The real evil people here are the "artists" that have this kind of attitude. I still remember the "Digital Art isn't real Art" people, which btw still exist among your snobby "Fine Arts" crowds.

I think we should actually ban all digital art platforms, no Photoshop, no special effects, all hand drawn. And I'll use some weird weaponized empathy calling out for the human soul and human creativity.

What a toxic bunch.

Now you bring out the straw man as a defense? How about you use that idea for what you're typing as well.

You're not standing up for art and culture. You're not asking for a "little reflection". You are however just being a cynic. And cynicism is toxic. It's bad for health. It's a weird affliction. Worse it's actively harmful to society.

Optimism is better. Tools that create abundance are better. Managing scarcity is dystopian, and ultimately harmful. It's a mindset that needs to be purged. Creating abundance is a far superior mindset.
