[ Books & Authors ] Open Question : Why are people becoming more and more accepting of mediocrity?
Is it ignorance that allows one to say, “Hey! Your writing skills are amazing!” or “Your photography is breath-taking!” in response to some thrown together, haphazard thing? Have they no knowledge of work from truly competent creators? e.g. Is Taylor Swift really a good singer when she can’t even sing well enough to KEEP her role as Eponine in the new Les Miseribles movie (in production). Why do the masses extol her? Should we be proud of these things?
