These two passages don't seem to have anything to do about the trope of deriving political meaning from anything, the first seems to be just complaining about feminism, and the second is more about rebutting it than actually having anything to do with the trope in question.


->''"I have a theory that the terrible art may be related to the general philosophy of Everyday Feminism. See, a lot of the social justice movement's ideology stems from postmodernist thought which rejects the notion that there exists an objective reality. This means there is no "right" way to do anything, and this serves as an excuse for pretty much whatever they want. If you've ever seen feminist "performance art" which consists of inarticulate screeching or "paintings" consisting of unstructured blobs of menstrual blood, you might notice a pattern."''
-->-- '''[[WebVideo/PossumReviews Dr. Shaym]]''', commenting on WebVideo/SolarSands' video [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVNyKpxNzUw "Art Review: Terrible Art of Everyday Feminism Comics"]]

->''"Thirdly, they're just bad artists. This is obvious as the majority of artists on the internet have feminist leanings, and there are an awful lot of really good artists. There are also lots of bad artists, and while they do often say "it's just my style" this is clearly just an excuse, not a reason, as their art skills do tend to improve over time, showing that they do actually want to get better. This means that ideology rarely does have an effect on one's quality of art.\\
Sure there are some people who view everything as subjective (like that woman who advocated "science from an African perspective") but these are really just anecdotes, and shooting anecdotes all day is, whilst rhetorically effective, intellectually meaningless."''

Interesting exchange, which demonstrates this trope and the reaction to it.
