[vibrates angrily]
I stg if I had any tolerance for dealing with the general public, I would be telling all those asshole W/atcher fans about how even if they paid their employees the BARE MINIMUM to meet their needs (& I'm talking just needs, just barely, no savings, no retirement, no anything unnecessary literally ever, all meals cooked from scratch at home as cheap as possible), they'd currently be spending AT LEAST $117k on payroll every month. & that's like everyone involved working full time, nothing more, including the three founders.
& guess what y'all? Workers' rights don't just go out the window because you want your shows for free.
These people still deserve a living wage. In fact, they deserve a bit more than that, imo. People deserve to not have to live on bare minimum.
& you don't get to be angry as a fan because creators prioritized keeping & paying their workers over you not having to pay anything for the art/content they make.
They are holding themselves accountable to the people whose lives depend on them. Screaming about how they aren't just abandoning their employees because you're mad just makes you look like an ass.
#never mind the whole thing about artistic integrity & how they all deserve it#vs jumping through the flaming hoops that is trying to run anything on YouTube#also like. Taxes are 100% a thing esp for small businesses???#I feel like people are forgetting how much of business income goes to that.#GODS.#Just tired of people claiming leftist reasons for resisting this#but completely ignoring actual leftist ideals in the process.#some of y'all have never been in devalued artist/creator spaces#& it really fucking shows/#JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN'T PERSONALLY AFFORD ART#DOESN'T MEAN THAT ART IS WORTHLESS & NOT WORTH PAYING FOR
