Avatar director, who moved to New Zealand after the Covid pandemic says he will soon be a citizen of a country where people ‘are, for the most part, sane’
A quick skim of the article, he also cites how the US doesn’t believe in vaccines and that trump is a train wreck. That said, he did make the quote and is a rich douche so…. Point stands
Every one of us profits from a system that exploits workers. There are workers who can’t even get online, they’re suffering more than you, and what little you have is partly due to their underpaid efforts.
Don’t let imperfection be the enemy of good. We’re all a part of a system that exploits others, so that can’t be any useful metric as it paints everyone.
No, if he hadn’t been allowed to take billions of dollars in profits off the movies and intead the rewards had been more equitably distributed, they would have been better off.
I don’t get what’s so difficult about this concept. One guy doesn’t do much work, gets most of the money. Bunch of people do most of the work, get very little money. Way too many people with no money, “this is the best possible system and I will defend it with my dying breath.”

Who got exploited in his case?
3D animators at least
So if he hadn’t made Avatar, they would have been better off?
