This article gives me the same vibes of that comic strip set in a post apocalyptic wasteland: "But for a beautiful moment in time we created a lot of value for shareholders". It reads like a parody of SV culture. Can some woke capitalist please tell me what's so empowering about women who are forced to sell body pics for a living? Should we thank OnlyFans for exploiting the lack of safety net in our society?

"forced" - you can say that about anybody who has a job and isn't independently wealthy.

Also, the point of the article is that it's much better for the performers than traditional porn.

The overwhelming majority of us are "forced" to sell something for a living. Why make such a distinction between selling body pics versus manual labor?

My code's not too shabby, but I don't think anybody's bust a nut to it.

That's the puritanical aspect. Many things are deemed to be perfectly fine, as long as no one is orgasming to it.

It's certainly a distinction.
