I don't think actual artists celebrate Hamilton or even like, Roma, or whatever bullshit 'event' art.

Rich people like stuff that's lacking challenge but feels exclusive.

Andy Worhol figured that out and turned fine art into a capitalist enterprise for living artists rather than exclusively for collectors of dead people's art.

it's funny to see you discuss the working class as if they were, like, the environment or the economy

just like this familiar but alien abstraction you recognize as important and worthwhile

This may shock you, but the entire idea of class is the idea of social abstraction.

Kohl's is even doing Amazon returns, which is about as owned as you can get.

Kohl’s now accepts Amazon returns at many of its 1,100 stores — packing, labeling and shipping the items free — in an attempt to get more people to walk through its doors. 

They're pretty desperate huh?

If you're mad that one company is steadily absorbing all forms of entertainment, that is natural, cool and good.

If you're mad that "superpowered people punching each other" is the most popular expression of art, i have bad news about literally all of human culture.
