If we don't study all parts of history and prepare to educate others on it then its doomed to be lost or rewritten to fit the narratives of manipulative populists tbh

I figured lol. Some people take things way too seriously and out of context

exactly. having an education doesn't mean you're necessarily smart and/or smarter. i think we should judge each other on the merits

Dude, you’re taking art history way too seriously.

Maybe

Honestly its ridiculous, some of the smartest people I know didn't finish high-school or went to a trade school

Education is about memorization, not about true intelligence. The more you can parrot, the better.

I am glad you’re not angry though. I thought it was a pretty well laid joke. If not a bit cruel

I will say it puts the behavior of people now into great context when viewed through the lense of art from the great plague

Ok yeah so I’ll admit, a bit of art history is fascinating

But considering people already fail to understand the true history of the world and attempt to rewrite I have no problem with taking art history seriously

Especially during times of strife

I love y'all 💕

Here’s the problem. It’s hard to rewrite history that’s based around written and drawn works.

definitely. that is the case with me right now. i'm in uni right now and the distance learning just makes the "marks" seem more worthless

1984 is already a reality

@VulpesVulpes Nazis would disagree

If you want the history of the world, read the mythology

Hi

Nazis are a bad example because that’s past a point where the amount of education someone has doesn’t matter, it’s 2+2=5, or die.

Its all there. Just cut out the crazy stuff 😂

Or do what I do, read both!

Oh I do. I have.. way too many books atm.

Which one is your fave?

That would be rewriting history through force and destruction

And that ... isn’t what the Nazis did?

What

I think book burnings in the street count as force and destruction don’t You?

The Nazis certainly tried to push the narrative in their favor

Yes thats why I said thats what the Nazis did lmao

When you have a thousand children you can't pick a favorite. But im reading colour right now, which is a history of.. how pigments have evolved

Then if I’m already killing and burning and destroying, why does you knowing art history help preserve history in any way?

That sounds very interesting.

Hi

Because the art is being destroyed

?

Y y always causing BEEF

Art being destroyed makes me.. very angry

Art history is kinda pointless if the art is all destroyed isn’t it?

There aren't really words for how mad it makes me. Like.. murderous
