>>11484817Shakespeare wrote crude comedy and based tragedy strictly for the working classes. His plays were full of sex, violence, drugs and telling rich people to fuck off back when that was not an appropriate thing. He is one of the most based and redpilled men ever.
The reason you don't know this is threefold
>Your only exposure to Shakespeare was being forced to read it in school. They're plays, they aren't designed to be read. This would be like being forced to read a Tarantino film script in Latin and pausing at every line to reflect >Shakespeare has been stolen by thespian theatre faggots who think because its old and English that it's classy. Do you know how many times Shakespeare writes about taking a shit? This is not classy>Watching Shakespeare now doesn't work because the language and culture have changed so the references don't land. And to bring them up to date, you would need a writer as good as Shakespeare Further evidence of Basedness
>Othello - teaching that niggers can't be trusted to be rational>Taming of the Shrew - redpilled about women, teaches men to not put up with shit and control their women>Romeo and Juliet - invented the world's most famous ever simp and laughed as he killed himself for no reason >Hamlet - women are whores who will fuck their own brothers just to gain attention Kino directors like Kurosawa (who made Hidden Fortress that Lucas stole for Star Wars) have done whole reworks of Shakespeare plays. Ran is arguably better than King Lear.
Shakespeare basically invented English literature tropes, and a ton of words/phrases that are still in use. And he did it to pay his bar bills.
