Major art collections are pulling out of the country because we have literally zero enforcement on art crime. There are literally two cops in the country dedicated to it, both in Quebec, and the RCMP has said they won't investigate because it would require them to take on an estimated 5000 cases.

Our cops are all meatheads that only know how to beat on homeless. My buddies business got robbed by a team of guys with pick-up trucks, the cops looked at the footage and said "homeless did it, not investigating." Wouldn't shock me if they were out there robbing people.

I got an art crime for ya. Check out your army lol.

arent't there like whole panels of people who decide whether you get a tax write-off for donating art

so I guess be sure to get your story straight after trivially stealing art if it was for tax purposes

Honestly yeah, feels like a tv show. However, consider this: You exclusively interact with the art world for your living. The art world is absolutely the worst part of being an artist.

Honestly, the army prepared me for that. It is much of the same bullshit. My first art job after leaving the army was working for a pair of artists that were also ex-mil. It made for a good transition.

art crime? car theft? money laundering? what are you nerds so worried about when there's a crisis going on and we need all available police resources deployed in their riot gear 24/7 in case some 19-year-olds need their skulls bashed open in the name of the military-industrial complex

If I was in government I’d pass a law where anyone appearing in media has to declare conflict of interest and the money given by the company they are talking about displayed on TV or else they are fined x$ per appearance.
