Censorship and Art

Feanor said:

Says it's not semantics, goes on to semantic. You suck at this, dawg.

You agree with me too you just can't bring yourself to say it. Once again we both agree that art is partially objective by way of standards and partially subjective by way of art being exactly what it is. If I was wrong this conversation would not exist. The very fact we're sucking each other off is because art is subjective. You are the one defending a position. By the way good job keeping yourself from bolding and capitalizing in your last post. I could almost read the parts where you would have. Good job also avoiding the taste question.

Lithose you're an academic right? Some sort of teacher? I thought so.

I won't bother feigning buttanger at your slurs by bolding and capitalizing a long winded reply. I will repost the last thing I said as a way to avoid your deluded and obsessed social justice warrior brain in reverse.

You're trolling now right? I honestly can't tell. You seem to be doing some kind of weird mimicry of my post. My post (The one I quote), by the way, came at the start of my posting in this thread--my argument has been consistent this entire time (Right from fucking post 1). Your post is a quote from page ten, which is a conclusion you arrived at after 3-4 pages of arguing with me. I'm glad I could show you why your original assertions either sucked, or were worded poorly. But if what you've got left is trying to make me argue in the way I say I insult people for trying to argue? I'm afraid you're going to have fun with that on your own.

That shit isn't art! If you're an artist, hopefully some day people like me will find your balls so you can tell people like Yoko Ono to shut the fuck up, and that her whaling isn't art. Until then, I guess enjoy her performing at prestigious institutions while artists who are technically a million times more proficient and talented will grind out a living as a graphic designer because they didn't suck the right cocks in the little social jerk off session that's now called "art".

Unless you're going by a rigid definition of art and shit, then art is subjective. As beauty and attraction are subjective. Some music like metal is deliberately ugly and noisy. You're making the mistake of fitting everything into one neat little bubble.

If you mean a very specific set of requirements for what you think should be labeled as art it would still be subjective as fuck.

I'm not a post-modernist. I'm just some guy telling you you don't get to decide what art is. The decision was made already. You were not a part of the process, so you don't get to have a say now. Sorry.

I'm not a painter so I don't care about visual arts but I've booed at many bands. Never occured to me to yell "you are not music" cos I'm not a fucking nerd.

I don't really care if you want to call it a monochrome canvas art. I'm not an artist and artists are only doing damage to their own field by accepting this garbage. It's when you try to convince people that it's good art is when I'm going to call bullshit. These faggots paying millions of dollars for this objectively shit art are exactly the kind of elitist fart sniffers Tanoomba wants to pretend don't exist or are somehow analogous to engineers talking about engine specifications(LOL R U SERIOUS Dindu?). The only value these pieces have are the fact that someone paid a shitload of money for it. The only "meaning" these pieces convey are "wow look how fucking rich this asshole is".

No its not, because clearly pages later you say its not totally subjective. Do you know what consistent means?

There is a difference between bad art NO art too.
Would you consider a trio banging on beer kegs with random implements off tempo, Music?
Yet one dude banging with a bat at a beer keg in slipknot song is part of Music. No matter what you think of the song itself it can be considered music. While the above trio is just pissing around.
