Artists can't pay rent now. They make music though.

I work for a better world. I do not look for excuses to reward corporations that steal from artists to burn libraries, thanks.

I feel like "not paying artists" makes as much for a better world as "not tipping waitstaff".

It's really not something i consider worth my time and attention. I know your liberal programmed virtues tell you that supporting artists under capitalism with your dollar-vote is the done thing, but i don't agree and won't be wasting any more of my time trying to reason you out of such a convoluted position on something that barely matters.
