You're right, it's racist towards whites with the implication that the Natives, while terrible and violent nuggets themselves, were less of a plight on the Mexican village niggers than the white niggers scalping and rootin tootin shootin rapin everyone

Because racism is good and you should be more racist.

He sounds like a degenerate commie

Weak bait aside, it's slop with nothing of any substance to say without anything remotely interesting other than a stylistic gimmick, a fun capeshit villain, and edginess that's only edgy to poorly-read, over-protected midwits suffering from a serious dearth of imagination. It's remarkable, the book almost seems written for the youtube video essayists that made it popular, despite that obviously not being the case factually.

despite what happened, i disagree because the youtube essayists are hardly capable of discussing the book due to how much censorship is needed. the irony is how much of a meme status it now has as "internet culture" among redditors and the like, who have no idea what "the cool villain character" actually does in the book, all the racial shit and child rape, they have no idea whatsoever and yell at videogame developers to put blood meridian references and characters in games etc. IS THIS A HECKIN BLOOD MERIDIAN REFERENCE? WOWZERS!
the book was basically a forgotten mccarthy novel and realtively obscure, and mostly meme'd on /lit/, until one of these youtubers made a video about it.
i'm telling you 99% of people talking about it on the internet have not read the book and do not know what the book reads like at all, or the writings like in OP's pic. they just listened to a creepypasta-like commentary on the edgy cowboy book without knowing whats edgy about it.

True. Always remember the word “racist” didn’t even exist prior to the late 1800s and was only popularized by leon trotsky (actual name lev bronstein, jew) as a propagandist term meant to disavow what he called “White oppressors” in America. The word is still used to the same ends today and it didn’t exist prior to modern usage because of how innately intuitive and indeed helpful “racism” is to the human experience.

The hermit was gay for his slave. It's so obvious
>literally keeps his heart preserved for himself
>puts on a tough guy air when the reason he lives out of community is because he had to kill his lover slave for fear of societal stigma
>looks over the kid at night because in the dark he reminds him of his lover

the whites in this book were niggers themselves, still are. white niggers that were victorious in the nigger wars. colonizers are successful niggers

Some of the whites in the book, sure. But your characterisation of of all colonialists as niggers couldn't be more false. To colonise is in spirit one of the most White thing one can do here on earth. To raise oneself, ones race and ones culture up to the heights that it can conquer the world, and then deliver gifts to the world, to give them technology, rule of law, to improve the lives of millions. It doesn't get much Whiter than that. To be a nigger in spirit is not to think beyond the now, to act impulsively, violently, with great emotion upon the whims and desires most base and low. Many whites and many individuals within the other races act in such a way and everyone has the ability to do so, but to abandon these impulses and to aim for ultimate discovery, and knowledge, and to aim for the stars, that is the drive of the White Man.

a rancid gift that no one asked for. the cause of more disillusionment and depression than anything else.

Go back to Tumblr. Sorry there wasn't a ragtag group of ethnically diverse rebels there to say "Erm, thats actually uh, bad." to the scary men in red hats.
