Hmm...is this true?
Hmm... seems like some dudebro self-help faggotry that's marketed to brainlets like (you).
>>8004417seems like an evil generalization that harms the naive retards (women) that believe anything printed on paper to be unconditionally true
>>8004417I don't know what the fuck "Resistance" means in this context. But, it's generally true that the less fortunate are more critical of people they envy. It manifests in ways that go a lot deeper than a simple criticism actually. It's called ressentiment.
>>8004417why are you asking me?idiot
>>8004462Ur supposed to ask urself, silly
>>8004417>join critique board>wtf why is everyone being a critic, they must be jealousRetarded faggot/woman brain. Constant Positivism and Silence are the true killers.
2027 is gonna be a good year
>>8004417ok but none of this self help self accountability nonsense will stop other people from taking out their frustrations on me and making my life worse. may aswell not take accountability, enjoy myself, and make other peoples lives worse for fun cause they would do the same for me.
the cure for that is not to stop engaging in critique, but to also create and expose yourself to critique from others consistently
>>8004417No, this is just gay faggot shit. Throw it in the trash
I mean. There's some truth to it. See >>8004452.>>8004417The phrasing and "Resistance" being written with a capital R gives me the vague impression the writer is seeing some spiritual shit where there's none.In short, be wary of book.
>>8004560It could just as easily be Freudian instead of religious (although, that's basically the same thing anyway)
>>8004560>>8004452you guys havent read The War of Art? its a pretty famous book about mentality as an artist (ultimately the message is your brain will do everything in its power to stop you from doing anything difficult, you just have to force yourself to draw)i havent read it in a while but the different Resistances are just methods your brain uses to stop you from doing anything difficult
>>8004591why would I be reading that when Art Spirit is right here, written by actual artist and educator
Don't care. Will continue to piss off artists on here as long as I can draw breath. If I don't get to have an art career, neither do you.
>>8004452As it should be, we should live in a meritocracy and we are currently not. It will always lead to resentment. Most people that make it these days are basically women (because tits) or AI porn makers.you should also be resentful if you were smart, bitter even.
Where is the art? Hellooooooo~
I like War of Art, but these are useful personal dogmas that don't really work at scale.
>>8004417Sounds naive and overly emotional retarded. Probably written by a woman.
>>8004481Anon got it.Most estrogen charged retards smell their own farts and need to cope so hard that everything that isn't hyper positive in their favor or even pretending to be, must be a bad thing, while enabling a culture of lying and deception for the sake of a flimsy and fragile version of "social harmony" that always results in constant drama and tribal wars through the smallest, most insignificant perceived provocation because all the individuals that get attracted by the ideal concept of social harmony i.e. a space where their own flaws are never reflected either by the cancerous culture of silence and positivism or simply by the threat of brute force/excommunication in case of digression from any side, which usually exposes them as the ones committing the sins they do not allow in the first place when they have a target they can justify attacking, which when a target isn't readily available, they will turn to snark and subtle insults constantly trying to play the game of social ladders despite being antithetical to their own ideal of social harmony they preach.Good thing the whole toxic positivity shit is being made fun by normies now as well, since they started noticing the insanity of these creatures, even though it's only focused on the videogames where it's the most obvious.
>>8004417When I saw a Chinaman with a white girl on a subway station in my country, I sperged out to him in Chinese about how he was setting up the CPC by behaving (xingwei) a way that could promote racism towards his Chinese fellows and China at large. Needless to say that I am racist resentful ressentimental a incel.
It is other people who prevents me from living my authentic self by virtue of their cruelty and imbecility.The choice I have is to either criticize them or lash out violently. Accepting them as they are (ugly retarded homunculi) is impossible so long as they wield power over my existence.If I by a stroke of magic were to become the omnipotent being I wish I were, maybe I'd pity them (after exacting appropriate punishment).As things stand though, it is impossible.
>>8004417That is half true.Criticism is still essential for your growth, otherwise there wouldn't be any standard and improvement. You need to debate, to discern honest criticism from spite.
>>8004792The vast majority of people criticising you have no fucking clue about art anyway. You don't need anything. People just love to act smarter than you when you draw. You put years into your craft only for them to come up and acting like they could do it better. The average retards love doing that.
>>8004417Criticising others is not perfectly symptomatic of one's own discontentment, but it can be rooted in those kinds of feelings, sometimes even unconsciously. Worse still is encouragement is not always a good thing, but zoomers seem to think its one of the most important things, no matter how hollow it is. It all depends on context and how well the person giving it knows you.
I only criticise others if I want to insult them.
We do it to bring down the competition.Any praise given to others could and should be directed toward me instead
>>8004802>Worse still is encouragement is not always a good thingthe most effective form of crabbing is praising the wrong thingyou can make an artist stagnate for years with a misguided compliment
>>8004831*cough* Peril *cough*
the fact that you need to put others down shows you will never succeed even if you got instant success served on a platter
>>8004656There's a difference between resentment and ressentiment, tard.
