      And they can eat PlayStations? That was your original point and you've said you're not moving the goalposts so I just want to check.

      Also, you're getting annoyed at NASA spending money on space missions, when there's other things you prefer the money to be spent on. But I don't see why that's the fault of NASA, especially when the money isn't real.

      jesus fuck this is the problem with you in this argument you just, really, really, want for space travel to be a good thing that you can enjoy, you are pure "Let People Enjoy Things", repeatedly, and any time anything is inconvenient to that it just disappears like manpower

      I don't actually give a fuck about money. Capitalism is bullshit. Money isn't real. Overcommodification disgusts me. What I care about is what money represents, what REAL, tangible energy goes into shitty projects like this that provide no justifiable returns for 99% of humanity

      Well I dunno Do you feel that way about the NEA (like Rush Limbaugh did, or at least pretended to) Their operating budget is a good 1/2 order of magnitude lower than NASA's but it's still bread and circuses

      The NEA is basically a very esoteric and wasteful substitute for UBI which is pretty much the most fundamental endowment most artists in this country need

      Replying to @Nymphomachy @phyphor @BAlyssaHauk

      If you call it that you immediately generate a -- I think, very justifiable -- response from everyone else who wants a UBI that they don't see why they shouldn't get one for just *not* making art, especially if the art that gets made isn't very popular

      yeah like this is the real gist of the problem isn't it? it's that everyone really wants to be able to do what they want, and a lot of folks go "well why are artists special?"

      In point of fact the NEA is mostly not very controversial at all and most of the money gets allocated to stuff like Shakespeare in the Park for kids, precisely to avoid this kind of thing

      Unfortunately then they get yelled at by serious people in the art community that "There's already SO MUCH generic Shakespeare in the Park shit that gets funded through the private sector and why is your job just to give MORE money to the people who ALREADY get money"

      So then you get a Piss Christ kind of thing once in a while where they try to prove that they are real, credible artists plugged into the art community doing stuff famous educated critics think is valuable and cool Which, inevitably, provokes exactly this backlash

          The backlash is almost a necessary step of the process, like if the normies didn't hate it then you just proved you're pandering to stuff normies already like and you're not accomplishing anything

          I mean piss christ provoked a backlash because we live in a society that suffers the existence of Christianity, which, like the military and NASA, should also go away

          Eh, Piss Christ provoked backlash because it's basically not registered as "art" by the normies Idk I'm kind of a dick here bc I personally would prefer more conventional art and beauty made available to more people and less edge for its own sake.

          I mean I'll cop to my tastes here. I'm vanilla as fuck, I always JUST see the Shakespeare stuff at OSF, I am decidedly turned off by the whole edgy counterculture avant garde art thing.
