High brow just looks like cope because he had an argument with a upper middle-brow

>>17197061
What year is this from? It is insanely dated.

>>17197099

If I remember vaguely from the thread it was posted on, 1948-49. LIFE magazine.

I'm going to try to dig into it.

Wow this is from before universities even began to acknowledge jazz and it's effect on world popular music.

>>17197061
I'm a design student, that likes opera, free jazz and idm unironically.

Probably high brow i guess

>>17197061
>Upper-Middle Brow
>The Game
was this just an elaborate ploy to get me to lose?

>>17197061
Much of this is arbitrary.

>>17197235

Perhaps they already lost.

It's sociological theory made for a mushy middle American audience in the '40s. It is of course a little simplified...

>bach and before, Ives and after
extremely based

>>17197061
Most of my family is lower middle brow. My parents ascended to upper middle brow and are constantly trying to assert their status and LARP at what they think is high brow. Meanwhile I pretend to be low brow to avoid unnecessary negative attention. It also helps me get along with everyone else, except the middles and very vain uppers of course since they're so concerned about status. I actually get along just fine with the few high brows I've encountered since I'm not constantly trying to impress my fellow faggots.

>>17197061
so shitty abstract art is high brow? seems like a cope

>>17197316
That inadvertently means that Minimialism and Steve Reich were "grandfathered in" into being highbrow.

>>17197316
>no Schubert
>no Fauré
>no Debussy
kinda based but not extremely

>>17197235
I just lost the game.

>>17197482
typical lower middle brow post

>>17197487
>no schubert
good
the other 2 have enough post-87 works that i would think they're included in "after Ives," if only those works specifically. Which, to be fair, still is accurate. At least in Debussy's case.

>>17197482
Is money laundering high brow? Because that is what modern art is for.

this is a typical low brow post, it's a Fox News talking point

I love this graph but wtf has happened to our culture

>jesus, a jew, turned water into wine
>but beer is jewish

>>17198651
Beer is literally estrogenic, gay and jewish
Also, modern "jews" are not the same as the jews of the old testament, or the bible in general. all the true jews of the old testament became Christian. The ones who rejected Jesus (and killed him) created the Judaism we see today. You can read any of the first Christians (the church fathers) and they will say exactly the same thing. Just one google search away.

>>17197061
Dear god…

>>17198454
On what basis are hard drinks and the game of Go Jewish in your estimation?

>>17198791
great a semantic argument that makes no sense
beer is estrogenic! I saw it in one news headline!

>>17198848
I'm >>17198838 and I agree with the schizophrenic idiot that you're talking to about the estrogenic effects of beer. There is a significant amount of research on this topic and it is well-founded that the link between visceral adiposity ("beer belly") and beer does exist.
Why are you trying to attack his allegation on the basis of his own level of research (which you cannot know and is frankly irrelevant) when if you had done any real research yourself you would come to the same conclusion?

>>17198848
sorry this was so combative, I thought about this more and you're basically right, it is "jewish"

>>17198858
no problem bro <3, don't worry about it

>>17198320
One of the reasons I left the classical threads on the music board is they always bitch about Minimalism and Reich in particular. Any mention of post-1950 music inevitably turned into le (((Steve Reich))) ruined music

>>17199187
I guess those threads are full of /pol/lacks larping as "cultured", much like /lit/ (even though the guys on /lit/ have only ever read Evola and skimmed through the Nietzsche page on wikipedia lmao)

>>17198535
you DARE put tomatos in my salad sir?!

>>17197063
Another template

>>17197061
I've always loved this chart. it's so fun to know that people in the 1950s could make and enjoy what is essentially a modern meme template

>>17198791
No. Say all the words you typed out loud, slowly.

The Jews of the old testament (5 books of which make up the modern Torah) remained Jews. The Jews of the new testament (...the teachings of Jesus...), are the ones who became Christians. Do you see the logic? And, of course the first followers of Jesus called those who didn't embrace him untrue. They were zealots who just joined a new cult and such fanaticism is congruent with their willingness to join a new cult.

>No. Say all the words you typed out loud, slowly.
reddit tier response. Can't tell if you're stupid or deliberately missing the point. Rabbinical judaism is formed hundreds of years after Jesus' crucifixion. That's the point.

>>17197061
Proudly middle middle-brow. If you think this is in praise of high brow eggheads then you're precisely who they're trying to mock.

>>17200928
>deconstructed salad in middle brow

anon they're mocking everyone

>>17198838
Not that anon, but Jews go beyond mere weebery, they are Sinophiles. So much so they are coined “JewBus”

>>17198848
Beer raises estrogen, yes. Red wine raises test and lowers estrogen.

>>17197235
this was my thought exactly
