TechTakes

A friend was just telling me about these Tiktok dance cults where they house young people and pay them to do dance videos all day. They're young, get to do what they want, live in a big house, and get paid well.... today. You know, ask young gymnists and other sports figures how the retirement plan for young physcal performers is after your handlers have sucked every bit of money out of you there is.

But how could you tell these kids otherwise? It's not like sex workers (or any workers really) have infinite choices. You take what pay you can get sometimes to do what work there is. And when that work is hyper-exploitative but still better than any other offer around, what are you supposed to do? It's be exploited and have your personality stolen to sell to other sex-starved, alienated proletarians; or starve. What a choice.
