7:48 FINALLY someone who dislikes Ezra Pound as much as I do 😅😭 but yeah, the only good thing about him was that he edited The Waste Land and thankfully we have that artistic masterpiece. Although I do think it would still have been a masterpiece if he didn't edit it 💀
Ezra Pound is actually kind of a guilty pleasure for me, but as a Gen Xer who grew up idolizing sociopathic boomer rock stars, I'm all for separating the artist from the art.
@@IohannesRhetor aaahhh how do I determine which gen I am fromm 😭 Born 2002. But yeah, reading about Ezra Pound was a WILD RIDE for me 💀 Honestly you are absolutely right. Ezra Pound has to be one of those people for whom seperating art from the artist is ABSOLUTELY necessary 😂(god bless Formalists for this).
While Pound was never a "progressive", in the 1910s, it was not destined that Pound would get caught up in an infantile and stupid ideology of violent conflict and conspiracy, betraying his country and the humanistic literary ideals he had once prized. So, if you're asking me if I think Ezra Pound is "based" the answer is absolutely not. Fascism is an ideology for bitter children who are afraid of the responsibility that comes with freedom, who wish to be beasts because it is hard to be a human.
@@Leblos_Hero what's based, baby edge Lord, is Mussolini ending up on the end of a piano wire and Pound ending up in a mental institution instead of being hanged for a traitor because gay leftist poets interceded for him. (Also, "based"? What is it, 2018?) Anyway, thanks for watching!

@@IohannesRhetor that's a lot of words to say that he, in fact, was based
