When art is reduced to something that can be bought and sold then nothing stops someone with a lot of money and no cultural understanding from doing this. This is what capitalism gets you, a bunch of people who know the cost of everything and the value of nothing.

You should’ve seen the art in socialist Russia.

You could only paint what the State approved. Some real cultural understanding there.

"drawing"

Honestly, the traditional art crowd isn't any less annoying then the NFT crowd. This pains me to say but maybe they are worse.
