What are you doing to make UBI a reality?
How will we support ourselves until the extremely unlikely event that becomes a reality?
What are you doing to support artists through this shitty transition? Hint: Calling us "luddites" and vaguely waffling about the hoped-for death of capitalism is pretty much the opposite of supporting us.
Most artists already fail to earn any real money from their work, so this is not a future question.
Thank you for completely dismissing the existence of myself and the many freelance artists who do make enough money to pay their bills off their work, and our concerns. Well done.
That’s not a too generous reading of my comment..
All I’m saying that it is already a problem that should be better solved, so all the talented artists that as of now can’t sustain themselves from their work can also feed their families.
