It has to shift. The only issue is how smooth or ugly it is. I feel like we should focus on minimizing g the unnecessary damage by supporting smaller quality stuff and taking our energy out of the old system as much as we can because that money and power inevitably goes to the top.
It’s why I’m focused more on writing and music than my teaching gig right now. I may need my teaching gig to survive but I think the world is going to start rewarding us more for developing our passion rather than slaving away and trying to catch people with tactics. I like teaching but I HATE trying to convince people to trust me. My art can do that too, better than stupid ads no one knows whether to believe or not
