Sorry I didn’t know you were actually specifically referring to intelligence (lol why would you do this) as opposed to just trying to interpret the artist as a person generally

I just mean, metonymically, who gets the troll 1s (somewhat) and who’s called vapid or too full of themselves (definitely) or whatever



Everyone can and probably will make a convincing argument that they should be excluded prima facie from such a broad analysis but at some point you have to stop zooming in and start looking at the structure



And yet I live for the sput

"I just mean, metonymically, who gets the troll 1s (somewhat) and who’s called vapid or too full of themselves (definitely) or whatever"

Because women have a higher tendency to be vapid and/or too full of themselves.

Also Darkseid is far superior to delete forever.

Why does every Grimes thread turn into this

Honestly I was just fucking around, but I do find a higher tendency of female artists smelling their own farts and calling it lavender. That doesn't mean men can't be pretentious fuckwads too. Just look at Trent Reznor for an example.

"Why does every Grimes thread turn into this"

I mean, before she started dating Elon Musk, she was constantly all over the woke train. Not so much anymore, but such conversations aren't really surprising in that regard.

In all seriousness tho you never specified intelligence, and that was one of the most pretentious arguments I've seen on this site in a hot minute, all seems a bit inflated, presumptuous, and a bit self righteous.

Grimes comes across dumb and that translates to her having dumb lyrics. Not everything needs to be boiled down to to some trite psuedo intellectual discussion about social structures and identity politics.

"I’ll switch it up to be Woke and say that in a community like this women and people of color are always gonna get the short end of the stick in such an evaluation. You can say it’s not true but it so is"



ofc true but as a wealthy artist with pretty much full creative autonomy, a billionaire partner, a healthy record of cultural appropriation, and a willingness to anthropomorphise climate change into a posterfronting anime character for cheap concept points, I think it's a bit facile to close the book there. I do think this site should have a rule whereby every criticism of a female artist for a misplaced concept should be accompanied by a revisionist review of any concept prog and/or metal album made by white men
