Im not trying to be rude, its just that she hates using a trip, and she doesn't use it for garnering attention, yet here she is using it, so there must be a serious reason to force her into doing this against her own wishes, but i just cant figure it out

It's amazing that literal pseuds get filtered by a documentary made to be brought down to, and appeal to the simple understanding of the common people. Wherein the moral imperative lies quite obvious to any seeing intelligent brain, that higher description and explanation can be found in his philosophical works, that is not a bbc documentary.

And I'm sure as a surprise to so many of his critiques from it, the documentary, he does indeed give a definition of beauty in these works proper.

Yes. When things die they are often still beautiful in death. Just look at how the statues age with time, becoming better each year only because they could cease being what they once were. If this is the case, are they even really dead? They become more alive.

Dressing in an old school way, talking in a posh English accent, and being able to mug for the camera goes an extremely long way in convincing wannabe intellectual Americans that you're smart.
