  • I think it is more jaded than mad. We are come to these communities to hang out and spend time in a space with like minded individuals, and when OF girls spam post to sell stuff it cheapens the whole thing. We become a market instead of a place to show off and hang out. All of us are a market everywhere else in our lives, it would be nice to have a fun space full of hot women showing off that is absent that constant drive towards our wallets.

    I have nothing against OF girls or any other sex worker, I just recognize that there are times and places for selling themselves.




  • Not an economist, but I am a mathematician.

    It is 100% BS. 99.999% of the rich don’t get/stay rich by spending money. They buy a mega yacht and create a few hundered jobs for a couple months at best.

    Economies grow when money moves. A billionaire spends 500M on a single yacht and that 500M moves to the yacht manufacturer and their suppliers. That same 500M spent $50 at a time by 10M people spreads that money across hundreds of thousands of businesses at minimum. That means it can be spent by more businesses on paying labor or expanding stock. That is more people getting money to spend money.

    The concept of “trickle down” economics should function just as well as “trickle up” economics, but that requires that the wealthy spend as liberally and as widely as it being more spread out on the bottom. This the failure point. It will all end up at the top anyway, it will just make the world a better place getting there if it starts at the bottom.








  • It got too expensive for her to keep doing that a few years ago and she had to stop. Constantly monitoring every single possible avenue for her content to be shared is extremely onerous. The existence of Lemmy just proves how much she would have to do. Someone could make a Lemmy that is literally just a full rip of her content and as long as the owner did not widly publish its existence then she would likely never find it.
