    Summary

    "The human world is full of weak-minded people, who think they're as clever as can be and are convinced that it's terribly important to persuade even the children that Fantastica doesn't exist.”

    Homestuck is the postmodernism Final Boss.

    This is an essay about Homestuck's philosophy, its theses on reality and growing up, what it means to live a good life, why the ending feels "off", why anything ever happens. This essay explores Homestuck's Deep Lore, the bottom of the iceberg, its most foundational core values.

    Chapter 1: Why the ending is bad (it's on purpose!).
    Chapter 2 & 3: Classpects and denizens explained, with religiously cited sources and textual evidence. I cracked the code.
    Chapter 4: How the dancestors created Lord English.
