feel like there’s overall a push in society to validate “lowbrow” art in a weird way. like the whole phenomenon of booktok defending the right to read trashy romance books (fine) but also wanting it to be seen as on an equal level with actual literature. the push for the oscar’s and other award shows to reward blockbuster movies because obviously how much money a movie makes is directly correlated with its artistic merits. i guess i will go to bat for being a pretentious freak!!!
