And here you just... admit you don't have the knowledge required to support your opinion (which wouldn't even be required except that your own argument says it is) but also you're right anyway, and people who disagree with you are wrong even though maybe they do have this expert knowledge.

I'm saying there are things you don't need to understand or to be able to articulate to realize you're right about them.

To go back to physics there are hundreds of examples in your every day life that you could figure out through observation even if you haven't taken a single physics course. Like you don't need to know the equation for centripital force to know that clearly when you swing something around your head it's going to follow a specific path if you let it go. Similarly with art you're going to find that there are certain choices that when made are going to make the average person not really interested in it. If you need a class to explain why the average person SHOULD be interested in it, that's a bullshit class.

The only people who care about being able to articulate specifically why the art sucks are the losers who don't have anything better to do with their degree than win internet arguments. If you argue on their level you've already lost.
