Why I Schizopost: What Schizoposting Is

Jelkin Stardust

Schizoposting is a portmanteau of schizophrenia and shitposting, that originated in 4chan threads. One who is called a schizoposter may display signs of paranoid schizophrenia, through either word salad, which is a group of words or sentences that appear to make no sense, or just be jumbled words, or hypergraphia, which is the urge to write. However, you don’t really need to be schizophrenic in order to be a schizoposter despite its name, you don’t even need to be mentally ill to be a schizoposter, period. The ways that you can be a schizoposter are outlined here:

Schizoposting is the art of saying weird shit and believing in it, to sum it up. It’s the art of using wrong reasoning, weird spelling and grammar, and new age/based beliefs to create a pretty intelligent worldview, that no rational mind can ever conjure up, even if their lives depended on it. It’s a psycho-weapon against capitalism/the state and it’s agents, a protective shell against outside forces. It has its roots in surrealism and dadaism, both art movements dedicated to unwrapped the unconscious/subconscious mind, as laid out in freudian theory, and the abolishing of logic as a natural force.

One can argue that now, people like Refbatch are the new surrealists/dadaists, even more so than the people who are intentionally making surrealist/dadaist experiences, because they actually have lived psychological mindgames that have been made by capitalism. In a way, it’s useful in judging everyday life, because the rational may be found in the nonsensical, and the nonsensical may be found in the rational. A way to get out your inner schizoposter is to write in terms of stream of consciousness. That way, irrational beliefs can be discovered in a way that you would have never believed possible.

Dreams, also a part of the schizoposting milleu, are temporary cryo chambers and state of addresses beamed to you by the subconscious in order to decide your future, and also a way to secretly vent out your problems. It’s the reason why great men like Giles Deleuze and Frederich Nietzsche are respected and popularized today, their dreams have subconsciously, without them knowing, affected their ideas, and the brevity of them.

The images at the start of this writing are examples of subconscious linking between seemingly unrelated images: The images are a screenshot i took of an animation meme and a picture of underground rapper SpaceGhostPurrp. You can see the similarity in facial expressions in these seemingly unrelated images, hence connecting false scenarios between them. They both appear to be distressed, however one of the pictures less so. It is an example of wordlinking in schizopostist and schizophrenizing theory.

Schizoposting is natural: it is probably the meaning of writing altogether: It is a hyperproduct of the connected mind rebelling against oppressive regimes, and oppressive structures in brainwaves. It rebels against the hyper-nothingness of the broken light alleyways, the electronic billboards that squiggle and quake with hyper-consumerism and commercial preludes to drug addiction and mental prostitution.
