Extreme Subjectivity: The Roots of German Expressionism & Our Ever Leftward Drift

...and subsequent application of "theory" by the Left

Imagine all that is going on around you, all those struggles
Picturing them just like historical incidents
For this is how you should go on to portray them on the stage:
The fight for a job, sweet and bitter conversations
Between the man and his woman, arguments about books
Resignation and revolt, attempt and failure
All these you will go on to portray as historical incidents.
(Even what is happening here, at this moment, with us, is something you
Can regard as a picture in this way)

-Bertolt Brecht, "Speech to Danish working-class actors on the art of observation"
