You can lead a horse to water, but how?

By 'low-impact' do you mean impact on the material reality of people's lives, of politics, of marxism? Do you think that someone can make art that is effective propaganda without meaning to?

I agree that people especially on the 'art appreciation' website will have strong reactions to that statement as did I when reading it, I think it would be silly to expect otherwise, but I think it's something worth thinking about. I'm not super well-read even though I'm trying to fix that and I'd love to hear your thoughts on the matter if you have a moment.

i mean, like, any individual media object just has an extremely low impact on the world, materially and politically. when art or even specifically directed propaganda has influence on the world, it is in aggregate, as the manifestation of a cultural trend or the characteristics of mass media production--for instance, i don't think gears of war or top gun are individually very influential on the world in a vacuum, they are simply individual examples of the very influential billion-dollar mass culture imperialist propaganda industry.

and like, in case where a particular work or piece of propaganda can be singlehandedly influential, the properties of the work itself are secondary to the material factors propagating it and the political factions adopting and appropriating it. like, to take a very extreme example, the protocols of the elders of zion became a hugely important pillar of global antisemitism because of its usage by the black hundreds and later by white russian emigres, not because of some remarkably convincing element of its own rhetoric

I NEED to sit on you and tickle you with my little legs. I NEED to be really loud and annoying. I NEED to sit on your body instead of literally anything else in your room. I NEED to put my yucky tongue on any food or drink you're having.

>Inexplicably british despite being an american outlet and cares about Kris more than anyone else but only ever talks about their childhood cause that's all he knows; how Kris feels about him is unclear

>Spells out what's been making theorists crazy for years by stating he knows that freedom is what Kris really wants

>"The longer you spend here, the more you realize freedom's just a thing for big shots."

>Okay

>Says he has "The Original Game" of the legend of tenna that Kris used to love backstage, a game that has the freedom they want

>The game has no controller and Kris can only play it through a PINK AND YELLOW colored controller which appears out of fucking nowhere

>Kris says there was someone backstage with them because of this; Ramb says that isn't possible because he was keeping watch the whole time

>The game that's supposed to have the freedom Kris wants, is just a murder romp where you kill enemies that all are obviously resemblances of the Undertale cast with the music stopping after you kill them all in Suspiciously undertale no mercy run themed fashion

>Progressing in the game leads you to a bizarre and unsettling representation of literally just the Weird Route

>Kris progressing in the game leads them to stupid fucking Eram and seemingly just like a representation of their terrible childhood trauma and all the ominous shit happening with the bunker

>And Eram either Has the shadow mantle for some reason or IS the shadow mantle, Despite the fact that this is a fucking Video Game, and we Know that Seam HAD the shadow mantle in the REAL WORLD in chapter 2

>Ramb:

>Refuses to elaborate

>Dies
