It sucks not being able to use a name I can carry forward with every new art project. When I get banned, I lose all of my following. It has happened so many times now and I've never been able to carry a fan base, at least I could for a little while in the early 2010's before shit got so woke that questioning the Treyvon Martin narrative meant you were socially ostacized... that was my first taste of woke biting me on the ass!
Remember when the news played the doctored 911 call to make George seem racist?
And now every time I do some art or make a post or post a video or make a thread somewhere that racks up anywhere from a few hundred views to 100k+, inevitably I'm banned and that art is lost to the void and, sometimes, I get some donations or whatever, but mostly, I get praise and then after it is banned, I don't even have that praise to draw inspiration from, it's all gone, like my art never existed!
Ya know, as an artist, you need to be able to point at things you've done, whether material or immaterial, as part of your portfolio of work. When you get banned, all of that shit gets lost and has no views anymore, it is really disheartening.
