“a human vessel for a more elevated brand of social consciousness as well.”

The world doesn’t actually need more bullshit thought pieces and blogs. You’re pretty clueless.

Well I think it’s kind of a cheap shot to bemoan that the fact that the art only engages in surface-level social commentary not necessarily because it’s not true, but because I’m not sure how much more you can really expect graffiti art to do. Ultimately, we’re talking about images as statements on very complex…

I straight up loved it. Sure there were some (very) derpy lines and I wasn’t a huge fan of the final battle, but it was a solid superhero movie. I also really dug WW’s score. It’s memorable. Gal Gadot is beautiful and fit, but it never goes full on male gaze-y. I actually thought Hippolyta stole the show for best…

Your point is that the only valid form of social commentary is the written word? That is ridiculous. Paintings, cartoons, comics, etc. are meaningless then?

I never got the Banksy thing but the NY work he did plus the West Bank hotel completely changed my mind and I am somewhat firmly in the “he’s a genius” camp now.

Me too! This is the only band doing this type of music (what is it?) that I like. Well, also Tricky, but he was a Massive Attack member. Shelter is a fabulous album. Mezzanine the Teardrop one are really good too.

And Daft Punk is just two middle aged french guys.

It’s not enough to love Massive Attack.

Because Banksy:

Well supposedly Moby just sold his Hollywood hills house to Banksy. I was walking by a few weeks ago and a middle aged white dude who looks a bit like this guy was leaving to walk his dog. So maybe I saw Banksy?

This reminds me of the time when we all found out that Gorillaz was just Blur. Conclusion: all ~secret art~ is just British musicians in tight blazers.

Oh great. Here comes all the hate and criticism despite the fact that Banksy has always produced pretty thoughtful and often social justice oriented free art.

I had always hoped it was the Queen.

“Child enemy”is an excellent phrase that anybody who has ever been a lifeguard, teacher, camp counselor, or person who has ever been placed in charge of a group of children containing a defiant one hardwired to undermine you

Meanwhile, Vivi-Anne is still hoping for tacos

Did someone at least pretend to be dead in the pool?

Santa Claus ain’t real. I still love him.

I’m too old to care. Fake, real, it’s all good to me!

It’s relevant because even though totally average people can be coerced into confessions, his issues made him much more susceptible.
