((((POP CULTURE))))) is pretty much the religion of the west.
>implying the Needercucks isn't immune from it
Because just like tech its another form of escapism. Same reason why video games are so popular.
Because pop culture is American culture

The merchant taught them being consumerist is good.
Buy this merch goy, you will be like the other cool guys so that everybody else can see you like the cool stuff
>When Clark Kent's deceased friend was a capeshit fanatic and he ends up as the Superman pallbearer by chance.
>getting up selled with the expensive coffin
funeral industry must be stopped and its owners tortured and executed
autism.
Being raised into consumerism rather than values to keep people working and in ignorance of their true identity. Pop culture is a cult of modern times for those without identity to worship celebrities and is generic/inclusive as possible to appeal to a wide audience.
Pretty sure that was just a young kid that loved superheroes so they we're trying to be nice if I remember correctly
...
It was never this bad before
In the 90s and 2000s people used to mock men who wore superhero costumes or collected comics as being a manchild or weirdo
Now thanks to comic expos and social media its more accepted to choose not to grow up since an entire generation did not face any hardship
>tfw when your annoying fat cousin makes a circus out of the funeral of your brothers kid, and you cant say no because then you look like a soulless monster
the type of fat whore is pure ego, "ohh lets do the funeral like this he would have love it", its all just for her
Remember Janice in the sopranos?, thats the fat whore I am talking about
...
>the type of fat whore is pure ego
because we have no culture, shouldn't you know this already considering that Euros on here are constantly screaming about it?
I don't understand what's wrong with this picture? Maybe they just wanted to pay respects in their own way for someone who was a fan of comic book characters.
Oh I get it. Somehow this is all connected to the Jews who want all white men to get into pop culture and stop having children so they can have ultimate power or something.
Americans unironically believe comic books are high culture.
Escapism is easier than reality. Same reason Sup Forums is obsessed with anime and video games.
new gods
BE FRUITFUL and MULTIPLY
It's such a simple guideline to live by.
what happened to us Sup Forums?
seriously what happened to us?
Guess he wasn't that super after all.
we want to die, and i dont blame us
They have no family or heritage.
They have no other culture.
They're the first nation founded on pure capitalism and an actual corporate ruling elite and the herds of retarded cattle.
Even Israel has more culture
A funeral is about remembering the person. I would surely hope that if I died people would think of me for the things I did or believe, not the media I consumed.
Correct
I dont know how but I would like no funeral, or if it must be done, no people coming, I hated people, I dont want a bunch of normies coming and pretending they are sad, talking shit to my family, which i dont like either
They lost their identity, so they cope with it through mass consumerism. This is why (((they))) tried to remove christianity and strong white communities, this is the result.
It really is crazy, man.
>88
You became sterile. I haven't, though.
the Jews told us to throw out our bibles
>why are americans so obsessed with pop culture?
Because pop culture is universal and genuine American subcultures aren't
people are so selfish, if i made a note with my true feelings, and killed myself, i am 100% sure my family wouldnt honor my wishes
they would have a normie filled funeral, people who dont know me, who i hate, and not to talk about my family which i dont like as well
even if you disappers, the fucking morons are still going to do the 20 thousand dollar jerkoff show, just to show everybody how "hurt" they are
people are selfish, they dont hurt because of you, they hurt because of them, its all ego
globalism = no folklore = religion of brands and corporations. It's simple.
i-i dunno, senpai
Only niggers don't know about decorum. You should be ashamed of yourself.
they have nothing else.
Because pop culture is literal American culture. Also manchild obsession.
Marvel is legit 60% of U.S. GDP.
It's a sad state of affairs that people consider consumption of media a hobby anymore. It's not inherintetly bad, but it's out of control. I have friends that hop from brand to brand of fast food place, talmudvision/Goyflix show, or car and think that it's somehow a substitute for a personality. I try my best to pull them out of the trap but it never works.
Wasn't that the funeral for some poor kid who died of cancer?
The only culture US has is consumerism, pop culture is its bastard.
Consumers.
When you don't have culture, you have consumption.
no one raises their children anymore
they just sit them in front of a television/computer
it is truly a sad state of affairs
I don't know but I've gotten really turned off to it all recently. I used to binge play games like Skyrim with mods but I now have no desire to buy the new game boxes and 60$ (DLC not included) games. I don't want to watch the "new" Star Wars movies that are literally just the same formula but with DIVERSITY injected in. I watched that new Jurassic park and felt completely unimpressed. Today I saw the trailer for the next one where the island is erupting and they decide to go there and save the dinosaurs wtf? I just moaned and shut that crap off. I don't watch television and when I caught my parents watching this spin off of the Big Bang show where it's some annoying kid who plays the bazinga guy it was so irritating to me that enough people are watching that show to allow it to keep airing. Enough of my blog posting, I think you fags are doing this to me.
No religious beliefs. No family. No guiding purpose in life. Obsess over pop culture in sad attempt to find meaning for themselves.
You realize this was a funeral for a child, right? They dressed like that because he loved super heroes.
>(((high culture)))
Go back to eating your spotted dick and softly singing "Rule, Britannia!" into your bidet, John Bull.
I don't know why Sup Forums is bashing comic books so much right now. superheroes represent strength, bravery, purpose, determination, etc. Just because comics suck now and the movies are generic trash doesn't take away from it. Characters like Superman or Green Lantern are manufestations of Western Civilization and are modern-day myths. Not every character is some edge lord with depression, substance abuse, etc.
"We're addicted to the things we hate."
KMFDM-Dogma
yeah, manchild
Exactly. Based Jewish Magapedes UNDERSTAND the west more than Sup Forums nazis ever could. The western man needs unearned power, magic or alien technology to be great. The common man doesn't need to do a thing, just want for a Superhero to come.
because of autism
lack of a consistent, unifying folk culture
Found the school shooter
Nothing quite like watching the real world churn and burn in real-time.
What is there in the life of a normie but pop culture?
They have no artistic, cultural or philosophical drive, so what is there to do except push the pleasure button again and again until they drop dead like the mice they are?
>unearned power
Green Lantern was gifted his power for superhuman willpower. Its not too different from a Greek hero receiving help from one of the Gods of Mt.Olympus.
I would also argue that it does not promote idleness or laziness, because of the amount of human superheroes without special powers like Batman. I've at least been pushed to be a better person because of characters like Superman, and I seriously doubt anybody has been pushed the opposite way after reading a good Superman comic.
They have nothing else. No history to be proud of, no historical symbols. All they got is massive pop culture which became their religion.
The displacement of traditional WASP culture. This place has had a cultural vacuum since '68.
Americans are just children. Americans aren't raised trapping, hunting, camping, building furniture, making swords, raising barns, growing crops, building fences, climbing mountains, going sailing....
no, American dads watch niggerball with their son. I'm so fucking happy my dad wasn't a stupid circumcised American jew slave. Enjoy your video games, faggots.
Soft living in protected urban environments and jewish influence in modern culture.
JUST
They have no religion
who shot a 6 year old at a school?
wtf america
I hear ya.
I never really been into "pop" culture.
always been on the fringe of society. Marvel shit is gay as fuck.
>No history to be proud of, no historical symbols
How does someone from a country that's not been internationally relevant for 300 years type this without bursting into tears?
Pop culture IS american culture
Our real culture of nice paintings, the landscape, and traditional buildings was sucked out and murdered in cold blood and replaced with (((culture))), Avenge us, please...
I want to get off this ride. This whole world seems more and more unreal with every passing day.
I wonder who's in coffin
not into all that super hero stuff so I can't tell which one is missing from their crew
No other real culture.
Your idea is to live like the Amish. Kys.
So let me get this straight.
These larpers dress up as strong superheroes for their dead friend and they can't even lift the casket. There's 6 of them and they are rolling the casket.
My sides are gone.
Nigger don't pretend you know anything about swedish or european history.
That look on ironmans face
>our real culture
funny way of spelling imported bastardized european culture
I would fuck your dad in the ass.
On top of that, they are making it harder to create a national myth by constantly subverting the history they do have. This general was a hero? No he killed redskins, shitlord. This one then? No he fought for slavery, racist. In the Balkans, when someone gets too butthurt about another people's historical figures, we have another war and create a whole new generation of controversial heroes. It's like the hydra's heads.
Liberals have been attacking the real culture as backwards, cruel, oppressive, unscientific, and loaded with -isms. Turns out that when you strip all of that there's nothing left to culture.
This post triggers the American
Just think what could happen if they tried to get genuine muscles
>t. irrelevant Frog
Continue clinging to past glories, we'll be busy culturally and militarily dominating the entire planet. By the way, do you clench your fist and bite your lip to hold back the tears every time you see a McDonalds, Jean?
leaf knows
>the coffin is on some rolling contraption
jesus christ these soyboys arent even CARRYING the coffin with their own manpower. Fucking hell. This picture epitomizes emasculated nu-""""males""""" better than skinny faglet watching his wife take on 10 dicks at once while slicing off his own cock and actively encouraging all men to do the same
THEYRE NOT EVEN CARRYING IT.
I believe in God, I have a very loving family and I have some things I want to achieve in my life. I have little to no interest in mainstream culture. I'm still miserable and filled with fear and self-hatred. Every day feels like a nightmare. What am I doing wrong?
Damn CroaBro way to hit a burger right in the feelz.
Anyway the real reason is Jews. It's always the fucking Jews.
What does relevance have to do with this? Of course Sweden hasn't been relevant on the world stage. But we have a much longer and richer history than America. Is this the power of American education?
>making swords
This is good, but there are elements in your society which subvert your culture. Your military successes should be celebrated and you ahould erect statues to your generals. Instead these potential heroes are constantly undermined.
Superheroes run around in faggoty tight coloured suits tho and are ultra fucking faggoty.
Did your gramps run around in a jumpsuit during WWII?
We have no real culture anymore, it's all been replaced by commercial consumerism. Of all the things to be pissed about, this pisses me off the most.
that's some serious shit right there.
why does that picture gives me the creeps. I have seen some shit in my days as a soldier. But it is giving me the chills.
Where is that from?
America strong mcdonald on the moon
>"super heroes"
>can't even carry the casket
Hahaha!
Degeneracy and false idols.
you didn't do anything wrong; you've just lost your country.
Bullshit.
Superheroes represented that.
They don't anymore.
They are cultural marxism on paper.
With shit stories.
Superman is an edgy killer, Batman is a murderer, Spiderman is a chicano, Ironman is a black little girl, Cap Britannia is a muslim woman, Cap America is a Pro-nazi renegade, Red skull is the only one who talks truth, Galactus is the bitc... sorry, Herald of Franklin Richards, Ben Grimm is still a jew, Mutants are now an icon for the LGBT comunity...
Comic culture ended in the 2000.
