nobody remembers how much money Shakespeare made. everyone remembers his creative works. that's the power of culture.

in our current society, money is often necessary for artists to continue making art, but it has not been and should not be the measure of its success.

artists should be compensated for their labour; copyright and "AI" actively harm artists by placing power into the hands of do-nothing capitalist landlords.

@AmyZenunim fwiw one place where money does come into it is I have a lot of respect for people who make art, film, whatever, on a shoestring budget - which means it's been done with minimal expenditure of the participants time too
