As a gifted artist, I can tell you with certainty: We live in an ethical and aesthetic vacuum because no one wants to support, acknowledge or pay the artists, designers, and visionaries. We pretend to support creative genius, truth tellers, and people who can see the big picture patterns, but no… collective society sacrifices those people… they starve them, marginalize them as people “lucky” to spend their time on “hobbies” and they are crushed by jealous onlookers who cannot stand feeling outdone or outshined. That is the real reason we are being replaced by automation, AI, and Robots…… we support what we feel threatened by- not inspired by. Typical for abuse victims. -Airika
