Steve Jobs said you put on the TV and you think it's a conspiracy, they're trying to dumb people down. Then you get older and realize the situation is even worse: they're giving the people what they want. I think about that a lot.

Brutalism is psychological warfare against the soul, designed as it is to overawe not with insipiring grandeur but by creating feelings of despair, confusion, and helplessness
Rap "music" is psychological warfare against the mind, designed to accustom one to vulgarity mixed with catchy beats and pulses that are the antithesis of the sort of order, structure, and complexity that characterized Western music when we were an ascendant, vitalistic, and glorious civilization on the ascent
The combination of Brutalism and rap has been devastating to the Western mind and soul, pushing us away from refined greatness and to confused despair and reflexive vulgarity
