Since everyone and their mother is an artist these days, it makes derivative work even more meaningless. It all just takes up retail space like boxes of cereal on a grocery store shelf. Yet, in shameless pursuit of digital clout, artists are trying their hardest to be derivative.

Artist as hero is not a helpful narrative in this era. It makes far too many new artists feel like their choice to pursue creative work is in itself worthy of acknowledgment, or even praise. It inspires artistic mimicry, self aggrandizement, and work that is painfully generic

@pitchfork Pitchfork used to be the gold standard for music reviews, now they pimp that reputation to bait engagement on social media. A writer with a personal vendetta was paid by Pitchfork to write a think piece disguised as a review – this would be laughable if it wasn’t so damn sad.

Regardless of the political dynamic, anytime humans choose to gather by the masses to protest or raise awareness (without sanction from the state), out come the riot police and rubber bullets. When push comes to shove, you are property, to be quelled and controlled as needed.

“God Made Dirt” the album by @ProgressRedPill & @justdanonly is now available for pre-order on limited edition blood red vinyl (only 300 available)! Grab your copy here: matthewprogress.myshopify.com

The Olympics are basically the Hunger Games without the murder. Absurd, extravagant pageantry and meaningless nationalist competition while the humans of this planet live in a violent dystopia.

@Trillhippylove Very

@ProgressRedPill "The Africa is not a country?!" crowd is unfortunately deep.

When you’re speaking about something related to Africa, and you know what country you’re talking about, please name the country. Stop just saying “Africa”

@Symmetry7 Exactly 🙄
