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

That’s how I feel when I see historical artifacts or buildings being destroyed

Honestly, I lump most of that under art. My favorite class ever was a history of architecture

an Art History student doesnt possess every piece of art they study? They study it, them studying it is what keeps it alive after its destroyed

The books with the photos are what keeps it alive

The Weimar Republic is destroyed yet I still studied that at college...

But only if they arent destroyed too

What are they going to do? Replicate it all? Either the art exists somewhere and survives it in some way, or it doesn’t exist and disappears after a generation.

That is a massive difference

In what way?

Both are history

Because lemme tell you how I havent the talent to recreate the garden of earthly delights tryptich

You guys win the nerdiest internet argument I've seen all month award good work
