Chesterton says science fiction is an inherently cowardly endeavor; men flee from the greatness of the past into a future where they can imagine themselves without concrete competition

I guess that and being fat are his two faults then

science fiction and fantasy are the same

in both, you can get cowardice and you can get "true fantasy"

yeah he would acknowledge that he's just a pithy aphoristic wit writer

more than a genuinely analytical type

@UOC that sounds like a complete misrepresentation of the genre

he doesn't care about the genre he's just taking on facet of it and using it to hang a point about modernoty

I actually think aphorism is superior

me too

I was just saying, I'm sure Chesterton is great

https://listentotheearth.net/public/crop-circles/not-human-works

I tried to go down this rabbit hole but dead end

all I determined for sure was

crop circles are not hoaxes

what do you guys think of Milo

gay self promoter, such figures tend to be necessary but expendable

use them and lose them should be the rule

goes for Cernovich too

and others

isnt he jewish tho

doesn't matter

alt-right isn't racist

i thought Altright didnt like jews or blacks and stuff

Milo and the alt right have a mutually beneficial relationship without being necessarily all alogned

it's an umbrella, so you get legit white supremacists

but even the nazi types

they aren't really racists

they are white identity politics

the only thing alt-right is universally anti- is leftism

anyway I thought that was going to be a music question

fallot tell me how it is metaphysically

I thought you were going more into why they all tend to sound similar

something like an evolution (by stripping away) towards some platonic ur-symbol language of music

or closer and closer to such an ideal

"direct" musical communication

they all rely on effectiveness of basic melody

that melodic quality IS music

and when you make minimal music, that has to be right at the top

otherwise your music will fail

that's what I was going to suggest
