South Korea's reason for running webcomics well is methodical and could be learned from

2018-08-15 22:49:02 UTC  

That's not a thing

2018-08-15 22:49:03 UTC  

Sort of more along the norwegian model but different

2018-08-15 22:49:15 UTC  

Only without the immigrants

2018-08-15 22:49:17 UTC  

The Norwegian model is just capitalism with a welfare state

2018-08-15 22:49:28 UTC  

Socialism is when the state takes over the market

2018-08-15 22:49:31 UTC  

But only by the people with the capital to get the ball rolling. And all the head honchos in webcomics of the west, are spineless jello.

2018-08-15 22:49:37 UTC  

You watch Tim Pool too, Beemann? 😮

2018-08-15 22:49:48 UTC  

Tim's correct on that one

2018-08-15 22:49:52 UTC  

I know.

2018-08-15 22:49:53 UTC  

I watch Tim Poole

2018-08-15 22:51:36 UTC  

One of the reasons why artists lean to the left so much is because it's actually super hard for artists to do what they do and make a decent living.

2018-08-15 22:51:40 UTC  
2018-08-15 22:51:53 UTC  

Heard about that in dank brigade

2018-08-15 22:51:53 UTC  

Actually.

2018-08-15 22:51:56 UTC  

Shit's fucked

2018-08-15 22:52:03 UTC  

Another big reason most artists are left

2018-08-15 22:52:10 UTC  

Is because people on the right *hate* artists.

2018-08-15 22:52:13 UTC  

Big5 traits

2018-08-15 22:52:27 UTC  

Conservatives act like complete frat bros about it.

2018-08-15 22:52:31 UTC  

All the time.

2018-08-15 22:52:38 UTC  

[citation needed]

2018-08-15 22:52:42 UTC  

Tough.

2018-08-15 22:52:44 UTC  

Wait was he actually banned from having a MasterCard for his beliefs?

2018-08-15 22:52:56 UTC  

The plural of anecdote is not data.

2018-08-15 22:53:02 UTC  

I don't care.

2018-08-15 22:53:07 UTC  

👌

2018-08-15 22:53:08 UTC  

I'm just telling the truth as I've seen it.

2018-08-15 22:53:20 UTC  

I won't always be able to prove it in court, but I won't lie.

2018-08-15 22:53:35 UTC  

so you concede that your point is purely anecdotal.

2018-08-15 22:53:41 UTC  

... Sure?

2018-08-15 22:54:33 UTC  

the right doesn't hate art, rich people love art /s

2018-08-15 22:54:42 UTC  

No.

2018-08-15 22:54:48 UTC  

Rich people buy modern art as a means to stow money.

2018-08-15 22:54:50 UTC  

It's a tax thing.

2018-08-15 22:54:56 UTC  

hence the /s

2018-08-15 22:55:00 UTC  

Any time you've seen art and wondered why it's worth so much, THAT'S WHY

2018-08-15 22:55:50 UTC  

Given the composition of some of the more expensive pieces, it'd be hard to see any other explanation

2018-08-15 22:55:56 UTC  

What I think is FAR more likely the case (and I accept that my point is speculation at best) is that people who work physical labor, people who are more likely to be conservatives, are also more likely to dislike people making as much or more than them for less strenuous work.

2018-08-15 22:56:06 UTC  

Yes.

2018-08-15 22:56:07 UTC  

Not necessarily in a marxist way, but in a jealous way.
