That’s like saying they don’t have enough comfort and free time to do art. Actually, the statements are identical. We create not because we can but because we must.

I think you’ll find loads of young people without time for art, too.

Every artist sacrifices other things so that they can do art. I get that we have less to sacrifice than we used to but in objective, absolute, historical terms, we are still sooooo fucking wealthy and have so many opportunities and resources at our disposal. And I say this as someone with a 13k annual income who contributes to FOSS projects.

Oh man you’re so close to getting the point…

We don’t have enough comfort and free time to do art! That’s an actual legitimate thing that’s going on right now
