Art itself isn't useless it's just incredibly replicable. There is so much good art out there that people don't need to consume crap.

It's like saying there is no money in being a footballer. Of course there is loads of money in being a footballer. But most people that play football don't make any money.

Pretty sure whoever wrote the meme is talking about essay writing in Arts/Humanities, (not the disciplines where you draw and paint etc which are Fine Arts and are not Faculty of Arts in an academic context.
