What do you think about this art essay if you've seen it before? (I doubt you'll read the whole thing because it's so long). I really love it. It talks about how new art forms are dismissed due to their use of new technology, and judgement by criteria of other art forms. It also talks about dead art forms used as social status symbols. It talks about all new endeavours as being essentially hobbyist / manchild activities.

We live in a time when Donald Trump can become PotUS, but Alex Anthony Icycalm Zirbas Kierkegaard is not yet recognized as the greatest philosopher that our age, or perhaps all ages, has produced.
Why is this?

Games are art but this essay is garbage.

Lost me there.
