okay that's impossible to read, so here is what is says, c/o Ruskin:
"The opinion of a majority is right only when it is more probable with each individual that he should be right than that he should be wrong, as in the case of a jury. Where is is more probable, with respect to each individual, that he should be wrong than right, the opinion of the minority it the true one. Thus it is in art"
we are presupposing a little hierarchy of taste, hmm?
in which case, it is time to invoke Fake Karl, and also for a little joke:
Q: Why did the formerly rich bourgeois person cross the road?
A: Because TIME magazine did an article on it, and the New Yorker also did an article on it, and their neighbors were doing it, so they wanted to see what it was all about and they heard it'd won an Oscar too...and one of those Nobel prizes, whatever they are. It seemed pretty reputable and they have a greatest hits album coming out.
