I easily see that philosophical axioms are arbitrarily chosen. I see that the idea of "objective literary quality" is promoted to have a common set of canon books and criteria to facilitate in group status signalling through praise and "criticism" of these books. Publishers also have financial incentives to promote this.
I easily see that there are infinitely many interpretations of art. I easily see that some of these interpretations are promoted for the above social signalling reasons and fuel for citation circle jerks. I easily see that enjoyment of art was an important criteria in all early forms of art but is now discouraged due to its uselessness as a concept in academia.
I easily see that modern pseudo intellectuals venerate Ancient Greece and Rome in order to signal intelligence while ironically they are too unintelligent and lazy to understand modern advances in science and mathematics (which they dismiss as unimportant while using these as their intellectual launching pads).
I easily see that all successful art forms start as derided hobbyist and experimental activities among males for enjoyment, become more popular with the mainstream of society while new peaks of expertise are reached, before losing popularity as commercial interests, academia, and female attention whoring eliminate organically accepted standards and impose their own.
I see that literature is in the stagnant female m and academic dominated phase. Poetry is even further gone. I easily see that any attempt to deny this by appealing to "our dumbed down society" is clearly false because of the incredible progress and interest in hard sciences and mathematics (through actual research, not pop sci). These activities require skills while people, consciously or not, realise literature has descended in to a signalling game.
I easily see that the discussions around Hegelian philosophy or Marxism or any philosophy represent trivial symbolic manipulations and deductions with zero predictive value.

You are still inferior. You've recognized the joke, which much of Veeky Forums hasn't, but you've let it fill you with despair rather than challenge you to transcend. You've come so far but it's been worth nothing. You're a failure.

What for? You're right, congratulations and welcome to the club. Now you've got to think what to do about it.

Is this an objective seeing based on a priori axioms embedded in human nature by the grace of God or is this just a relativist "seeing" aka garbage aka just your opinion man?

I see that the idea of "objective literary quality" is promoted to have a common set of canon books and criteria to facilitate in group status signalling through praise and "criticism" of these books. Publishers also have financial incentives to promote this. Yes taste is subjective and is dependent on axioms.
>enjoyment of art was an important criteria in all early forms of art but is now discouraged due to its uselessness as a concept in academia. wrong

Uh this can only mildly apply to films (sort of). Video games are still nowhere near accepted as a valid art form.
Music and Literature(vernacular stories) are as old as the hills.

There is no inherent objective value in art and the enjoyment received is different depending on the individual. Shocking revelations OP. You are truly transcendental and everyone is enlightened by your intelligence

I thought the bait was how obvious but irrelevant this is, why are you faggots actually responding esp >venerate Ancient Greece and Rome in order to signal intelligence while ironically they are too unintelligent and lazy to understand modern advances in science and mathematics Do you think people start with Greeks for science and math? Who's shilling Euclid on Veeky Forums

You should read Jung, Kierkegaard, Heidegger and Spengler.
