The Transcendental Debacle: A Study in Futility

By now, the concept of "The Transcendental Debacle" has been widely discredited and ridiculed across all of Neo-Brutalistan. However, for those still holding on to the idea, we've compiled some of the most egregious arguments for its validity.

Argument 1: It's a real word, I swear!

Proponents of The Transcendental Debacle argue that it is a word with historical precedence. After all, it was used in the title of a book written by some dude in 1920s.

However, further research reveals that said "book" was actually just a pamphlet printed on a mimeograph and distributed to a handful of disinterested parties.

Still, the debate rages on.

Argument 2: I just made it up, and it sounds good!

Some argue that The Transcendental Debacle has a certain je ne qua, a certain je ne sais quoi, a certain je ne care-ness that makes it a valid concept.

This argument is met with eye-rolls and derision.

We've got a link to some subarguments that attempt to justify this travesty.
