it really changed up my whole shit to realize that theres no art that will automatically infect and corrupt your brain with bad ideas upon witnessing it. you can read stuff you dont agree with, even stuff that disgusts you. the important thing is to engage with why it disgusts, or why it excites as the case may be. you can learn so much when you engage with a work not from the mindset of "this is the Good/Bad thing i need to support/condemn" but from one of "why does this make me feel this way? was this feeling the authors intent? what do i want to do with this feeling?"
