Not all jobs need to exist. I think everyone here is saying they're fine with "influencer" not being an option anymore.
I'd love for that to extend to professional sports, but I understand that's probably a bit too radical, even for Lemmy.
It's labor that a company finds value in, ergo it exists whether you find it annoying or not. Just like telemarketing or insurance. What the issue is, is the simping for the company being able to pay dogshit for the service or not.
Nobody here is simping for Amazon no matter how many times you say it. We just don't have any sympathy for influencers who contribute nothing to society.
