sorry not to dnp post on main but it’s insane to me how people are accusing them of being capitalism lovers and manipulating/exploiting their fan base for…*checks notes* selling tickets/merch bundles for their livestream, aka doing their job
i have genuinely seen people say that joking that people should miss work is “out of touch and disgusting” and that they’re taking advantage of their ND fans by pushing the fact it’s “exclusive and you don’t wanna miss out” because “they know we’ll do anything to buy it”… that is your OWN CHOICE what are we doing here. dan and phil likely aren’t the ones who decide what country the merch can ship to, they definitely don’t create the fees, they’re not exploiting or scamming or manipulating for the love of god the show will be free on youtube eventually. the idea that they simply shouldn’t charge because they’ve “made enough money” do you not know how businesses work they are not the only ones who get paid here
#being upset about hidden fees is very reasonable#and being upset merch won’t ship to you is also valid#but blaming dnp for that and calling them exploitative is ridiculous#it’s frankly an insult to all the effort and work they put in to expect it to just be free automatically#which it WILL be eventually#so if you’re that bothered JUST WAIT!!!#anyways i will be waiting for it to hit youtube but that’s just me#dan howell#phil lester#dan and phil#terrible influence tour
