I'm saying you are supporting amazon in their attempts to not pay their labourers a fair amount.

Influencers aren't Amazon laborers. Jesus Christ man, try to get at least some of the facts right when you make these arguments. They're more like freelance contractors. If the going rate is $25/video, they need to start cranking out more videos.

If I decide I want to be a furniture maker and it takes me 6 months to make a chair, no one is obligated to pay me 6-months salary for it. On the other side of that, if someone offers to pay $x for a chair, and it's going to take me y hours to build it, I don't have to take the job if x/y is too low.

All labor is labor, j3sus chrust try to get at least some of the facts right when you make these arguments.

I'm just going to assume you think everyone who labors under contracting agreements does not deserve fair labor. Because that's literally what you are saying. Fuck those people right? All because I don't personally like what they do.
