I expect more "artists are just spoiled aristocrats" radioactive takes, but I'm posting this anyway. :this-is-fine:

Soon all artists will be expected to use AI generation as a part of their process. Art will be so devalued that it will be the only way to make enough volume of work to make a living off of it. Resist all you might, but capitalism beat the luddites and it beat the communes and it will beat freelance artists too.

:doomer:

And one day Capital will die too. One day Sol will die too, burning out and sweeping away good and evil alike. Empires fall, seas change; to imagine that something as fragile as a hallucinatory human construct will be eternal is just plain vanity.

If we do not wish to die, the best we can do is evolve and leave our deceased yesterdays behind us.

Similar angst is out there against teachers. I even see that shit on Hexbear because Mrs. Meanface gave them a hard time in 9th grade or whatever.

There is a very real power inbalance between teachers and students, that is a real problem that exists. I have seen teachers bully students they didn't like, several times. The students often changed school, the teachers always stayed and still do.

Edit: I should read "pedagogy of the opressed", I have the experience, but an actual analysis is important.

I don't really disagree with you there.

The "fuck teachers in general, treat them like babysitters and pay them accordingly" angle is what I am against.
