I hate how capitalism turns everything into some exploitive, meaningless, ugly product.
Art should be for expression, enjoyment, personal fulfillment. I say this in response to a vendor behind me at school selling "artsy" print shirts. They are artsy because they look vintage, have the usual indie icons and are being sold for $15 and up. It looks so fake and unoriginal. I rather buy from that cool guy from Berlin from livingarts, I met on the anti-war march who was selling patches, postcards, buttons, and print records with a socialist/anti-authoritarian/anti-corp message on them. "Uuu-runium mining is bad." Too cute.
