It's also a machine that thrives on manufacturing drama for clicks. And I just won't engage in the 'meta drama' around any community.

    Working conditions and payment disputes are not "meta drama" and more than a "community" it's an industry of freelancers. You may not care for it but independent entertainment is a huge part of our culture right now, in terms of hours watched per day and revenue generation. It's a parallel arm of the gig economy, uncontracted workers entirely at the mercy of huge media companies and the fickle public.
