Art isn't beautiful if it's a cliche, and that makes it difficult. You can't just keep churning out the same kind of stuff and expect it to resonate the same way each time.

On the contrary, most great art - the kind people actually like, not the weird economic/signalling game sort - comes from exactly that, churning out the same kind of stuff.

Populism is for the artistically illiterate. Maybe a typical 5 years old thinks apple juice and hotdogs are the height of culinary arts, but their opinion is worthless to me because they're too uncultivated to know any better.
