Pop culture is music, it’s painting, it’s theatre. It’s not just video games and movies. And it can be other things in the future as well.

It’s literally just art for the people, for the masses. That’s us.

Unless you don’t think art has any purpose, you have no reason to oppose “pop culture”, instead of how capitalism distorts and commodifies our popular expressions to control more and more of our reality.

Do you think comics are inferior to opera? Do you think fantasy books are inferior to symphonies? Do you think point-and-click games are inferior to still life paintings?

Or do you just think art is useless? Or worse, detrimental to the human experience?

I’m honestly asking.
