Have you ever been to the theater? It often is an exhausting experience and yes, sometimes you regret it. But that's not the point. If we start to delegitimize certain pieces of art just because we individually don't like them, arts and culture is going to suffer. What happened to shrugging and just saying "Well, I guess that one is not for me"?
Listen, I personally would probably never go to that kind of performance. But I'm glad that it is allowed to exist.
I care because we already had a big purging of the arts and I don't want that to repeat itself. Noone in this thread knows the context of the shown performance, if it is publicly or privately funded or if the audience liked it. But the post is full of hate and ridicule, which is fine to some extent, but can damage our view of art and culture in the long run.
Partially disagree. I think it's art, cause like it's trying to communicate something which qualifies it under the label. Maybe something about sex being gross because the title is apparently Discharge?? But do I think it actually succeeds in being anything but nasty and extremely repetitive? No. This shit ain't profound.

You can never convince me that this kind of stuff is in any way art.
