Galtiel,

No reason it can’t be both tbh

Gonna be a whole generation of artists and musicians who think their art isn't good because of the way algorithms work online

Used to be that great art attracts great attention. However I see many bands who are amazing who get something like 2 plays on youtube, or their tweets sink without a trace. I wonder how many of these young kids are gonna give up their artform because of this?

Galtiel,

Also the “people these days aren’t going to want to make art unless they can commercialize it” sentiment.

For as long as there has been art, doomsayers have been complaining that they’ve lived through the last of it to be produced.

Galtiel,

I can’t take that bet until I know which nipple is your favorite

Galtiel,

To be clear, “having the right to do whatever they want” does not equal “they’re not dickbags for doing it.”

Musk randomly decided to rebrand and stole a username he liked from someone because he’s an asshole playing at feudal lord. Sure, there’s no legal repercussions because it is his website. Doesn’t mean he’s not a fucking douche for doing it.

Galtiel,

So you’re just going to ignore reality in favor of what you think “should” be happening.

If someone like you was in charge, we’d swiftly find ourselves living in company towns and working 18 hour days on assembly lines, only to be swiftly culled the instant some form of automation made us redundant.

You say you’re aware that there will always be people to take advantage of a situation where there is absolutely no protections for the consumer, but you are woefully ignorant of the scale to which advantage would be taken.

Galtiel,

We already know what happens when regulations are eased. People die, profits soar, workers are abused. It isn’t some philosophical theory, it’s what happens. It’s what has always happened throughout history.

That’s why there are regulations in the first place. Because horrible things kept happening to people and we collectively decided that it would be better if that didn’t continue. Shitty things happened and as a result, regulations were put into place. That’s what happened and that’s the reality we live in. To suggest otherwise is to live in a fantasy land.

Galtiel,

Music affecting emotions is not the same thing at all as someone writing music to affect your emotions?
