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.
The Ocean and Space both called, and they disagree
Edit: damn okay we're done exploring and there's nowhere left to colonise, my mistake for making a throwaway joke comment on such a serious topic 🙄
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.
