Now I'm having trouble finding anything online recent thats not rightwing or gov't propaganda claiming the virtues of ending de minimis. Idk maybe I was wrong!

I'm no bot. I fucking hate Trump. I had read that Chinese made fentanyl was being imported to the US through de minimis imports by way of Mexico. So in some respect it makes sense to shut it down. Biden even implemented it (to an extent and much more targeted).

People looking for real emotion from art will still seek that out. People looking for the "elevator music" of art will be able to default to AI stuff. The ones in the biggest risk of AI in art seem to be the MOR (your Post Malone's, your Colleen Hoover's, whathaveyou).
