    “You guys didn’t support this creator when he was alive… all you did was consume his content so he could continue creating instead of getting an office job somewhere.” At least it’s not a take I’ve heard before…that supporting artists isn’t supporting artists…

      “Why didn’t you support Akira Toryiama?!?!?”

      Looks up Oh hey I was just playing some Dragon Quest while watching a blu-ray of the Saiyan Saga what were talking about?

      If he’s asking why I didn’t mail the guy a check directly, well… hey if that’s the requirement than I’ve never supported any artist.
