Who cares if they are Drug dealer or on Only Fans. Do they put the cart back at the store?

Drug dealers and OF girls aren't the ones making your life miserable Greg.

[–] Belgdore@lemm.ee 15 points 2 days ago

I hope the point is that the people who set the social norms (which make you think OF girls and Drug Dealers are bad people) are the real enemy.

[–] Rooskie91@discuss.online 35 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Drug deals and OF girls can be good people, but someone who judges people based on the nature of their labor can't.

[–] johannesvanderwhales@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

What if they work for a PMC? I'd probably judge that. Or worse, what if they're a CEO?

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

what if they’re a CEO?

the nature of their labor

WTYP. The most famous CEOs don't work. They just exploit the work of others.

[–] Chess@lemmy.world 11 points 2 days ago (1 children)

putting Drug Dealers in comparison with OF girls is kinda bad

Why do you expect to be reward for being a good person? That’s just the baseline everyone should meet.

You will never get financially ahead of everyone else by being a good worker bee. Sorry your parents and teachers lied to you. Doing well in school and getting a degree is not a pathway to riches. The vast majority of people who went from rags to riches went off the beaten path and took a massive risk.

Also sex work doesn’t make someone a bad person.

[–] KurtVonnegut@mander.xyz 6 points 2 days ago

Totally agree, although I would say "... the vast majority of people who went from rags to riches were self-obsessed assholes at at least one part of their life".

I’ve got serious tech skills I could be using for evil.

Every day I wake up destitute, I think,

Why not. Why shouldn’t I create a fully automated ecommerce site dropshipping AI trash to Etsy & elsewhere? Hell, why not start a cult? I can at least source cheap FlavorAid.

drog dealer

[–] Cryophilia@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

In what the fuck kind of fucked up shitty social media do you have to censor "drug"? Is this a goddamn Mormon meme or some shit?

[–] PhlubbaDubba@lemm.ee 40 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It's funny because they compared themself to a picture of one of the worst people imagined to argue they're a good person

[–] BruceTwarzen@lemm.ee 17 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I find people paying for OF way weirder than people doing OF

[–] goodthanks@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

I don't have anything against OF or sex work, but I've always though that negative judgements against clients suggest a negative judgement against the service provider. If the act of providing the service is OK then surely the act of receiving the service is also morally sound? Unless the service provider has a morally ambivalent attitude to their own work? I say this as someone who had a long term partner doing sex work. Contempt for clients seems unfair and possibly hypocritical. Just people trying to satisfy a biological and emotional need.

[–] Tartas1995@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 2 days ago

Honestly I don't get the OF hate in general. We all have watched porn and we probably liked at least some of what we have seen. What is wrong about earning a living with producing what other people want and like? And as I don't think, we argue about people consuming porn but about paying for it, what the fuck is wrong with paying the content creator? Why do we prefer paying agencies with ad revenue while the agency effectively scams their talent? Why no ads but cash? Why agency and not talent?

turning on the big Consent Manufacturing Machine

"You can GET RICH QUICK! with this ONE NEAT TRICK! if you're willing to coughdo a huge bit of gray market work in a high risk industry for a very long timecough and then YOU'LL BE SET FOR cougha very shortcough LIFE!"

Friendly reminder that Drug Dealers Mostly Live With Their Moms and the average camgirls don't do much better. This is a high risk, low reward industry operating in an informal economy with no labor protections that needs an enormous marketing budget in order to keep people engaged with it.

You can sell pictures of your gaping asshole and still be a good person.

It's just a matter of perspective.

Drag's not illegal yet, selling it is still a legitimate career path.

Remember the girl that said shit like "Mm ice cream so good" and "gang gang" on TikTok? She got hella rich. I remember she reported a number, I don't ever what it was, but she made it in a week and it was more than my annual salary.

So you're a good person but people doing OF aren't?? Just start an OF and get over yourself.

[–] daggermoon@lemmy.world 101 points 3 days ago (1 children)

The majority of drug dealers and only fans models are poor like the rest of us.

[–] bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de 38 points 3 days ago

Yeah, this guy doesn't know enough drug dealers and only fans models.

[–] dance_ninja@lemmy.world 5 points 2 days ago

I'm sure they still need to hustle to make that bank.

[–] sxan@midwest.social 195 points 4 days ago (4 children)

Dr*g?

So, I was at my pharmacy today getting my prescription dr*gs, and afterward stopped by my dealer to pick up some fucking heroin.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 86 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I can't believe you swore on the fucking internet. Unbelievable!

Selection bias. As if drug dealers never go to prison, or die early...

I'd say the same applies to only fans models. Well, not the prison or early grave part. Most successful models are a tiny fraction of people who traded sex on tape for the equivalent of minimum wages.

[–] BananaTrifleViolin@lemmy.world 119 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Why "dr*g"? That's a wierd bit of censorship - making a joke about drugs and sex workers and feeling the need to censor the word drug? I don't get it?

[–] mortemtyrannis@lemmy.ml 105 points 3 days ago (1 children)

They don’t want their lemmy post demonetised.

Are you implying people on OnlyFans aren't good people?!

[–] dan@upvote.au 93 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

Yeah this is strange. People need to stop vilifying sex work. If the person is doing it willingly, they're not hurting anyone, and they enjoy doing it, what's the problem?

I mean, the rich drug dealers you know are rich from dealing, aren't the ones to have that lifestyle long term.

The sensible and rich drug dealers are the ones you wouldn't know about. Quite a few of them are landlords here in the UK (I can't provide numbers, just a what I know thing so I won't be offended if no one believes it - these are just my ramblings, officer).
Basically just sensible ways to turn black market income into seemingly legitimate income, through either self-employed businesses or other means.

They'll have seemingly regular jobs, and will do their best to appear legitimate to not raise any red flags. You'd be very surprised at who the most successful drug dealers are, however chances are you'll never know as well.
