Street Photography goes against the politically correct narrative

Let’s be clear: Street Photography is more and more a practice not tolerated in this world.

An increasingly dystopian world that in a hypocritical way takes itself as a defender of minorities but precisely the minorities are discriminated and harassed. And the global society even wants to delete them.

There's a growing suspicion and hostility against those who take pictures of people in public spaces. Think about the outrage against Tatsuo Suzuki to make a recent case where the brand went against the photographer, only after they received bad feedback. And the same brand made discrimination against me. only to express my political ideas on the internet. It is a mixture of politically correct agenda and moralism.

If you photograph a little bit more women on the street they say you are a pervert. If you make photos withous asking permission you will be attacked by people with 0 knowledge of what street photography is.

Remember that the system allows a false transgression to give the idea of being in a democracy. But democracy is increasingly rarely represented in every part of the world, with real authoritarian regimes that are being established, relying on fear and manipulating the masses.

The result is what matters: street photographers are less and less respected and well-liked, even by those who are in the world of photography and visual arts. Street photography today is the only type of photography you can't creatively control. Because journalism has been bent to the globalist narrative. And when not, journalists are in trouble. Discriminated. Censored. Fired. Jailed. Killed. Only to express their ideas. Only to show the truth.

Street Photography is a loose cannon. Linked only to the vision of the photographer who responds only to himself and not to rules imposed from above. Here then you find street photographers completely harmless to the system, because they are part of it themselves. but there are others: the ones making a photographic work that shows how the world and society is. How the society is evolving and involuting.

But I can say a thing: real street photography will never be politically correct.
