Pretty much this, few people care enough about art to give up complacency so art focuses on the complacency which no one who is complacent wants to confront. So they make up meme villians to validate their complacency and the artist use these meme villians in their writing which on results in thoses.meme villians cry foul and using it as proof that they are the victims and the real meme villian was you all along.

the problem with "great writers" is that the standard for "great writers" is set by the cultural egregore. Artists in the liberal west like to pretend that they push boundaries beyond standard morality and socially acceptable discourse but actually they are slaves to the world mind. As soon as a dictator comes into power, he will promote art that serves his own agenda just as the liberal shadow world spirit does in "democratic" societies. As such, you as someone from a liberal country will not recognize the art produced by the dictatorial society as "great art" because you are judging it by the unconscious norms imposed on you by the world-mind.

>>24726467
Basically massively fund and promote the arts and education and artificially build up this kind of intellectual atmosphere where everyone's really trying to appear more sophisticated than everyone else, force restrictions on visual forms of media so that makes them less appealing. Once eloquence and finesse are seen as the ultimate good, you're set. Might take a while, but you can do anything with unlimited power.

There's no going back to the premodern aristocratic societies that form the embryos for high culture. So something emulating that within a modern framwork... I wonder what that could be?

Fascists weren't communist, they do however use Jacobin style politics, which communists also does. This is the essential reason why people conflate the two.

To an extent, yes. Unfiltered access to the internet does stifle creativity in a way. While we have access to unimaginable resources, it’s like being put in a warehouse with an infinite amount of very art supply in the world, then being told to make a masterpiece. The freedom is overwhelming, especially for people with the capacity for creativity.

Limits on resources and access to information, help create more personalized world views that actually have something to say. When everyone has access to unlimited information all the time, especially regarding current events, they often feel the need to curate opinions on everything, and in today’s world where one moment of a “wrong” opinion, creates a strong social backlash, people develop homogenous worldviews with nothing unique to say about it, just parroting a few tastemakers that can get an opinion out fast enough to be accepted by enough people. And even if they do have something worth saying, the internet lets them say it in short-form, and be rewarded with immediate praise from their peers about how “good” their opinions are.

So, yeah. Oppression that limits access to information in some ways, might yield some interesting art

Robust funding for the arts. Grants, community events, promotion. Stuff like that.
