I like how he is making money off the movement itself. Should be giving the 'GREAT' BLM(KKK) all the proceeds

When I'm done ranting about elite power that rules the planet under a totalitarian government that uses the media to keep people stupid, my throat gets parched. That's why I drink Orange Drink. - BH

The image does not say "BLM" anywhere on it, however because of the subject matter, he is donating some proceeds to the cause - something which he is not obligated to do. Please explain how he is making money off of the movement. He is actually bringing more positive attention to the movement by being a big-name artist and supporting the cause.mademehmmm wrote:I like how he is making money off the movement itself.

He already increased the price from $55 to $75 compared to other prints in the series. You make it sound like he is taking a portion of his own profits and donating. His cost per print is $20 max. If you are being 'charitable', why not give a portion if not all of you're proceeds to the cause. Instead he just increases the price to offset and keeps his normal profit.ccsmd598 wrote:The image does not say "BLM" anywhere on it, however because of the subject matter, he is donating some proceeds to the cause - something which he is not obligated to do.

This has been beat into the ground. Fact is, he's still doing more than the rest of us. It's still nearly $10k that will go to the cause. We don't know that he's not actually donating ANOTHER $20 of his "take"...making it $40/print to the cause.mademehmmm wrote:He already increased the price from $55 to $75 compared to other prints in the series.

Even if he increases his prices to donate $20 per print to the cause, who the hell cares? Like I said before, he is not obligated to do so. His fan base clearly doesn't care since his prints are selling out - actually if you are really a fan of Shep's work and support the causes and subject matter of his artwork you should be lauding this move on him to do so, not being so cynical about it.mademehmmm wrote:He already increased the price from $55 to $75 compared to other prints in the series.

Edit: and since you've probably never written a politician a letter or stood in a crowd to protest injustice, consider this paying your dues

EDIT: You make it sound like I bought this, no. I hate politics and dont vote. I dont agree with most of his causes and I dont really like Shepard as a person. I just like pretty artwork.
