Beauty makes us transcend our own ego, but not wishing to own or merge with the object we call beautiful, it moves us to something that is beyond human, we can call it the Divine, the Idea...Beauty moves us humans up.
Of course, ideologies that want humans to feel victimized despise and fight beauty, they want human beings to go down, down into themselves, to make them conscious of their ego, and of their imperfections, unfulfilled desires, faults...not to move beyond them, not to transcend them.
