This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
- Anon is often crazy.
- Anon is often depressed.
- Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Well, i was already holding my opinion before this 4chan post; this just gave me opportunity to formulate it.
However, it is important to note that many people say "people should read more books" without in any way, implicit or explicit specifying which books to read.
There are a lot of people saying "they're gonna educate themselves through youtube", but in the end, not all youtube videos that seem to have good content, actually have good content. There's a lot of videos containing pseudo-clever thoughts, that lead people to believe they have learned something, while actually, they haven't. And the people often even pay/donate for it. That is my consideration.
It is the same with books: By reading "books", people are often caught in reading not-actually-all-that-great books, like all (or most of) the modern stuff, and that does not help anyone.
I apologize, I hadn't understood your thoughts very well. Thanks for clarifying.
