YO303 Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) Also i dont understand, are people who like disney suppose to go there and say to themselves "oh yeah ... Disney IS shit", o really bansky, the same people who are okay with blood minerals that produces the macbook pros you (bansky) and all your stupid interns and your fucking fans who really dont give a shit about slaves mining for fucking metals, minerals and diamonds for your fucking sheltered suburban white kid life, but then they go to places like these take a couple of pictures go back to starbucks and tell your group of yago-looking friends that "disney is evil" while you write in your blog (using a MACBOOK PRO) how bansky is the man. I dont blame bansky really, i mean i get what he is trying to say, but at this point i think he found his idiotic audience who just want to feel good about themselves without having to do any ACTUAL work/research/volunteering/activism Edited August 21, 2015 by Deer Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/88521-dismaland/#findComment-2359260 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Atom Dowry Firth Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 (edited) If the point is for people who see it to think to themselves "that's shit" then it's a resounding success really. I like the glitchy Ariel sculpture, not sure what's supposed to be dismal about her though Edit: lol Pete, I'd forgotten about that place.

YO303 Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 There is nothing wrong with the art, I love bansky stuff, but what it now represents is what bansky is "against" which makes me think at this point bansky is some sort of invention by a PR company to corner the armchair activist market.
