if the people who make entertainment and art are comfortable and content with secure jobs
Are you under the impression that the majority of artists are currently in this position lol? Like is that where your brain is broken on this issue you think most people who draw or write for a living are comfortable?
"misguided" You just refuse to face the fact that you are putting arts workers on a pedestal separate from the rest of the working class. They don't deserve job security more than anyone else and they aren't being threatened more than any other workers.

This was said as an extreme end on a sliding scale. It is not my view of how things currently are. Its true of all people the more comfortable they are the less revolutionary potential they have.
Its pretty telling that the only argument you choose to discuss is an argument I wasn't making.
