And all of this brings me to why people who brag about how they are great Wagner fans and actually are making some kind of an image of him, are funny and ridiculous

2016-12-29 17:20:21 UTC  

Because these people have no idea WHAT they are after, WHAT do they appreciate

2016-12-29 17:20:30 UTC  

If you asked them why exactly they like Wagner they have no idea

2016-12-29 17:20:52 UTC  

Because he named his opera after a Germanic myth i suppose, and that's so "Volkisch"

2016-12-29 17:20:53 UTC  

It's a cargo cult, sure

2016-12-29 17:21:17 UTC  

Yeah, Varg has figured out he can tell what he wants in a YT video, and leave music to music

2016-12-29 17:21:19 UTC  

He learns

2016-12-29 17:21:32 UTC  

Because the basis for appreciating music on its own aesthetic merits has not been laid

2016-12-29 17:22:20 UTC  

So people try to conjure up culture by reenacting what they have seen others call culture

2016-12-29 17:22:29 UTC  

As far as I'm concerned, to modern audience, Wagner is unlistenable as far as his most known pieces are concerned

2016-12-29 17:22:43 UTC  

Nobody can subject himsef to 1 hour of that cacophony of horns and drums

2016-12-29 17:23:01 UTC  

Yes, he also has nice music, he was a prolific author

2016-12-29 17:23:14 UTC  

And note that Wagner himself was reenacting

2016-12-29 17:23:22 UTC  

Argh

2016-12-29 17:23:32 UTC  

Auto complete

2016-12-29 17:23:35 UTC  

Lauren Duca is so fckn annoying

2016-12-29 17:23:45 UTC  

Shit

2016-12-29 17:24:21 UTC  

Resurgence of interest in Germanic sagas in his time

2016-12-29 17:24:25 UTC  

Hence Nietzsche has completely accurately, observed that Wagner had "profaned" those Myths by giving them a romanticist connotation

2016-12-29 17:24:42 UTC  

Out of nothing but artistic vanity

2016-12-29 17:24:57 UTC  

@RavishingRussian her twitter, tucker interview or...?

2016-12-29 17:24:58 UTC  

Matter of taste Imogen

2016-12-29 17:25:14 UTC  

All of it! She has nothing to say

2016-12-29 17:25:16 UTC  

Imo

2016-12-29 17:25:27 UTC  

Typing on mobile sucks

2016-12-29 17:25:52 UTC  

I read her articles on Trump, looking for an argument, she just said he was anti-women and went to talking about her feelings

2016-12-29 17:26:03 UTC  

Her interview w tucker was so retarded too

2016-12-29 17:26:09 UTC  

<@261192246999777280> I was like, "Shep's real name is Imogen?" "Sheps a girl?"

2016-12-29 17:26:11 UTC  

And her tweets are so so dumb

2016-12-29 17:26:23 UTC  

Haha

2016-12-29 17:26:45 UTC  

So yeah, the way forward is indeed, "forward", not "backwards"

2016-12-29 17:26:57 UTC  

Unfortunately, people think "forward" means dubstep

2016-12-29 17:27:11 UTC  

you guys missing rock show

2016-12-29 17:27:17 UTC  

fre3e concert

2016-12-29 17:27:42 UTC  

@RavishingRussian I just ignore her altogether...but hey, she doesn't only do it to annoy...its her pay cheque too

2016-12-29 17:27:49 UTC  

Damn dude hit those notes

2016-12-29 17:28:02 UTC  

That shit sounds like geddy lee

2016-12-29 17:28:03 UTC  

the only people who are going forward are people who just listen to whatever makes them feel good

2016-12-29 17:28:15 UTC  

@MrGoat Sorry, listening to OutKast...
