@nicksilkey@hachyderm.io @brianmerchant@mastodon.social this was really well said. The same way the rich turned the obscure but once meaningful worlds modern and abstract art into a meaningless money laundering scheme, the world of tech then turned their capitalist mindset to poisoning the actual art people enjoy. As above, so below. Compare that to the Bauhaus movement, that saw positive potential in mass production and created many beautiful and valuable things.
