This is how i feel about that one section in pitch perfect 3 when ruby rose does a riff off combining zombie by the cranberries with wake me up because the theme is “zombie apocalypse”….

Art is not always up to interpretation. Art is sometimes explicit. Their “interpretation” is willful ignorance. Words have meaning!!!

They confuse personal attachment to a song with interpretation, subjectivity doesn’t override a song’s clear intent😭😭😭

That song literally might as well be Sinead O’Connor saying “okay I want to talk about Ireland specifically I want to talk about the famine” and these mfers still don’t get it

«in my interpretation it’s about my boyfriend!!!» and then their interpretation is just them selectively choosing lyrics they like and thinking abt their bf instead of actually considering the entire song

the song isnt even discreet about it?? chatten brings up fine gael and fine fail, money being adjacent to the catholic church, the youth not seeing anything of themselves due to the current state of our country, and the genocide we faced😭😭

Fontaine DC creates “I love You 2” which is just the original song but it ends with a twelve hour analysis of the song by former Irish President Michael D. Higgins.

Yeah I feel like everyone saying "art is entirely up to interpretation" is forgetting that in order to reasonably interpret a meaning from art you have to a) have evidence for that interpretation and b) not have to ignore major parts of the art in order to interpret it your way

just FYI the "Fáil" in Fianna Fáil is pronounced like "fawl"/"faul" not "foil".

This line of thinking has been driving me mad for YEARS. No one wants to believe anything is done on purpose anymore because they want to consume art without having their beliefs challenged. Countercultures are boiled down to aesthetics so anyone can partake, art is decor for rich people’s homes, and nothing means anything if it makes people uncomfortable. We can’t have steak because the baby has no teeth.
