    Tried it with 5 adults around me, 5 for 5 it was accurate. Most that agreed it was art had the stipulation that it looked like Children’s art, but that still was technically art even if they didn’t think it required much skill.

      I never understood the is it art debate. Anything can be art. Whether or not it’s good art is a totally different question and is subjective and up to debate.

        That’s kind of the point. The “high openness” people as mentioned in the article might not think it’s the best art, but concede that someone created it. Ergo it’s art whether you like it or not. The high openness attribute here correlates strongly with left-leaning people.

        While low openness people, who are more often than not right-leaning, will categorically not classify it as art.

        To right-leaning people there is a binary of “art” and “not art.” Left-leaning people tend to believe art exists on a spectrum.

        Take of that what you will, but I think questions like this really just exposes how empathetic people are and what political parties they’re likely to support.
