but mostly old school art, say Van Gogh
I'm sure the irony isn't lost on you that not too long ago Van Gogh was decidedly "new school" and considered random colors and squiggly lines that most people didn't see the value in.
- lonelappde 7y agoThis is the tragic comedy of people who espouse "conservative" values but don't put intellectual effort into it. There worldview is that whatever was canon before they were born is unassailable, and everything else and after is devoid of merit, but they can't explain why without appealing to authorities.

- wool_gather 7y agoI think you've got a good insight, but you're at least skirting the same intellectual trap you've identified, by generalizing about "people who".
