MODERATORS
This is not the first time I see one of these. The format: X says something. Z puts X's something into question. X supposedly owns Z by revealing how awesome they are.
Why this got me triggered?
Maybe the format. No problem here. Someone else likes this and this is why it gets posted and upvoted. No surprise there.
Maybe the content. In making aesthetics, judgments, we're mostly guided by affections. Trying to own an aesthetic discussion with degrees or prizes is... well, an aesthetic.
Because we all know instances of very knowledgeable people making questionable aesthetic judgements. What makes their judgement questionable is OUR relation to the object in question.
It's this personal relation to the object that structures the whole jugement. This, as people correctly say, it's... subjective.
So, here the proof is like that at many levels. First the level of the meme. You like this format? If yes, you move to the next level. Then the movie itself. If you loved it, you love to hear others praising it to the skies. Finally, the so-called credentials presented here. You consider an Emmy a great award? If feel it is, than you feel vindicated, feeling this is a great argument.
It is not. It's a subjective display of affections masquerading as an argument.
