She's an artist, not some poor wage slave. The fact she gets paid a living wage at all for doodling in a notebook is thanks to the miracle of consumer capitalism.
Van Gogh couldn't trade his paintings for stale bread.
- suddenlybananas 1y ago"doodling in a notebook". Are you aware of how big of a thing bluey is?
- bobxmax 1y agoYes, and are you aware the role that the massive distribution and marketing machine played in making it that big?
- thatcat 1y agoThe content is never less valuable than the marketing. Marketing and distribution is essentially a gatekeeper that maximizes profit, people would watch bluey without it but capturing the revenues would be more difficult.
- bobxmax 1y agoSpoken like someone who has never marketed anything. No, the marketing is everything. The product is just a floor... it just has to be "good enough". See: pop music.
