Banksy might produce the equivalent of Hallmark greeting cards in terms of subversive art but people should still leave him the fuck alone and let people who want some anonymity in this world of horrible surveillance to have that anonymity, especially given that he isn’t hurting anyone.
Some people are determined to leave no scrap of mystery in this world for the sake of online clout or news article engagement or follows and it really sucks. We don’t need to know everything about everyone, to think otherwise is a form of madness brought on by social media & surveillance capitalism.
@realhackhistory yeah but remember when dril got outed and everyone went "So what?" and forgot the answer?

@realhackhistory so Banksy has been named - again...

How is this even news?

His identity has been out there for decades.

@realhackhistory this is like the 4th time his identity has been "revealed" and every time the media is really confused why nobody cares

@russss @realhackhistory Banksy is an idea, not a person. We like the idea, we don’t care about some random dude.

It’s like the Dread Pirate Roberts. No one would surrender to the Dread Pirate Westley.
