No judgement. I actually am at this moment because, uh, cash flow issues.
If anybody watches Doomed with Matt Binder, I'm one of the two or three card declines he mentioned last week that had prevented him getting to 200 patrons, lmao.
Your five expendable dollars would go further if you just gave it to the first homeless person you see every month.
I can say the same about the money that you spent on whatever device you made that post from, or literally any dollar that you spend on entertainment, or any kind of comfort that isn't essential for life.
Which is why I think that as a whole this kind of topic is toxic to the community and that people shouldn't broach it.
You can do whatever you want with your own cash
This discussion could have began and ended with this.
But committing defending that decision when someone else points out “hey we should consider how we can aid those who most need it in our immediate community” is lib shit.
This originally began with someone suggesting I donate to a politician. And in my exchange with you, I've only asked where the line is.
They already have a ton of money and you get the pod for free, I see no reason why you would give them more money when you could give it to an org or person that actually needs it?
I guess it just seems a little crazy to me, but it's your cash so spend it how you want, I'm not here to shame you for it or anything, we just have different things we are happy to spend on.
True, but it would probably continue if it make 10% of the money it makes now as that would still be a very comfortable living, especially for the what they do.
Patreon subscription gang

That's exactly where this line of thinking ends up though. Why stop at the chapo subscription when I own an Xbox? A color TV and microwave oven?!

Thank you.

You've seen their bank statements?
No, the asking price is $5.
"For the top 1% of podcasters, it's beyond supplemental cash — it's a very comfortable living. Chapo Trap House, an irreverent politics podcast, makes over $170,000 each month from its nearly 40,000 patrons. "Last Podcast on the Left," a true crime and paranormal podcast, pulls in almost $60,000.".

I want the podcast to continue, and they'll probably continue if it stays making money.
