I read the article, but assumed a different intent, and didn't read any "argument" whatsoever. Rather just that the author was sharing some neat things about things they liked, clearly delineated from opinions that were present throughout. I didn't get the impression the author was arguing about what you should and should not like, just sharing their own passion.

> and didn't read any "argument" whatsoever. The very first sentence in the article is: > There's a recurring argument (…) Which the author then explains and links to a TikTok video which expands on it. The article continues: > This is correct. I also agree that modern, blocky pixel art often is a kind of misdirected, anachronistic nostalgia. So yes, the article (and video) is arguing for the connection between pixel art and nostalgia, and that what we remember with fondness is something different that what was really there.
