    Everyone who is really amazing at art started out pretty sucky, people just don’t see the starting work of the amazing artists they see online. I totally agree with your points and this applies to writing, working out, anything needing sustained effort for improvement.

    Work on it, OP! You will be surprised at how quickly you improve after doing something consistently for a year.





  • It is, a lot of people just have pseudo mystical beliefs about how people will act when there is no state. They like to imagine everything bad about humans is capitalism/the state/insert Boogeyman, not that the state and laws exist because we tried the alternative and no system at all always does work out to might makes right. A warlord always moves in to fill the power vacuum.

    Some people are bastards and any system you create has to be created with the explicit assumptions that people are bastards. Some people just want to believe no one is a bastard or that there are not enough bastards to hurt the reasonable people. I think those people are wildly optimistic, and removing power structures does not remove the temptation to exert power or the ability, only one specific means.
