That's what bugs me about the rant so much, he acts like the only way for anyone to possibly be an artist is to get a 100% livable wage from it. There are tons of people who just make art and animation as a side hobby to their main job, that's like half of what newgrounds and smaller twitter artists are. It both implicitly discredits all those artists with a pretentious "oh, I'm better than doing art as a hobby" aura to it, and makes it seem like you have no real passion for what you are making unless you are getting paid for every minute of it. Same with a lot of people's refusals to do webcomics to tell a more complicated story.
