THIS motivated the “current largest labor action in USA”? Not the countless other reasons but THIS?

US petty burgies at Sigliberalism are apparently mad their comission-fueled comfortable life are being endangered and are trying to twist Marx to defend it. Also they suddenly started to love IP and cry crocodile tears about poor artists being ripped.

Also lol the donwnvotes in this thread are something entirely else, guy just shared his (admittely non-40k style) pics and every positivity for him is being dogpiled.

    I see you are one of the downvoted posters in that thread, is that why you are so dismissive of artists? Is it socialist to call people “petit-bourgeois” just because you disagree with them? Looking through that thread, they had some great points.

    It seems like your view of artists is some kind of high art gallery artist who splashes paint on a board and then gets 5$ million from it. Or you somehow think the profits at marvel is given to the artists instead of the shareholders. 95% of artists are working class just like you and me.

    Also, we are not in a communist utopia, so cheering for technological advances like this is basically cheering for mass poverty.

      I exactly said who i meant and why so don’t twist my words. It is you, who is building the picture of some huge (mass poverty, really?) and very homogenous group of “artists”.

      It’s also not a hill to die for, it’s already happening and won’t stop.

        OK, when your industry inevitably gets cannabalized by AI, and you are jobless. I will be quoting your words back at you.
