How is he exploiting them? He’s starting a dialogue about life and how it chews these people up and spits them out. You’re just stupid and can’t comprehend that art isn’t about eye candy and about conveying reality thru a different style and perspective other than stating the obvious. But hey man I’m sure all these homeless people are super mad at him for posting their picture and exposing their way of life and not mad at the society and the failure of the state to help them. Yeah man their real issue is their face being used by a well respected artist and not their material conditions. Again I hope you read this comment and think twice about it. Because from what I can tell by your comment is that you automatically think it’s cruel to post their photos because they aren’t attractive and beautiful perfect people and you assume they have no say in what gets posted or what gets scrapped

His reasoning does not justify the means.

The person on the other end gets nothing but a horrible feeling of being used like an object. I don't think art has a right to take away people's security to achieve the art.

Since you say they are superficial, where in your mind is the line where a photo crosses over from superficial to meaningful?- are all photos not the same thing at the end of the day, just a singular moment captured in a millisecond? 3. How is this stereotyping? Doesn’t “stereotyping” imply something unfair/untrue that is commonly thought about a particular thing/person?

@@the_honey_bagel199 Wow lol, you sound really upset. This must really matter to you. First of all though, who's going to do research every time before they simply make a comment in the comments section? Especially if they're comment is not to claim anything, or try to state some sort of fact, but just to comment about what "might" be. She looked scared to me and startled. That's my opinion, and it's pretty rude of you to call me stupid for simply saying so. You were quite rude throughout your comment actually. There isn't anything I didn't pay attention to, like you claimed and scolded me for. To demand that someone do research on a simple video that lasts a few seconds is just ridiculous. Still, I did what you said I should lol... and did the research. And just like it seemed in the video, she "was" taken by surprise. The photographer did get permission to use each person's photo. But for many of them, including this woman, he didn't ask for permission to "use" the photo until after he had already "taken" the photo. This woman is an older lady, trying to walk and navigate where she was going. I don't know that it was the best time to flash a camera in her face. Still, I'm sure he didn't mean any harm and she agreed for him to use the photo, (she even let him take another... after the first when he flashed the camera in her face, he explained what he was doing, etc), so all is well. Take care. Ps. Your comment to me was to be protective of the photographer. My comment was to be protective of the elderly. Your photographer was the perpetrator of the action; the elderly person was the "receiver". She didn't do anything to "him", he's the one who jumped in front of "her". Just like the video says, he's aggressive. He's also an able-bodied person, and she is less so. There's certainly nothing wrong with making a comment to let people know to be aware of the fact that the elderly are more feeble, can't withstand surprise attacks like the rest of us can even if they're well meaning, and that they do indeed get scared sometimes, misinterpreting all kinds of just even normal things that happen throughout the day. I don't know why you had to be so hateful about just sharing your opinion that the photographer meant well.

There you go again with the rights and the wrongs. God damn it why is everyone a philosopher all of a sudden? Nobody creates what’s right and wrong. It’s just life.

​@JcLive believing in right and wrong is not some philosophical idea. It's literally how we write our laws.

@@gabrielcodina6188 believing you intrinsically know it makes it a philosophical topic. Nobody knows what the difference between right and wrong is because it’s a made up concept.

@PPGP News Then explain who makes money off of rape being illegal. Who? No one. Rape is illegal because it is wrong not because someone is profiting off of it being illegal.

@Supreme Sloth I agree that: discussing whether or not right and wrong are intrinsic concepts or concepts decided on by the victors is a philosophical topic. However, that does not change that: declaring something isn't right doesn't make you a philosopher. If it did, then everyone is a philosopher. And if everyone is a philosopher, no one is a philosopher. Now, let's get philosophical. People have a conscience(except phsycopaths). It tells them what is right and wrong. Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. If you don't have a concscience, it's very difficult to explain the difference between right and wrong. I could explain that: what is right is what is good for society; but then I'd have to explain to you what good is. I could ramble on forever about how what is good and bad has nothing to do with peoples perception of it. What is good and what is bad is about the way it affects the world. You could usually boil down that most absurdists eitheir: ignore their conscience, care more about peoples perception of good and bad rather than what is actually good or bad, or are just straight-up phsychopaths.

I think it's impressive that he's never been knocked out with one punch.

Right? I'm thinking this is why he only does this to elderly people and kids. Shoving a large metal object in someone's face could easily be mistaken for an attack. It's probably why half these people look scared in the photos. What an obnoxious man.
