He's right, people born in the 90s just have a wrapped view of content creators because they grew up getting it for free in the birthing days of the Internet. Humanity is selfish in nature that to have something they've been so easily able to get for free to be harder to get that yes they'd fight against it. But, as he's said, everyone gets paid for their work, why are content creators different?

[Nathaniel Hellerstein]

Is not the workman worthy of his hire?

Technically, work without pay is called slavery.

[Trish Short Lewis]

I love Harlan.

[Robofish]

Boy, I hope Harlan is getting some money from all the views of this video...

[John Smith]

Thank you, Harlan. This non-paying nonsense is the new indenturism.

[Socratic MrMeth]

looked outside lately? opened a newspaper? turned on the TV? if you're not perpetually mad that the people you've been paying want twice as much money for a quarter of what they're supposed to be doing and then roll up in Aston Martins to tell the rest of us to do twice the work for half as much pay, you're either a shill for them or you're 6 months dead.
