If you make copies and whatnot, then yes, they are worthless. But you are generalizing every artist as the same. A lot of artists spend HOURS drawing something.

The value depends on the goodness of the art.

Saying that they are absolutely worth nothing is just.. really insensitive and selfish.

It's like saying artists should never ask for money when doing commissions even though they spend a lot of time on it.

Probably the weirdest thing in your argument is saying that a masterpiece should have around 5k likes only to get a few rims. 5k? Do you know how much time and commitment that would take?

Again, my base point is: Stop saying that just because of some moldy apples the whole batch deserves to be thrown out. The artists who spend a lot of time on their art and don't make copies deserve really good items. Don't generalize, really.
