This is getting so fucking gay... I hate seeing artists I really admire do this pandering virtue signaling bullshit

>>4623051
I don't follow many Japanese artists. Lots of South Americans, Eastern Euro's and misc countries like Indonesia.
>>4623052
Just get off Anglo-net. Use google translate if you have to and just search shit in other languages.

Can you please share some good artists that doesn't post political shit? (Preferably non English so I can follow artists alike later/also Preferably Russian since I'm learning Russian )thank you

>>4623071
I don't follow many Russians but here are some, they are mostly realism/trad since that's what I like and seems Russians gravitate towards
Axen_ - Instragram
victorialyadova_art - instagram
roman.maklakov - instagram
arinovich.art - instagram

>>4623089
Those are sick anon thanks alot!

>>4623101
np, look through who they're following too. You'll find a lot more, its how I find 90% of the people I do now that aren't English/Spanish speakers

>>4623043
I uninstalled Twitter and Instagram for this reason
Fuck this noise and fuck burgers for involving the rest of the world in garbage

Had to unfollow 4 people over this virtue fest.

>>4623043
thank you to all the participating artists, it's working!

Just posted my black square. Justice for George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and Ahmaud Arbery. BLM

>>4623152

My entire feed is black squares except for the baeed russian and iranian artists.

>>4623043
No joke. After I’m not following anyone with pronouns on their bio

>>4623151
This, why do they think a fucking black square will change anything? Holy shit

>>4623157
Europeans and middle easterns are based ngl, they don't give a fuck and just post their art
>>4623158
Oh my fuck yes thanks for the reminder

>>4623043
i follow only porn artists and i didn't know about this trend until i've seen this thread
i am glad we can now sort out who is based and who is virtue-signalling faggot

I just deleted my Facebook app

This shit is not good for my mental health, I can’t concentrate on anything

Ruskies are hella good wth.
I can't find the Axen guy btw.

>>4623237

I part of my wants to unfriend and unfollow anyone in my feed doing this blackout shit. But then I wonder if that makes me an asshole.

>>4623277
It doesn't. You should cater your social media experience by what you enjoy. Don't worry about what other people are going to think. If you use SM for recreation and enjoyment then just only look at and post the shit you like. If people are judging you for not posting a black square or whatever tell them to piss off and get their noses out of your business. What you do on the internet is no one's business but your own

Thank god i am not interested in boring potraits or fanart and my favourite artists are dead

>>4623043
For anyone still following this hack. Fuck OFF, your not a political expert your an artist that draws porn.

>>4623043
unfollowed like 6 artists today for that retarded shit

Originally I thought this shit was goofy but the fact it's making you all butthurt kind of makes me think it was good. I mean it won't help that much or even spread awareness but maybe it'll make you guys scribbling anime coom art to see how many of the artists they admire care about thins other than themselves. It's literally one day out of the year, you don't even have to be online right now.

>>4623361
I want to do it too but what if their art is good

>>4623290
based but you'd get banned from any social media site for that

>>4623373
You don't understand
It's an art community, no one would say shit if it's a political one. Keep everything in their space.
Plus it's not only about that one day. Even b4 they were spamming shit about if you stay silent or whatever that was and it was getting ridiculous

>>4623361
Same. I think my insta gonna be half empty by the end of the day. Or just empty.

>>4623373
>see how many of the artists they admire care about thins other than themselves.
Are you sure they really care? I think it’s much more a matter of them wanting to look like they care. It’s the ultimate virtue signaling. Hell, they might not even be engaging in slacktivism because they believe in the cause so much as trying to avoid getting shit on for not participating!

>>4623361

Most of them are japs and people from /ic/, kind of an unfair advantage with those 2 groups. I don't use social media too much since it sucks for art.

>>4623373
>the fact it's making you all butthurt kind of makes me think it was good
I also feel this way. Get fucked, nerds. I posted my black square, and also went to multiple peaceful protests/marches/vigils in the major US city I live in. If there's one thing that's become blindingly obvious in the past few days, is that people whining about the protests online (especially on 4chan, and even more so on /pol/) are all a bunch of spineless, insignificant pussies.

Wow solved racism with a trend black square. Where were you a month ago? A year ago? Are you scared of being called ignorant that you didn't participate in this trend that 90% don't care about? You are scared aren't?

>>4623415
Wow you really showed 4chan didn't you? Bet it made you feel significant for the first time in your life, and more importantly superior to the other anonymous members of the Korean basket weaving forum you frequent. Don't get used to it, before you know it the riots will be over, no one will care and you will once again just be a single individual loser without a crowd to feel apart of or a cause to feel superior with.

>I've been regularly attending protests, town halls, vigils, marches & other related events for the past ~5 years.
yikes

what's the problem y'all have with artists being normal people with opinions? do their art get worse just because they're interested in what is happening in the world?
i see nothing but white people complaining about it, white people are the problem

like, what's art for you guys? how can you think that it's a separate thing from politics? how can you be so unaware of what you are doing when you make art?
nothing unexpected from the people who think that 3/4 floating heads are art

>>4623512
American are faggots, the world doesn't revolve around your shitty politics

Hoping someone posts a blocklist cause I'm sick of muting these fags

>>4623530
i'm not american

>>4623512
I already unfollow artists for talking too much about their life, I sure as hell won't stay for politics. If you want to talk non-art, make a seperate personal account.

>>4623512
I'm black and I don't like what are they doing.

>REEEEEEEE I'm sick of all this politics in art!

>>4623551
You are retarded and I am black also. I'm not going to tell artists when to speak their mind and how to operate their account.

It's no different from telling professionals,athletes and musicians to shut up about their opinions. Everything you do in the world political. Especially when art is a reflection of your society you grew up in. You obviously have never created art in your fucking life if you honestly thing it's not a vehicle of expression. Jesus you lot are a bunch of fucking autists

just block mute and unfollow the retards

>>4623566
Oh shut the fuck up and get out of here. I followed them for art not to for their opinions. If they said in the bio that they are gonna involve politics in their account I wouldn't have followed them.

>>4623566
>Everything you do in the world political

>>4623043
thats whats color revolution looks like

>>4623569

I've unfollowed so many artists over the past few days for shitting up my timeline, but Dave still remains. Bless his soul he just has to make it a few more hours without a stupid black box and I'll love him forever.

All the Russian artist that I follow don't give a shit, and only about 2 good artist that I like posted it. I unfollowed them without making a scene and I will re follow them after this whole thing blows over and they stopped caring.

>>4623055
Most of them are doing this just so they’re not canceled by the industry they work in. There’s a lot of pressure to speak up and show support for the issue.

Problem is, if you disagree with the protests you will blacklisted. If you stay silent about the issue, you’re also called out on it. So you had to agree with their ideology if you want to keep your networking opportunities.

What’s even worse is even if your intentions are good, someone out there will misconstrue what you say. You now have to apologize for how about people perceive you.

That’s like a woman having to apologize to a guy for giving him wrong signals because he thought her being polite to him was her flirting with him.

I find this interesting because it’s a really good way for already successful artists to virtue signal and keep those at the bottom from gaining momentum

You posted something non-BLM this week? Congrats, you are cancelled forever

based

I-I thought KGJ was based?

One of the more frustrating things to see in this thread is the fact that many of you simply cannot accept that people genuinely care about the issue of excessive police brutality, the disproportionate violence perpetuated by the police against people of color, and all the issues under the large umbrella of systemic racism. You've convinced yourself that everyone is virtue signaling, is showing up due to peer pressure, or out of fear of being canceled in their industry, etc. This just simply isn't the case. There are many, many people who genuinely care about these issues, and you shouldn't brush their voices off by making a bunch of unjustified excuses for them.

>>4623737
Go be a cocksucking faggot elsewhere.

>>4623737
There's something about /ic/ that just sucks the empathy out of people. Maybe the years of people roasting their art and shouting ngmi at them broke their brains along with their dreams.

>>4623742
I’m not sure there’s much empathy abundant anywhere on 4chan. You’re all just a bunch of filthy trolls who troll all day long. You’re bitter hateful incel manchildren who need to stop living in your mothers’ basements.

>>4623047
BASED. Same here.

>>4623716
that's per capita, correct?

>>4623750
You're on 4chan too, you know.

>>4623723
Yeah I haven't mentioned anything about what happened this week and I'm not planning to desu
>>4623737
You are wrong
I said that and will say it million times more,
>art accounts are for art, people followed you for your art, not your opinion on the political events. Want to speak it out? Have a personal account
As simple as that

>>4623761
Nuh uh. You are!

>>4623750
/ic/ is especially bad from my experience though. Back when I was on /fit/ their slogan was literally "We're all gonna make it" and they tried to keep each other motivated. There was ribbing but it was usually done for the bantz, not to actually hurt the other person. /ic/ is the exact opposite with it's "not gonna make it" crab mentality which I can see in your post too since I was agreeing with you and you resorted to calling me a hateful incel manchild, etc out of reflex.

>>4623765
/thread

How do we fix /ic/, bros?

>>4623778
Post flat chests to chase away the trannies

>>4623737
People here have more real empathy (for people who aren't already part of their ingroup) than social media drones, just no patience for shallow politeness. When you have a space where you don't have to keep up appearances it becomes easier to spot instances of others bending over backwards to fit in with their peers.
Obviously police brutality bad, I hope for a future where people are judged on the basis of their character, for a law that is just and enforced justly, etc. but ruining innocent peoples lives to let out resentment isn't a political program. You shouldn't endorse it especially if you do care about black lives.

>>4623736
I think the group that KGJ belongs to is basically a marketing company that just posts trends.
Karl Kopinski is in it as well and he unethusiastically posted a sailormoon redraw saying "I was told to draw this" and he posted the black square even though hes the least political person I've ever seen. Like he didn't mention brexit once yet I'm supposed to believe he cares about american shit?

>>4623768
because anyone can become /fit/ up to a point where it has a positive impact on their life if they put some effort into it, but not everyone can make it as an artist even if they dedicate their life to it.

>>4623165
>Holy shit
because obviously some people are getting triggered over it. very 4chan.

Stop posting black squares you fucking idiots.
Post BLM pictures.
The squares are just being used by people from here to push the actual BLM posts out of sight.

>>4623808
Why did it have to be black squares of all things? It’s almost creative in its lack of creativity.

>>4623043
I don't browse insta more than once a month and I haven't seen this trend on twitter; I posted a drawing there and no one had an issue with it. If anything there's backlash against this tag because it takes away atention from update posts

>>4623737
>guys they genuinely care about thing! i swear it! They do! They sure do!
Are you that delusional or just retarded?
One of the biggest thing in an artist, if not the biggest, is his honesty and loyalty is his work.
Do you think they genuinely care about virtue signaling over their works? It's just a market shit to keep staying in the game
It makes them dishonest, it makes them weak and dirty
Idc about blacks, idc about politics and idc about their "opinions"
Only care about art, everything else stays out the door, especially if dishonest, falseflag and cheaty

>>4623615
Yep. A lot of people are also demanding artists to make art about the situation after screeching for years that white people shouldn't make art about these things because it's not their place. White silence is white violence but we will make sure to mob you later for saying what we told you to say.

>>4623949
>to keep staying in the game

This shit comes out as desperate from artists. It's a shitshow and a mere circlejerk to please their peers and bosses at this point.

>>4623917
No wonder why this shit happend in the first place, Americans will belive in anything

>>4623917
Half my feed is blacking out and the other half is saying don't do it because all the spamming of blank images is covering up information posts. And that the blackout thing was actually started by the police to silence black people.

>>4623971
But what do connections do? Do they promote each other? Get each other exhibits? What about small hobby artists, does it really matter for them?
Honestly, I think most people participating actually want to support the movement and people here don't want to admit it. Is it really so hard to believe that normalfags are supporting some SJW movement?

Yeah I don't understand how you can see yourself as a based boy, someone woke, or above politics but still get triggered over shit like someone making you fuck off.

>I've seen a lot of artists just deleting it
Many people used the hashtag #blacklivesmatter when posting their square, for obvious reasons. Problem is, the hashtag has had plenty of helpful resources and posts (especially in the top posts), but it was just getting completely flooded by these black squares. Folks started pointing this out, but if you already used the hashtag, then editing the hashtag out isn't enough - the algorithm will still serve it up so the only choice is to delete the post.

Thus, many people have been deleting their post.

>>4623737
kek do you really expect the most openly racist website on the internet to have a moment of self reflection or empathy towards anyone
all they do is react, never reflect, and whatever urge crosses their lizard brains first that rhymes with their drunken fathers ranting at the television between their daily beatings is what they run with
these are damaged and bitter people competing with the other bottom groups of society for the most pity, and they get irate when it isn't them being empathized with by big mommy media

>>4624284

Not the guy youre talking to, but i had a hearty chuckle when he posted up a big black square on his twitter that turned out to be the intro to a video. A few folks in the comments were mad about it, almost makes me think his did it on purpose lol

>>4623737
>people genuinely care about the issue of excessive police brutality
and they don't care about people's business, cars etc. being destroyed by rioters?

how come all these FAGGOTS post about how much they care about racism, but don't condemn the destruction that the rioters are causing to innocent people that have nothing to do with any of this?

fuck all of you you dumb sheep. Your "morals" are a joke, you're just virtue signaling whatever opinion that's popular.

>>4624307

Your playing an us vs them game. I never said I condone any of that shit. This is the type of thing that "apolitical" anons like yourself say your against, but your lumping me and everyone that supports peaceful protest, with mongrels that are taking advantage of a shitty situation and causing damage.

>>4624375

Look man, I really can appreciate where you're coming from. I've got no problem with *peaceful* protests and no love for corrupt cops. But when the situation has become OVERWHELMINGLY dominated by violence, blindly putting out support for it all day is tasteless at best or evil at worst in the case of the "no justice no peace" people who are all-in on it.

As unfair as it may or may not be, it's on the peaceful people and their supporters to distance themselves from the violence, not on "apolitical" folks to interpret their gushing support as being for "only the good parts" of the riots. Particularly not when half of these artists are calling everyone racist scumbags and evil monsters for not sharing their zealous support for this shit.

this shit is gay, putting flag filters overtop your avatar after a terrorist attack is gay, yellow ribbons on the back of your suv supporting troops is gay

This whole situation is a mess. Tons of people are telling everyone to not destroy shit, but there's millions of people with no job, so all the retards came out to vandalize shit, so theres not much people can do besides protect people and stores by body blocking, theres alot of videos of all types of people preventing looting and fighting people trying to start shit.

My issue is that where on a site were people always talk about free speech and being able to do and say things without getting cancelled, but as soon as someone they follow does something they don't agree with, they start crying. I'm here to laugh at those people like the faggots they are.

Its fine to have political views, but people don't like having them pervade their escapism. The world shouldn't be put on hold everytime a black person gets killed by a cop.

>>4624528
How is a black box preaching to you?

>>4624519
Coward

>>4624532
the black box has a political message you retard.

>>4624432
If it was just two groups of retards yelling back and forth at each other you'd be right about the /ic/ faggots. Problem is it's the black-box folks that dominate the industry and have all the "cancelation" power. They've got every major company with a social media department behind them. God forbid you disagree with the riots on art twitter or it's a black mark on not just your social standing, but your commission income/career prospects as well. Your only options are to sit there and get called a bootlicking racist, unfollow basically *everyone*, or tank yourself saying something. It's the discriminatory (can't help it, had to) application of canceling around the situation that grinds my gears, personally.

But I'm sure we could disagree on that all day. Either way, cheers man, and here's to being civil and not calling each other niggers. Wouldn't have this problem to begin with if more of the art community was capable of that.

>>4624532
>words are the only way to communicate ideas
Is /ic/ being raided by leftist morons?

>>4624518
Hollow meaningless virtue signaling is why anon.

We don't stop dead in our tracks and comment on every single social injustice do we? No, that would be exhausting and only serve to further infuriate the majority of society that wants to simply live life without the Karens of the world freaking the hell out over every little thing or getting on their soapbox to preach about we need to be educated on (x) when (y) happens.

>>4624535
they disagree with the riots too dumbass and know to separate that from the peaceful protestors. The black box isn't about the rioting

>>4624534
You didn't answer the question. There's a difference between showing support for a message and preaching.
>>4624537
What pedantic faggot. Just say your asshurt people support something you don't agree with.

>>4624541
no one is stopping, the only person who is stopped is you

this black box is just another afront to all your fragile egos because you know you will never be able to draw something that will garner the same level of attention as something that is just a bunch of black pixels

>>4624542
>>4624407
>"it's on the peaceful people and their supporters to distance themselves from the violence, not on "apolitical" folks to interpret their gushing support as being for "only the good parts" of the riots."

Don't make me call you a nigger me and the other guy just agreed it was a bad thing.

I whole hardily agree anon. However, it seems like you would of had to do all this ass licking and virtuous posturing in anyway to really fit in with the social media artist. I think the best option if you don't agree with the movement is to say nothing at all and ignore all the people trying to stir shit.

>>4624350
Same. I've got friends doing this shit as well all you can do is just roll your eyes and carry on with your day.

>>4624542
>The black box isn't about the rioting
But they don't say anything about the rioting. What bothers me is 2 things:

1. Following dumb trends.
2. Not condemning the riots.

If these people really cared about what's going on, they'd say something about the riots. Instead, they tweet a black box and blacklivesmatter and they feel good about themselves. They're as phony as it gets. Why is george floyd worth making a post about, but the rioting is not? they're full of shit virtue signalers and that's that.

>>4623528
Most art isn't political.

This is how you respond to black squares. Just post this and watch the ensuing butthurt.

Then you get to ask people like >>4624543
>Just say your asshurt people support something you don't agree with.
The exact same question.

>>4624569
>dude wtf?!
Oh, sorry, I meant to post a black square but I’m out of toner.

>>4624560
>best option is to say nothing and ignore it

Amen, chief. That's why I'm complaining here instead of twitter lol. Fingers crossed it all settles down soon, anyways, both for people's safety and for the sake of my art feed returning to normal.

>>4624573
This. People don’t realize most of us come here to voice our true thoughts amid the freedom of anonymity while we keep up the facade irl.

All those morons going “hurrr why is 4chan bitching” because 4chan is where people go to say what they truly feel without fear of being scrutinized for it. Half the people you think agree with you on the web, and even irl, likely don’t.

>>4624372
Not the anon you replied to but I gotta refute that.
There are fuck loads of creative content anons on here that are INCOMPARABLE to most of the miserable fucks that populate this website. You can't put some greasy incel chimp next to an actual based no-nonsense grinding artist.

>>4624565
plenty of people are condemning the looting, but condemning peaceful protesting threatens the first amendment. I'd have thought 4chan would be happy with these events considering you are seeing more and more leftists realizing the importance of the 2nd amendment each day.

>>4624579
>There are fuck loads of creative content anons on here that are INCOMPARABLE to most of the miserable fucks that populate this website.

Everything is about me, me, me, with you faggots. How dare someone do something with out your express permission and a written and signed document acclaiming the authenticity of their actions and feelings on the issues? What a fucking bitch. Go make a discord safe space if it all of this triggers you so much.

>>4624587
The fact that I very selectively chose non-accusatory words in my post, and you STILL got butthurt shows you WANT to be upset lmao.

>>4624584
>plenty of people are condemning the looting
not a single one of the artists I've seen who have posted a black square have condemned the looting.

Look where the fuck you are my dude. The "creative visionaries" you're saying are here aren't in that faggot's responses. You're wasting your time and should probably follow your own advice and get back to grinding fundies

>>4624591
That sure is a lot of projections there buddy.

Hours? I actually have timer on my phone that block certain websites after I meet my daily limit for productivity reasons. I spend 30mins a day on 4chan, and most of that while on the toilet.

If anyone is butthurt here, it’s clearly you, you dumb nigger.

When what you "care about" has an humanitarian coating, you're expected to show decency, otherwise you're just the other side of the same coin.
I don't give a shit if you get off from the idea of making people feel bad, what I do care about is whether you are consistent or not with your personality. And you aren't, so any claim or belief you have has no substance.

>>4624284
I am retarded. The one who posted it was "RossDraws". I don't know much about popular artists. I always think the name "Ross" sounds kinda badass so I associated it with the kind of art Dave Rapoza does, but I double checked and he's that asian boysoy who justs traces e-thots.

>>4624584
>plenty of people are condemning the looting
And then they get ganged up on for "telling black people how to protest" and called racists. Nevermind that plenty of black people are against it too, because other black people wanna freak out and they think it's never ok to disagree with a black person period

I had to post this on my insta to fit in with my normie friends. One of my friends already made a big stink about me not posting anything about the movement, since I have a "platform".

It's not in my nature to do that stuff, but if posting something like that can save me having to explain/defend myself to my friends, I'll do it.

>>4624996
>I had to post this on my insta to fit in with my normie friends
Kys.

>>4624340
They wouldn't be in danger if they weren't trying to steal and burn down other people's belongings.
People's livelihoods are on the line and those are DIRECTLY tied to their lives.
By being the savages that they are, the rioters are effectively telling people (normal everyday people; shop owners, etc.) that their invested lifetime doesn't matter. YOU are effectively telling people that their lives don't matter.
Fuck off you arrogant cunt.

>>4624996

It's nice, they'll pull you out of the doomer mindset for just a bit and you can just be a normal people existing... eating dinner, hanging out, watch braindead reality tv.

How come 90% of the looters are black?

Now you might say "well they are doing it out of spite h-haha" but honestly you know that they would be the first in line to plunder even without anarchy, just as you can see on black friday's.

I agree with what you said about police brutality, obviously, but statistically blacks do the most illegal shit so cops are already hardwired and know what to expect, regardless of you being a good chill dude outside of the statistic that just wants to do his shit in piece.
The black community should be the ones who keep such people that give them a bad rep under leash and thus try to improve their general image, but no instead to they act like self entitled faggots who go bat shit crazy on any even remote implication of delusional pseudo-racism aka
>something doesn't go the way I want it to go
>must be racism

This as well, 80% don't give a fk about blacks or race division in general, but they are literally being forced to contribute to it on social media to not be an outcast which could potentially hurt their career.

Now how is this division you are trying to create a good thing? if anything it makes people of color look like even more entitled bitches who just want to act how they want without having to worry about the consequences, and you as a "supporting" bystander are just standing there clapping like an idiot

There's a reason it's called /ic/ and not /ac/ because it's real name is /ic/ - Internet celebrites & politics
It was formed by combining /pol/ and /a/
Some anons here liked drawing hence why there's some drawings here, however as less talked about politics, insteading discussing artworks, and critiquing people who made it, it was changed to artwork & critique, most people however are unaware of this, and continue to deform the board purpose.

State of 4chan right now.

that loneliness is why they cling to trends, i'm sure some care about the cause but before the protests everyone was completely fine with the status quo and now feel forced to make these disingenuous posts as to not be ostracized by contemporaries.

Fuck twitter artists, nothing but a soft skinned hivemind that constantly seeks validation from strangers.

People don't give a fuck about anything, they just follow authority and what's agreed upon by the rest of their society. True ethics are completely absent in human beings. The exact same people who empathize with this shit would have no issue supporting the slaughter of innocents in another timeline where that was the consensus. You think the Germans who outed their Jewish neighbors were doing anything but following the rest of the crowd? The only amount of individuality you can display depends if you're allowed to be contrarian.
