Is vtubing an ethical industry if it takes away resources from mentally ill people?

>> No.8815311

And what, distributes those resources to other mentally ill people?

It's free entertainment for probably like 99% of the people so the net gain is a lot of free happiness to go around.

Being happy/reducing stress is good for your health. It's not common around here (rather gets made fun of hard actually) but some people are like "holo changed my life!!" or "holo literally prevented my suicide!!" etc so for those guys, even if it cost them money, their health is probably worth more.

It's like gacha: a handful of people who are succeptable to being influenced pay the majority of the costs to keep things going for everyone else who pay little or nothing at all.

Vtubers tend to have better rates though and you have a better chance spending money to get their attention than you would spending money to get that limited rate-up 5*/6* character.

>why it is okay for people to exploit retards?
Retards are barely people, they are an inferior lifeform, they are poison in the gene pool. The sooner they are exterminated the better. Until they become extinct, the least they can do for daring to even exist is to shut up and be exploited by everyone around them.

It’s below gambling and surprisingly even gacha in this respect. You have no chance of gaining money or even a png. All you get is the hollow satisfaction that you are contributing to a woman, and not even directly because the company she works for takes the majority

How are they "taking away" anything? by offering a product that you're free to either buy or walk away from?

>> No.8836124

No really, but once you've acknowledged that reality, you need to offer people something better or you're just inflicting further cruelty on them. If pretending a fake woman on the internet is their girlfriend brings people the tiniest bit of happiness, do you want to take that away from them and send them back to nothing? It's basically watch Vtubers, or spend all day on less pleasant parts of the internet getting in arguments about literally anything so they can just feel a semblance of emotion, for these people.
So, I don't know. It's on you. Do you have a plan to make every hopelessly lonely, socially dysfunctional person happy? Can you offer these people women, is what I'm saying. Because that's the crux of it.
