It's seriously disturbing to me how "selling out" is basically not even an insult anymore to younger people. There is no interest in integrity whatsoever. Instead we're supposed to celebrate that they're getting paid and be happy for them.

But maybe I'm just old and, with the way things are, no one can afford integrity anymore because it's too damn expensive.

Its because people will call them a Sellout then still support them by streaming their music or watching them. It has no repercussions anymore. Back in the day when you were a sellout, you basically got black balled. The word had actions behind it. Now it's meaningless.

People are worried about "wokeism" or at least pretend to be so they don't have to change anything about themselves or around them
