Why this weird fixation on books?
It's just one source of knowledge amongst many.
Reading books is not inherently better than learning from the internet, schools, or by socializing.

I've already read every book written by jack vance and nothing else compares. Tons of prose is contaminated with boomer television drama manners of speaking, or stuff that sounds like a gay redditor or 14 year old wrote it. Reading books isnt a flex. You are often not learning a skill, it doesnt necessarily make you smarter or better - although it definitely is important for kids and developing minds. So reading fiction to enjoy it is no different than shitposting / playin vidya / watching TV / etc past a certain point.

Why aren't you playing factorio? Why aren't you making mods? Why aren't you soldering stuff together to build things? Why can't you add 96gb of vram to your 5090?

I'd say it depends on the subject. If it's history, medieval battles and so on, then youtube videos can be great, when they're properly researched.
Languages - obviously it's better to socialise and use the language in the real world with all the contextual cues that come with that.
I can't explain English grammar to you, but does that actually matter when all I need the language for is to communicate?
But for most academic subjects, actually reading a good textbook is indispensible.
If we're talking fiction, then yes, it doesn't magically get good just because it's published on paper.

reading books literally makes you smarter. I feel dumber ever since I stopped reading regularly.

I've read most of the books I wanted in my youth. Nowadays if I hear about a good book it's slop.

This anon is correct. With youtube videos you're merely consuming what someone pre-digested for you. Often poorly.

Books are the biggest pseud shit ever. They think books are old so they're automatically better than reading a fucking webpage. Same people who think books makes you smart are the same people who insist on letting you know they listen to LE CLASSICAL music. It's fedora tipping, top hat wearing, cane twirling, katana 2 liter cutting, m'lady retard behavior.

>ugh reading ancient wisdoms is stupid, guys
I think everyone who realizes how retarded you are and everyone like you also realizes just how much the world has changed by reading their words.
You may think their words were on par with today's brainslop, but you're miserably confused.
>le classical music
This is peak Idiocracyposting. Anon, this is why people make fun of burgers. Have you seriously never listened to Vivaldi or Bach and felt the difference in the composition?

This is what Not Sure felt like. It's painfully obvious.

Subhuman fucking nigger.
You're probably some chaw dipping, Bud Light swilling moron who simply cannot admit you don't read because you're functionally illiterate and books wit all dem big words makes you angry. ESPN sportsball webpages don't count as reading dipshitter.
