"FOLK MUSIC" IS USUALLY PRETTY BAD
It is also cultural/religious music in a sense. It serves the same purpose as "praise and worship" music for a certain group of people
"transcendent" etc. but I think "romantic" carries all of that meaning
that's what romanticism is about isn't it after all
blind religion/following laws (medieval music, baroque music) ---> enlightenment, abstraction, intellect, distance from "pagan consciousness" (classical music) ---> *CONSCIOUS* rediscovery of faith via intellect and abstraction (Romanticism, Metal, ?Future?)
child -> adolescent -> adult
animal -> man-as-is -> man-as-should-be
Romanticism is based on the texture of life itself, and the discernment of the heart. It is the antithesis of the bureaucratic, office life and of the shallow, atomised, emotional manipulations of modern mass media and leisure; it also rejects the ideals of obedience, submission and group-conformity that traditionalism put at the centre of its moral systems.
Romanticism takes its measure from the texture of life and finds what it seeks in the best moments of actual life, and in a more sustained fashion in the romantic arts.

"The Emperor's New Clothes" - this myth shows us all we have to do. just point and laugh and pop the bubble. "mock him" right? don't argue don't debate just laugh.
most people aren't so bad that they will say 2+2=5. they're just repeating stuff and don't have better influences. you can't get them onto more complicated topics but you can reach them at the basic level of pointing out the big lies.
I don't disagree with your or Charlton's analysis of Romanticism but I do think that the distinction between that concept and the obedience-based medieval stuff in some ways mirrors Nietzschean concepts of master and slave morality
some are not suited to be masters
why would she
that's gross
why is she doing this so often
there's like 8 wasted watermelons at the end...
women can only effectively do three or four things throughout their entire lives
it's funny knowing that this is one of them for her
my wife is currently engaged in cross-stitching a gigantic map of middle earth for my wall
I don't think she could pop a watermelon tho
also metal is fucking white you damned dirty paki
i won't stand idly by while you try to co-opt my people's music
it's like rap
Metal belongs to the white man.
Wagner for the working class white man.
metal is so specifically white that it only proliferated during a time when the white soul was under direct assault
commercialization didn't kill metal, it accomplished what it needed to, and exhausted its expressive meaning
Metal was invented by a wop
Thus not white
so were helicopters
