I really hope more people start believing this. Our current copyright system has been abused and bought by the rich and screws over both consumers and small artists, but "copyright of any form is terrible" is harmful to artists too.
I don't care if it's harmful to artists. "Artist" is not a real job, it's something you nepo-babies can do in your free time outside of cooking McRibs or mining Lithium like the rest of working class folks.
I've never paid for digital content and I ain't about to start.
This is a joke. It has to be.
"Didn't you know the proletariat is supposed to be miserable?"
Artists aren't proletariat if their job is "artist".
