Sometimes you see a post that makes you want to sleep for a century cause of the sheer 'missing the point' of it all.
#dragontalk#eat the rich isn't about shitty content creators who are charging A Fee to access their content#unless they're exploiting the folks they hire to produce or host that content#alienating their fans sucks but THAT'S NOT WHAT EAT THE RICH IS#y'all say eat the rich and be like 'i you say eat the rich and expect us to spare you' like#i don't think the ghost bros are fuckin ellen tier#or even Fucking. Markiplier tier of wealth?#like. it doesn't mean to just eat folks who landed in a nice spot making art or a nice job who could afford a house and a yard#it's the ceos of companies who report record profits while laying off their workers by the hundreds#it's creators who TAKE ADVANTAGE OF THEIR WORKERS TO MAKE A PROFIT#or even take advantage of their Fans to make a profit#the dumb ghost bros aren't taking advantage of folks or selling some sham pyramid scheme thing or anything#it sucks putting their shit behind a paywall especially when folks are looking for that entertainment but#of all the entitled bullshit#you aren't. Owed. access to a Creator's work. even if they've gotten more popular.#you are owed transparency and honesty and maybe even the vague assumption that those involved in the endeavor are being treated fairly#but if fuckin hussie put homestuck behind a 10 dollar a month paywall thay would stil suck but it STILL wouldn't be eat the rich#y'all gonna to after neil gayman for charging for books now? for good omens and shit???#just. i GET the frustration but if there is a revolution we need to tie these folks up for a bit (loony toons style. not like. prison)#and be like#' y'all. y'all. chill. rip out the throat of idk. netflix CEOs or paramount or whatever'#just. thus post was initially going to be gauging my eyes out with marx's rusty spoons but i haven't read enough marc myself#to feel comfortable making that joke
