100% spot on, pump and dumps are especially rampant in crypto because a couple of people can generate a ton of coins and own the entire market for that coin. If they can get that price to rise even just a fractional amount through whatever completely unregulated means they can dump it to the suckers buying and cash out. It’s like printing money but the printing presses are stupid people.
Assuming this is real (it’s not) the art teacher might possibly be right in saying dial it back. Subtlety and nuance are great in art. People like to interpret artists meaning (even if it’s pretty obvious). If they’re anything like the art teachers I’ve had they were familiar with feminism and trying to help the student grow as an artist.
I’m happy to see you’re not talking in the 3rd person anymore though.
