Here's this week's Hot Take straight from tiktok:
If you run a small business, particularly any small business in which you hand-craft any product, you should never ever charge more than *insert ridiculously low price here* because if you do charge more than *insert ridiculously low price here* then you're a greedy capitalist sell-out and a classist and you deserve to have your small business shut down for being unwilling to undersell your hard work, talent, time and effort for the sake of selfish brats on the internet who refuse to pay full price and instead insist on paying you in Exposure :) /s.
Basically, an etsy shop owner put out a sound on tiktok that says "it costs that much cos it takes me fucking hours" IN RESPONSE to arrogant little cunts trying to tell them that they're overcharging and that they should only be selling their HANDMADE CRAFTS for under $10.
And now more arrogant little cunts are mad because they're deliberately misinterpreting the song and claiming that the original creator means that "if you're poor don't shop here lmao" like? No? That's not what they're saying at all? Listen to the actual words for once?
Sometimes shit just isn't about you oh my fucking god! Get over yourselves!
Oh and for the smartasses going "ha I could make that myself though why should I pay money for it?" MAKE IT YOURSELF THEN. For fucks sake if it's so easy, do it yourself.
Stop shitting on small business owners for trying to make a goddamn living off their craft ffs. You're not cool. Move along.
