Because people want you to:
1. Make art for free
2. Not receive any praise because it makes them jealous

Because you don't draw. It's true, isn't it? It's fine to want to recognition for genuine merit (which you lack artistically), we all do, but you have to draw first. You just have to draw for its own sake for a long time before even thinking about social media numbers, almost an insane proposition except to those to whom it makes sense.
It's telling that only AI threads can max out on this board, and they singularly do so in a day's time. AI strikes fear into the heart of the non-creative, the no-draw, the mercenary.

It's one of those "true but you shouldn't say it" things
Instead you should just do what you need to do to achieve such a goal without speaking about it (draw, market yourself, network like crazy)

They are not bad per se, it's just that on their own are extremely weak means of motivation that most likely lead an aspiring artist to ruin, specially when there are more enriching and meaningful reasons to commit to the struggles of art.

Think about this, do you think an aspiring boxer is committed to be hit in the face a million times and risk mayor long term physical/mental degradation simply because he wants the wealth and fame of Mike Tyson? Do you think an aspiring racer is committed to risk his life in some of the most brutal crashes in motorsports simply because he wants to be where Max Verstappen is right now? No. Nobody commits to the struggles of a craft solely for something as mundane as riches and bitches.

The highest of the highest didnt make it with such simple minded ideals, they werent thinking about riches and fame as their prime motivation, these people rose to the top because they firstly love what they do, everything else comes second, fame, wealth, legacy, inmortality, etc... These are good reasons, but they are nothing more than mundanities if you are not in love with your craft, which is what happens with many people that come in solely for the riches and bitches.

That's the reason. She's a woman. There's always losers desperate enough (with low enough standards) for any girl out there. Shame it isn't true the other way round, or this wouldn't be such an issue.

If you want to make it a race thing then sure. Poc don't have the class to simply better themselves without posturing first. It takes humility and understanding to know that the only person who matters is you, but you might not get that.

Nah the real reason is because art and videogames, and entertainment in general, is seen as useless and non-utilitarian, and not "contributing to society". But it's ironic because the actual jobs in the economy that are essential to keep it running are lowly paid - like agriculture and farmhands, manual laborers to build infrastructure, sanitation workers, health aid workers, the whole service sector. The "engineer" who only works 3 hours a day and fucks around for the rest of the office hours gets paid more for less real contributions to society than the janitor at a hospital. That janitor is probably saving more lives by keeping a hospital clean than the actual doctors.

The goal ought to be change (not necessarily political or environmental or social or cultural or anything inbetween) - even if the only change it makes is on you.
