how seriously I approach ‘art’ is my prerogative. If one is not comfortable with criticism, they should keep their thoughts to themselves.
how do you reconcile a position which claims to care about folks without enough to eat, with the line complaining about welfare (food assistance)?
It isn’t even critical of the capital-owning class or the oppressive heirarchy which protects the institution of private capital, just an ephemeral ‘rich man up north’ (this is a reactionary dogwhistle, if you’re not familiar with the US)
I think you’re not taking art (and I use this term loosely here) seriously enough.
everything is political, especially to those not in the priveledged position to pretend aloof detachment holds any value whatsoever.
