I wish poets understood that the general population has no interest in what we do, so when we speak we are speaking only to each other. The delusion that poetry is something powerful is a straight line to all kinds of toxic positivities that are really just us lying to ourselves.

I used to work in a bookstore and we had poetry readings. I was talking with this "famous" poet one time and guessed he had made $400 from publishing his last book of poetry (going off the model of $1 per sale and based on sales to overseas and University libraries, not humans.) Freaked him out cuz I was dead on. He was like "how did you know that?" I guessed the number of libraries who pretended to give a shit and added your 15 consumer sales to your Mom and shit, bro.

Yep. Poets have no fans, but some University libraries buy almost anything aspirantly highbrow that exists, where's the lie?

Toxic positivity is one of the few toxic X things that really is legitimately a bad thing for society.
Other than a few famous paintings and so on really the average person doesn't know a thing about art. The people who are interested in specific stuff like poetry do it all in their own world completely separately from anyone else.
Nice gymnastics switching the conversation back to the completely unrelated r-slurred political topic of the day.

she had to get the people back on her side somehow after basically saying what rightoids say about modern art. It didnt work unfortunately as paradoxically criticizing rich white buttholes isnt woke

Lots of people read poetry, just not modern poetry because modern poetry sucks because all academics are tossers

Hi arseupwrongo, it appears that you may be trying to spread dangerous misinformation regarding ineffective COVID-19 treatments based on pseudoscientific hearsay. Your post has been removed because it contained the word ivermectin. We ask that you understand that horse dewormer neither treats, nor prevents, COVID-19. For more information, please read up on what the FDA has to say on the matter:
https://fda.gov/consumers/consumer-updates/why-you-should-not-use-ivermectin-treat-or-prevent-covid-19
COVID-19 is not a joke, it is a global pandemic and it has been hard on all of us. It will likely go down as one of the most defining periods of our generation. Many of us have lost loved ones to the virus. It has caused confusion, fear, frustration, and served to further divide us. Tens of millions around the world have died. There is nothing to be gained by spreading bad science based on very understandable fear.
The only proven method of prevention is the COVID-19 vaccine, paired with appropriate social distancing, handwashing, and masks. Vaccines are free in the United States - if you'd like to locate your nearest vaccine provider, please visit https://vaccines.gov/ and schedule an appointment today.
Thank you.
