Both evolving to simplicity and devolving to shitposting, [s4s] presents a troublingly obscure and romantic work. On this board, posters come closest to achieving the ideal of the ancient Greeks: an epic poem set to memes and choreographed to the motions of posters on a stage, telling a story that is both literal and of mythic symbolism, which [s4s] expresses through meme slices that resemble the leitmotifs of Richard Wagner. The listener becomes enmeshed into these posts and subsequently shocked awake when their evocative structures unfold and implode, blooming a wistful moment of both realization and emotion, resignation and resistance. Emotion comes from the ironic text distorted to merge with the electronic organic mass of images, rhythmically adept to insert the contortions of writing in anguished, hopeless ferocity. Like most imageboards, it is self-indulgent to the edge of being egodramatic, but in this case a contemplative mood takes over in a clarity of purpose distilled to simplicity. Not as cutting, destructive, and angry as earlier boards it seems more reflective and nihilistic, recognizing prison as an indifferent destiny in a world this repulsively stupid. [s4s] explains shitposting and the clash between the ancient (narrative) and modern (ambient) by resolving them both to a primitive outlook on life, a spiritual holocaust that eliminates our feelings and judgments and replaces them with the hard reality of a cold night in the forest.Thus concludes a brief vision of eternal order rising from necessary violence and then chaos, presenting the human soul yearning for more than the functional before vanishing into despair with the enigmatic afterglow of a falling star.
