I listen to a few podcasts that have no ads at all, so that's also not true.

I'm not blaming any single person, I'm blaming the attitude they (and many people in general) approach it with.

It is true that some podcasts make money via other means, for sure. I didn't intend to say all podcasts, but many (most?) do have ads as the only way they make money. However, do you not want a Sponsorblock for others so you can have your cake and eat it too, just like you do now with adblockers? That's how you really give them the middle finger.
