[Meta] You Don't Understand Zen; Please Stop Shitposting

I have a dream! That one glorious day I will fix up a cup of coffee, log in to r/zen, and see two or three new posts presenting an interesting Zen quote or piece of research!

I have a dream! That one day I'll be able to sip my coffee while browsing r/zen and mutter blissfully to myself, "Wow, very interesting; I hadn't considered that before", or "Oh, nice! Good research Newb2Zen65! I didn't know that before!", or "Ah yes, this DongShan quote ... I had forgotten about it!"

I have a dream! That Alan Watts will be reserved for ChillStep Mixes and stoned conversations by the fire.

I have a dream! That members of r/zen will actually read a book, and care about Zen, and discuss "Zen" and not their personal prognostications, trip reports, or lame attempts at sounding like a wise guru.

I have a dream! That r/zen will collectively "give two shits" instead of looking like two lumpy shits shat out of one lazy, Doritos-fed asshole.

Guess it's time to wake up to reality though, huh?

How about you people study some goddamn Zen and talk about that in this sub instead, hmmm?

How 'bow dah?

No one cares about your unresearched, uninformed, non-insights ... and the people you think care because they pig-pile on your dogshit are actually other wannabe-Gurus like you, and they're not listening to your "wise words" ... they're just encouraging topic dilution so that they too can have their shot at trying to acquire a "flock."

It's a like a sheep farm full of wolves, all dressed as sheep, licking their lips and baaa-ing futiley into the night. In addition to being insane and pathetic ... it's making a fucking racket!

Why not study Zen while you're here?
