      Are you trying positive reinforcement with my Internet etiquette? It doesn’t work great when you do it with affective contempt.

      I thought you were being ironic when you said you know art can evoke emotions but you were mad about the specific emotions this art evokes.

        I am trying to comprehend your intent.
        If we are both art enjoyers, that comprehend art can evoke emotions with comprehension of your audience in mind, why can you evoke disenfranchisement while I can’t?

            I try to keep good company without trying to offend my income, so no, I am not going to attempt to disenfranchise my commissioners.

            But you do you!✌️

              I will. My dick-breathing dragon prints are a top seller with judge-judy tarot coming in a close second. People like being mildly offended, just look at these comments.

              Good luck, truly. The world needs artists. I only downvoted you after you called our friend there an asshole, which I didn’t think was cool, otherwise I enjoyed our debate.

              Edit: Pig was about raising people to be disempowered by shielding them from negativity, and how it does them a disservice. I struggle to find a strong allusion to class struggle, since the primary theme is the danger of being naive.
