oh you're one of those 'we're more sophisicated now' types. makes sense.
IMO we are not more sophisicated we do not move beyond old art. thinking we do is the height of arrogance and missing the entire point. art is supposed to humble you, not elevate you into thinking you are superior.
I think that's a pretty unfair reductive take on what I said, a poor logically devoid straw man counter argument, and is putting yourself squarely in the art snob category that often thinks they're better because "they get it". Very much the sheeple mindset I'm complaining about.
I think I'm done here and gonna go watch Backrooms to see what the hype is about.
