I mean, It's bad art and all but it's here to stay, maybe this will make it harder for weirdos making a living off of drawing bad art i couldn't care less.

        Why would disabled artists fare any better when their field is being gutted, if anything disabled artists are going to be the first ones made redundant

            Weird pull for "why aren't you also upset about X workers" when you're talking about a field that gets thrown into the exact same 'feminine' barista/womens-studies/sexworker/artist/stay-at-home-parent jobs

            What's more likely, this one field being culled not being worth talking about or defending (a field that coincidentally found a haven in the Soviet Union) or a handful of self-described socialists having deep-rooted patriarchal programming coming through about what "real work" is and being happy some perceived cultural other is getting owned

                You're talking about a field that like half the world population would choose to work in under a socialist system? Even under horrible capitalist work conditions? Of course workers are going to be upset that the bottom 90% of workers are getting crushed.

                Should we not mourn when the GDR fishing coops were gutted just because it's a job that people genuinely liked doing or if it was made obsolete by fully autonomous robotic fishing trawlers?

                    The job that a huge percentage of workers imagine retraining and escaping to, becoming realistically unattainable (or even the vast majority of commission artists that only work it as a second job) is a huge psychic loss for workers across every field

                    Every worker that would rather be a novelist, etc

                    I.e nobody genuinely expects a socialist revolution to happen in our lifetime but everyone can imagine escaping to a job they'd actually like or have wanted since they were children

        That's as dumb as saying me raising your rent you're going to die. If you think this threatens housing you know nothing about rent or working.

            Muh Baristas are bourgeois, work is when men coal mine

            Homosexuality is bourgeois decadence, they're not even creating new workers

                Transport workers (30% of the workforce) aren't real workers and aren't allowed to complain because they can be poorly automated and also an Uber driver was rude to me once

                    Wow you sound like you need a subclass of prole to punch down on so you can feel better about your place in the hierarchy, like you're having some kind of response to some category of workers that you dislike getting too big for their britches in your eyes

                    Maybe you should reconsider your beliefs
