Sorry for the late reply, the act of living itself makes me see the world slightly differently every day as new events unfurl.

I prefer learning from observations rather than being subjected to ideological propaganda. One respects the sovereignty of my conscience, the other does not.

Art does have a great impact on everyone's conscience, this is what makes it poignant. But there is good art and bad art, and in my book, ideological art is always bad since it veers your mind towards ideologies, towards a self-imprisonment of the mind, towards a false sense of consciousness, etc.
