'Icky and heartbreaking': The $2 per hour worker behind the OnlyFans boom

Pretty vile system we have created. The society exploits women for their sexuality, OF exploits lonely sadsacks, OF models exploit the underprivileged by outsourcing the demeaning work of chatting with weirdos, etc etc. Shit’s just sad.
Reality is a 4X (eXplore, eXploit, eXpand, eXterminate) game. We’ve practically exausted the Exploration and Expansion phases, so we’re left with Exploitation and Extermination.

We’ve practically exhausted the Exploration and Expansion phases

The Ocean and Space both called, and they disagree

This seems to be the business model of our times. It‘s only more obvious with OF but there are parallels to many booming industries.
