    I can guarantee you can buy art for less than food if you really want to.

    But your problem isn’t with elitism, it’s with capitalism that prevented you from learning a basic human skill.

      Yeah and a lot of people can’t really afford food right now, do they not deserve an easy and free way to produce the art they want?

        If they can’t afford food they can sell their gaming computer they’re using for a local model. Or they can pick up real art as it’s a cheaper hobby than AI art.

        Yeah, it’s called ‘go buy fucking art supplies and learn yourself.’

        Why are you entitled to ‘art?’

        If you want something, learn to make it yourself, or better yet, find a way to pay someone to make it for you.

          Because art is a fundamental part of the human experience. No matter how you want to produce it.

          And people that want to limit how you create things or what you’re allowed to create are just elitists.
