with a wide public reach and long history of publication. It's the exact same as if you tried to retcon reality for any other author, whether I liked them or not: it makes it seem like your hate boner is so hard you can't tell reality from your fantasy world where all that matters is your opinion. It's asking for the same kind of echochamber I dislike Penny for, so I think you're just as much a narcissist as her, but a slightly dumber one since you couldn't get a publishing deal and think anyone will listen to your version of history where Penny doesn't have a publishing deal. Unfortunately for you, she does have a publishing deal and a lengthy history of publication, so she is /lit/
It doesn't make her work good, but denying that she's a writer of note just makes you look like an idiot whose feels matter more than reality.

i want to live forever

i don't believe in anything other than my oppression on earth. i have nothing to look forward to in life or the afterlife.

if i die, i am removed from my oppression. i am removed from the condition that defines me as a being. without oppression, i never existed.

likewise, rupert murdoch and his ilk MUST exist in perpetuity to oppress countless future generations and give their lives meaning through ceaseless oppression.

some part of me wants to break the cycle but i can't. if oppression ends, i end.

Laurie Penney is a great big fat British woman. She'd pin you down and force you to kiss her on the mouth. Her flabby fat arms would be cold and mushy against yours and her flapjack tits would slam onto your kitchen table every morning like someone dropping a phonebook. That would be your life.

new statesman is a major publication. it's not going to stop being one because of laurie penny. don't worry i know you don't know what the new republic is to get a joke about stephen glass so i won't make one, but your need to bring down a publication as a whole so you don't have to cop penny might have an audience is very funny when you bump her threads.

I was reluctant to see the movie, because of all the feminist ass kissing it was doing. Saw it, and laughed at the end by how "non-feminist" it was. Feminists saw "strong independent women dat dont need no man", surface level shit, glossy over key parts in the movie.

Also, all those old bitches ruined their promised land. Joe was the only one to do it right.
