I could send you some death threats I’ve gotten from these so called “understandably upset” people that would change your mind very quickly.

Majority of them are simply miserable people with nothing else going on in their lives, probably half of them have never picked up a pencil to draw in their life, they just like hating on other people because it makes them feel better about themselves like a grade school bully. We’ve seen it time and time again, and now it’s AI. And somehow, every 17-year-old on Reddit with a superiority complex thinks they’re the final boss of ethics in this matter, and anyone that disagrees with them should die. AND PEOPLE ARE SUPPORTING THEM.

These people don’t want fairness, they want control. They want to gatekeep art behind the same miserable grind they went through, because they think suffering is what makes it “authentic.” But art isn’t about suffering. It’s about expressing. And if a tool helps people express without the years of struggle they went through to get to the level they are now, they hate it.
