It’s not unlike Stan Lee. Both these universes are massively successful because of the contributions of many. Our culture likes to mythologize the single genius creator.

To add to that Impressionism is also a response to the advent of Photography. Basically, what can a painting capture in reality that a photo can’t.

Feels like more denial. and maybe because a lot of their donors low key support it, they are afraid to come off as “radicals” when pushing back.

See, it’s not that we gave irresponsible amount of power to just a few individuals, it’s that we just don’t have enough benevolent people to weld it.

supreme court is actually a really good model for why creating tiny groups of people that are solely responsible for [very important thing] with little oversight, no accountability, and only a superficial expectation of reasons-giving is a bad idea bc these groups will always stagnate into cowardice

You know a cringe button wouldn’t be such a bad idea on platforms like this. You just wouldn’t be able to design a bottom that wasn’t totally fuck stupid looking.

Yup even institutally speaking, their total unwillingness to entertain any substantial change dealing with the continuous rot and consolidation power is they got us here. MAGAs were not the only one disconnected from reality.

White America could not accept a multiracial pluralistic democracy and then a Black dude got elected president to send them over the edge. And now because the “nice” white folks coddled their bigoted kin, we’re all suffering.

I love centrists man, they believe both that they are the only people smart enough to make important decisions and that anything that happens as a result of those decisions is someone else's fault

One thing that always brings illustrators, comic artists, and visual artists together is the fact that the general public (including fans) will undervalue what we do. “Oh you love your job? Then do this thing for me for next to nothing.”

government agencies don't get to decide on regulations, rando dumbass judges do, which means a lot of really dumbshit decisions and way more impediments to regulating things, which is awesome for evil corporations and really bad for people who like clean air and food that doesn't poison you

This is your reminder that the Union did not enter the war to end slavery but discovered that ending slavery was the only way to win the war. Everything that has brought us here needs to be dismantled if we want to survive. That’s not radicalism; that’s pragmatism.

These folks need to accept that the kind and humane Christian is and always been a small minority among the group. There is no silent majority and likes of John Brown are a rare occasion.
