If social media has taught me anything, it's that the worst people will downplay and rationalize anything to stay in their lil comfort zones and see nothing wrong with the status quo until the gun is pointed at them.
"There's nowhere else to go" NOWHERE WOULD BE BETTER THAN THIS. This is only "the only place" because of this defeatist monopoly enabling mindset, this site only has as much as you put in it.
"you don't understand, I NEED to be on the website that intentionally frontlines manufactured outrage and propaganda! I don't care that it's funnelling all of my art and posts into the GAI spiritual death machine!" - y'all apparently

one of the most important things about being an artist is having respect for your craft and not taking shit from predatory environments and y'all are fine giving away all of it for free to a billionaire trying to replace you? Really?
So many terrified of leaving cuz y'all married to the numbers and that takes precedence over having a spine for some reason. Are you so complacent that you forget why you became an artist in the first place?
