I will say it is really funny to see people who used the "you should support genAI or you're ableist" type rhetoric act like it's totally easy to learn to make artistic goods by hand though. Yes, artists should be doing this instead of making dropshipping factory workers manufacture their charms and plushes. Still, it's not easy to learn these skills, especially for disabled artists. so if you don't make the effort to support disabled artists and help them pay for the supplies and time/labor they gotta spend to learn, instead of just shit talking, you look like kind of a jerk I think
basically, here are two groups of people I can guarantee you tumblr users will never care about, as much as they may pretend to for moral purity reasons: disabled artists and exploited workers in other countries
#.txt#thats all the rest that i got to say on the matter !#ive only ever had 1 set of stickers manufactured personally. plan on picking up a cricut so i dont have to do that again#so idk what the answer is to 'should you genuinely look down on an artist for getting merch manufactured ?'#i dont think most of the people on either side of this actually give a real damn about workers rights if you want me to get SPICY honest
