Entitled Findumb Post from a relative newbie on Twitter

I’m aware the economy is crap, and people have personal reasons to quit/move on to better opportunities but subs really need to step up at this point.

I see everyone putting so much time and energy into their craft, online around the clock, not to mention the work involved behind the scenes.. and I don’t think men who come on here understand that

I think last year there was still an understanding of d/s dynamics, respect for dommes, subs weren’t as hard work and it was just really fun.

At least think about how you approach us, manage your expectations financially and don’t rely on us to spoonfeed you the basics!

At the end of the day, we are in a business, and people have the right to book us, book someone else, or not book at all if they don't feel like it or can't afford it.

It is not "their fault" that we aren't doing well, nor is it their responsibility to support us in low times. It is kind if they do, generous and very appreciated, but it's not their responsibility to "step up."

That one line from a "Domme" who is a self-proclaimed findom that doesn't have a website; requires a tribute just to message her; & in all likelihood has never conducted an in-person session; pretty much says it for me... except she actually said it even better in a later post :

As if the measure of a Domme is about a scorecard of how much money you make online (or even overall). My math skills may be off but isn't that just a 2 hour session at $500 per for an actual Pro? In either case, how much money you make has nothing to do with how great you are as an actual Domme, some of whom don't make a dime because they live it rather than work it.

There are people in these conversations who understand what D/s dynamics are actually all about, but I highly doubt this woman is one of them. What do you think & do you agree that Michelle Lacy's attitude is the proper way to look at things from a professional basis?

P.S. Just for clarity, I am an observer of this entire thing who read it because it came across my feed when I was looking for free porn (which is the only reason I still have an account over there) rather than someone involved, and especially not whatever a-hole guy (easy enough to recognize that kind of "sub") threw insults at her. I brought it here because I think the subject is on point for this board rather than "venue-shifting" because I have some kind of beef beyond a general dislike for the entire findumb community & their attempts to steal the definitions of D/s from the lifestyle & Pro/client community.
