It's not sharing: it's renting.
- 001sky 12y agoThe thesis is more that it's 'whoring' And the pimp as the 'enabler', (although ostensibly benign) This seems a tad overly dramatic But it works for an essay / thought piece. Pimping definitely scales better, for example. (Scale also diversifies revenue streams) Whereas 'whoring' does not scale well; its not long-term a viable profession. (exploits the young/etc)
- socialist_coder 12y agoI think "whoring" and "pimping" are great analogies. We all know the only person getting a good deal in these transactions are the pimps and the johns, while the whores get screwed and end up trading their time for peanuts. It's not a path to a healthy middle class.
