Description
EVERYONE SUCKS by LG Williams arrives with an apocalyptic cover and a title that demands explication. But this book is not an aesthetic doomsday — quite the opposite.
Subtitled 'I Love Art and Why You Should Too,' the book critiques a system that denies individual genius and replaces freedom with bureaucracy, commerce, and control. Williams defines mediocrity as “a rule of art that does not recognize individual genius or freedoms from forces of control, stupidity, and domination,” reducing rights to three hollow categories: wrong rights, commercial rights, and left rights.
Against Nietzsche’s warning that without conflict humanity grows soft, meaningless, and passionless, Williams calls out the suffocating consensus of contemporary art. He does not advocate that artists become “the last artists,” but he makes clear that the end of meaningful art is near.
Provocative, caustic, and unapologetically direct, Everyone Sucks is Williams at his polemical best — part critique, part love letter, and part warning.
