A new study published in the journal Sexuality & Culture has found that many adolescents in Spain, including those as young as 12, are not only aware of OnlyFans but also see it as a viable and even empowering way to make money. In group discussions with over 160 teenagers, researchers discovered that platforms promoting erotic content are influencing how young people—especially girls—view economic opportunity, self-worth, and sexuality. Teens frequently framed content creation as a personal choice or expression of agency, while minimizing the risks.

"Our society is dead" because enough of them would rather earn the degree and/or teach to make up the difference, particularly vs the vast majority of OF models who aren't making anything close to a livable, or even minimum, wage for their efforts.

Honestly though, I doubt there are more OF models making a decent amount of money than there are teachers, just yet.
