What’s wrong is they have a major fascism problem.

As an outsider, it feels like a test balloon for Project 2025.

If it gets too bad, all the Disney buildings will liftoff Starcraft style and hover along to another state.

Uh oh. Did somebody reject his application to art school? Have we not learned anything?

FashSantis is a POS. But the sad truth is that Arts funding is sparse and threadbare everywhere. And attitudes about the importance of art in our lives is at an all time low. Now with the last few career opportunities getting smothered from existence by crap AI gen stuff, it’s hard to believe anyone really gives a shit about art whatever state they are from. We never use the phrase Starving Hedge fund manager, or starving sysadmin, but far more people are a-ok talking about starving artists.
What will be interesting is the fact that Miami is a major fine art hub. This is going to piss off wealthy art owners much more than some artist trying to scrounge together a living off increasingly dwindling art grants.Reddfugee42@lemmy.world 1 year ago
If you think this doesn’t piss off starving artists your grossly out of touch

Of course it is, but it’s not their voices we will hear, it’s the voices of museum directors loosing massive subsidies. I don’t mean to imply that individual artists won’t be hurt, that’s already a given, I’m just saying media won’t focus attention on them.

Let’s see. He’s anti-arts, anti-business, and anti-education. I guess the real question is, does he bring anything positive whatsoever to the table?
