No one is genuine anymore, we’re all giggling and to ourselves and to those around us because each and every single one of us is on the joke, it’s fucking pathetic and I hate it. I just want to live a real life and be surrounded by sincere people
1. this is pasta 2. if you're the same dude posting again I already told you, actions speak louder than words. People can SAY fucking anything they want. That doesn't matter, the actions are sincere. The actions reflect their true desires
Think if you went and performed on a stage, and you sucked. And people boo you. Then you say, "no I'm only ironically sucking!!! haha!!!!" they would tell you to fuck off. Get good and put on a great show or leave, because irony has nothing to do with it

MDE and Cum Town are the really only satires i like

The braps brap softly in the distance Hear them ringing Their subtle textures taunt and tantalize my ears Shaking lightly the inside of my chest
The sultry smell of sweat and egg blesses my airways Breathing deeply their aromas as though I held a flower to my nose Tears well in my eyes
Brrrrrraaappp Hear them ringing The braps brapping are the wind in my sails The air in my lungs And the place I call home
Her braps are her own only Brapped in silence Brapped in solitude Never gracing the senses of another Let alone my sullen ear
Wait Whats this I hear The rumbling of a stomach churning nearby Could it be Yes it might
There she was Folded over with her arms around her stomach The braphog of my dreams Surrounded in empty taco bell wrappers Begging the sweet relief of her burning insides
Unashamed and unabashed There she was Letting loose the one brap to end all braps The brap that would make my heart melt in awe Like angels sounding the trumpets at the gates of heaven
Brrrrraaappp Hear it ringing A brap that could fell empires A brap that could bring kings to their knees Brapped for brapping sake only
Josiah Johnson
yes i know its a pasta but its a very genuine one

lol shut the fuck up cuck. j bet you were the emo kid who posted sad photos of themselves on myspace
Satire needs to men making a decrernalbe statement about what it’s satirizing. Stuff like that if abject shock value nilhism. You couldn’t even call Sam Hyde a radical, because radicals are sincere and passionate in there drive to radical belief. Sams just repelled from everything not extreme
Sebastian Lee
fuck new New Sincerity it's ironic that you faggots are fetishizing the 90s at the same time you're pretending to be sincere again rope yourselves
DFW was right and he knew it and thats why he killed himself
Isaiah Russell
>everyone must be pretending, and that ironic for some reason (spoilers: not it’s not) Irony has literally filtered you entire worldview, do you not see a problem with this Based and Wallace pilled
Jaxon Lee
his suicide was the only thing he was right about otherwise he was too much of a bitch to deal with what postmodernism had to say and so reverted back to crying like a girl before pathetically hanging himself and shitting his pants
Hunter Anderson
the saddest part about new sincerity is that it is simply unsustainable. Everyone associated with new sincerity is depressed out of their minds and ends up killing themselves. When you look at postmodernists and those associated with it they live long lives and die normally. You either have to stay an npc or shield yourself if you want to survive user
Brayden Wright
it has nothing to do with people pretending you girl it has everything to do with a predictable return of a fad. what makes it more fucking unbearable this time is that the fad is people sincerely pretending to be sincere because they think it's the opposite of irony only a fucking retard falls for it. go listen to snail mail, she thinks "it's cool to care" too
Kayden Rodriguez
he killed himself because sincerity is unsustainable. The only way to cope with living is to not take anything serious so you can't see just how empty and miserable life truly is
Caleb Foster
See, you literally can’t respond with out referring to some complex series of layers of irony and sincerity. You think you hate irony but you need to find it everywhere or else, even when people are telling you straight faced that their sincere. Why is it so impossible for you to take something at face value
Grayson Scott
no this is not at all the point. it isn't that sincerity is unsustainable. it's that new sincerity is insincere. sincerity is not the opposite of irony. the attempt at post-postmodernism or consciously "going back" from postmodernism is itself extremely ironic, even more when the method is fucking sincerity DFW was a retard because he thought sentimentality was realism and realism was other than irony and meta-x
Noah Cooper
you're just stupid and don't understand. you keep thinking that I hate irony or am finding irony in everything, or continuing to refer back endlessly to irony. I neither hate irony nor defer endlessly to it, and that's not what postmodernism does either. new sincerity artificially opposes its idea of the real to what it perceives as the dead-end of the unreal. this means that it takes sincerity to be something true in the face of something that isn't this is only the case if sincerity is the other of irony, which it most definitely is not. they are not opposed, and making sentimentality the other of postmodernism is what makes new sincerity insincere ironic bullshit
Xavier Smith
Postmodernism has been completely warped from it's original intention. New Sincerity isn't a criticism of postmodernism but rather a criticism of what postmodernism has done to our society. Sincerity is not the opposite of irony, but rather the acting out of irony by a society that misunderstood postmodernism.

postmodernism is not a thing that was applied to a society like a blanket, it's not a tool that society wields, it's not a book that is misread, it's not a deliberate project that has gone astray. postmodern-ist things have had different kinds of effects, one of which is to convince people that we're swamped in an unreal meta self-referentiality and inability to be truthful. but these -ist effects have nothing to do with what the -ism is and has been, why it happened, and why it's important new sincerity is a way of returning to pre-post-modernism. for DFW this means keeping all the things he liked about pomo and modernism, like parody and irony, but exiting from what makes pomo hard, like the distrust of stories that tell us the unequivocal truth sincerity is that way of opposing to THAT irony, that kind of irony that understands what we might be confronting can't say something absolutely and completely true. postmodernism happens because the bullshit stories of pre-war capitalist utopia turned out to be used for things that brutally fucked us in ways we'd never known before postmodernism is also a way of questioning not just binary things, real vs unreal for example, but how the binaries happen in the first place. those in the new sincerity movement don't like to ask hard questions like that and they don't want to do the work of understanding how something comes to look both true and untrue. instead they want that OG kush unmediated experience of sentimentality, the sincere, the true, the real. they are faking it self-consciously in the face of the thing they reject because what they reject made them feel like they couldn't have progress. they are willing to reclaim progress at any cost. but the funny part of new New Sincerity, this new version of it, is that it's still postmodern. it is a cynical return of what didn't work the first time but with absolutely nothing new added to it. it just repeats it insincerely

I could post this on five different boards off the top of my head and still have it be 100% true.
I actually shed a tear for the first time in 60 years.
Carter Campbell
>willing to reclaim progress at any cost Holy shit user you just completely redpilled me on new sincerity and postmodernism. I was familiar with the -ist -ism contrast but your last paragraph blew me away. are you at uni currently and if so what are you studying?
honestly reddit is new sincerity as fuck. when they're not circle jerking on all the popular subs theyre almost childlike in their naivete and genuineness
Jason Wright
I don't go there often, though from their appreciation of screencaps of Yea Forums antics, I would think that if they value that bullshit comedically, they'll emulate and distill it to some end through their upvote and filter system.
Connor Long
Yea Forums is just retarded, browse other boards you'll see not everyone is as retarded
