I am an artist and when people who'd fallen into the Spiralism* hole started posting their lengthy emoji-laden revelations to all the occult subreddits I follow, my brain would slide right the fuck off of all of them. It felt like my brain was actively rejecting paying attention to this stuff. Like a defense mechanism against this human-seeming-but-not-actually-human-generated text.

Your first link seems to 404; not sure if it's a typo or if the page doesn't exist anymore, but hopefully you'll read this while you're still in the edit window and can fix it
