There is no ethical consumption under capitalism. Even if I pay for a product I love some asshole suit is going to get a bigger cut than the artists who did the work.
that's the shitty part! I don't like that one bit.
Then pirate and make sure the creator gets nothing.
not ideal, you know, I would prefer it if creators had pay links attached to their accounts and you could anonymously send them money. Pirate something, pay the creator some money if you can. I mean, if enough people do it, the corps would be forced to change the game.
How do you tip say 500 people who made a film?
The sentiment is great. I'd love this also, but for film it won't work.
They were already paid during production.
The thing that would change is that we won't have movies where 500 people worked on who do it to get a paycheck, but instead 5-20 people who are really passionate about it.
