everything about nft art makes me feel so like. fucking hopeless. lol
#like the amount of people willing to do such an insane amount of damage to the environment for a quick buck#and even if it wasnt harmful to the environment the whole concept is just stupid and harmful#like its just a new kind of art elitism and its sooooo fucking pointless#and the whole way its literally just a pyramid scheme to inflate the value of cryptocurrency....#and how only people who are already well established artists/are wealthy will be able to make any significant money w it.....#and now the whole thing with people like. tokenizing (?) random art that isnt even theirs#so that they can own it and sell it and the original artist might not even be aware that thats happening.......#and you cant even fight this the way that people fought those t shirt bots on twitter last year with disney art#bc if you made a bunch of nfts of disney art yeah that would probably get disney involved and hopefully shut it down but it would be at the#cost of an inhumane amount of energy. so like how do you fight it#idk i hope this dies out soon but if nfts are here to stay i feel like its going to completely decimate online art communities#why even post art online if any random asshole can take it and kind of own it and sell it using an insane amount of pollution#also the concept of like tokenizing things online in general is so fucked up to me#if someone can do it w your art they could do it with like. a picture of your face. or a nude.#like if someone tokenizes something random you post even if they dont make money off of it theyre still like. digitally pissing on it#to claim it. idk it seems so pointless but also insidious to me. i hate all of this#ANYWAYS maybe its just a fad and will be over in a month. i really hope so
