What if you wrote a complete history of the world from 1945-2022, and published it in the 1950's during the peak of dystopian literature?

[Wormy]

See, right now you feel like a heroic intellectual here to enlighten the ignorant peons.

Enlighten people? HERE?! Oh darling, I'm not that naive. Just me saying what I feel like saying.

You think that realising that individual black people are just as complex and nuanced as individual white people is an amazing revelation and not, you know, so self-evidently true that it doesn't need mentioning.

Is it though? People around here don't see to act like it.

People talk in generalizations because people in the real world think in terms of groups, not in terms of individuals. We are all aware that people are individuals, but people will inevitably notice patterns within identifiable groups like race and ethnicity. And this applies to every group, not just black people. An example: the stereotype that white people can't handle spicy food.

Which I love disproving by shoveling it down. Can't do that much THESE days because middle aged and breaking down, but....

Sure, not every white person is unable to handle spicy food, but it's widely known that white people as a group are less tolerant of spicy food than other groups.

So that must mean no white person can eat spicy food and if you're white, you can't.

Right?

It doesn't matter if you refuse to think in terms of group identity, because everyone else does

That's their problem then. Not mine.

and will continue to do so no matter how much a "we're all individuals, you shouldn't see colour" ideology is pushed upon them.

Again, that's their problem. I'm not dancing along to it.

So that must mean no white person can eat spicy food and if you're white, you can't.

Right?

You were so desperate for an own there that you couldn't even parse what I wrote. Individually, sure, it's possible for a white person to eat spicy food with the best of them. But as a group? They'll be chugging cold water while everyone else is piling on the spice.

The fact this wasn't what you took away from my comment says to me that you're not only a contrarian, but you're a contrarian who doesn't even understanding what they're being contrary to. You just like the sound of your own voice.

So what? Doesn't mean I have to. So what good is that notion to me?

Then explain what I am being contrary to?

You just like the sound of your own voice.

[Saint Agustin]

People would call you insane and the feds would arrest you for possessing time travel later in life.

If you veiled it with fake people you would get talked about on some wackos YouTube top ten video.

Tesla was a Time Traveller, but the faggot did one single mistake and went too many jumps and too forward in time. He catched the eyes of The Arbiters of Time and decided to come back to his own time, however it was too late and they got him.

You don't fuck with Time. Also, traveling to the past is impossible.

How do I know this? Orwell told me yesterday.

 

[Osmosis Jones]

People have been writing dystopian novels forever. Writing one about the events of '45-'22 wouldn't do anything but make people think I was a bullshitter doomsday prophet.

So what? Doesn't mean I have to. So what good is that notion to me?

Then explain what I am being contrary to?

Nigga, he's right. Whenever you run into a wall in an argument you just whip out the next thing and keep going and going until you've either won through nonsense or endurance. There's no need for muh sources when any one of us could see the way you argue in literally any AT thread.

Okay.

 

[wtfNeedSignUp]

Our culture is so alien and retarded you'd need something the size of the bible. Really you could have put what we have right now in 2012 and people would call it out as insane and ridiculous.

 

[Atatata]

It probably wouldn't be popular, but gain a small cult following that think its edgy and kind of neat.
It'd be forgotten after a while until it gets remembered after a couple of stuff came true, which then it'd become a bit of a thing on occult boards and YouTube channels.

 

[Rome's rightful successor]

If that book ends up being a fameous as Brave New World or 1984 then it would be enough to change the course of human history.

 

[Iceland Heavy]

I remember you from the other thread. I know your type. You've spent so much time on the weird fringes of the Internet that your naturally contrarian nature has now become directed towards other contrarians and you've come back to supporting everything the establishment supports. One could say that's pretty... Orwellian

Spoiler

I can feel this creeping into my own thinking and I don't like it

 

[PipTheAlchemist]

Still pretty damned stupid to call him a hero for the objectivist right wing.

It's mostly Libertarians who praise George Orwell. Not necessarily right-wingers
