First of all, I just passed 6k followers and I’m floored. I am absolutely amazed that so many people find why I say interesting enough that they might wasn’t to here more.
Or the memes make you crack up.
Either way, I thank you all
Recently I posted a ridiculous painting of trump portrayed as a hero... I absolutely suggested that, by portraying him as a hero, the artist should bear some responsibility for inciting violence.
By this I did not mean legal responsibility, but rather a personal responsibility.
It probably will not surprise many of you, but I am an artist.
Art is definitely protected by the first amendment.
I have said
before that those with an audience and any influence bear some responsibility for what they put out. That’s the top of the info supply chain. If you use your influence to peddle disinformation /hate speech and incite violence, then the results are on you.
I hope this helps clarify my intent.
When I was a kid, the news, with the exception of the occasional fluff piece, was terribly boring.
Monotone anchors told the audience about the days events.
They reported facts with no spin on it.
I think news as infotainment
