@mrsaturday @coolboymew @sun Also I should add something else: internet artists are petty and spiteful towards anyone who even gets too successful in that sphere and might have stepped on some people along the way.

Look at Vivziepop, many of the people who shit on her do it because she managed to break out of that scene. There's some valid reasons to shit on her or her work, but they've been overshadowed by the BlueSky people screeching at her wishing that they could be in her shoes with a big name production.

Or how a problematic artist who drew edgy shit a few years ago will always have someone tagging along every time someone features his art to dump the Google Doc/screenshots. To them, it's no different than an artist actually doing heinous shit.

@mrsaturday @coolboymew @sun Then on the other hand you have the right-wing sphere which either makes obvious political shit (see: Vox Day, the Comicsgate bunch), or something mid-at-best. Some of them are retired and only decided to be chuddy after they moved on from the industry, but their creative output isn't the same as it was back in the day. What has Marty O Donnell done since being the Halo OST guy, or the Earthworm Jim guy?

It makes artists who want to be chuddy have a uphill battle because they are not going to get the same amount of money or e-fame they would be if they said the lines or even stayed silent. I've seen in chats "struggle artists" as I call them lament this and basically admit that they went left wing because nobody on the right would lift a finger, and they felt as if they would make more money/be more talked about if they went the other way.

That's not counting the artists who refuse to try because they feel that the tim heideckers and blockhead joes of the world are going to gatekeep them at any turn. World Peace flaming out was a huge blackpill, and people were split on if that interview was either Sam nuking his chances of being famous or the showbiz version of the KLF Grindcore award show concert. Even 10+ years later, I still feel this blackpilling mindset going on.

Nobody ever breaks down those events of people getting canceled like the Air Crash Investigation show or the USCSB YouTube channel. Instead they think that anything that happens is a result of the powers that be trying to keep someone they liked down. For every person saying Sam needed a tard wrangler/PR guy to keep him from stunts like the interview or powerleveling on Twitter, there were people who were also convinced it was solely Adult Swim trying to stop him.
