OnlyFans’ Sophie Rain Pushes Back as Florida ‘Sin Tax’ Plan Refuses to Die

Sophie Rain isn’t backing down.

The OnlyFans creator has spent the past few days locked in a public, increasingly sharp exchange with Florida gubernatorial hopeful James Fishback, after he floated a proposal to slap a 50 percent “sin tax” on OnlyFans creators. What began as a policy soundbite has turned into a full-blown culture skirmish, playing out in real time on X.

Fishback fired the opening shot by singling Rain out while outlining his plan to heavily tax adult-content creators. Rain responded bluntly, suggesting the candidate’s interest might be closer to home than he let on. From there, the gloves came off.

Rain followed up with a video post criticizing the logic of the proposal, calling it punitive and misdirected. Her argument was simple: creators are being targeted while multibillion-dollar corporations legally sidestep federal taxes. “Targeting a group of individuals using their job to survive,” she wrote, “when there are corrupt corporations paying nothing, is insane.”

Fishback jumped into the comments with a populist counterpunch, telling Rain to “pay up” so public school teachers could get a raise. Rain answered just as directly, arguing that teacher salaries could be dramatically improved by closing corporate tax loopholes rather than squeezing independent earners already paying full freight.

The back-and-forth escalated. Rain shared widely circulated data claiming dozens of major U.S. corporations paid zero federal income tax in recent years. She noted she already pays a reported 37 percent income tax and said she’d be willing to contribute more—if the system applied equally. Fishback replied with a broader moral argument, saying he didn’t want “smart, capable women” feeling forced into online sex work, invoking traditional career paths and family roles as the ideal.

Rain wasn’t impressed. She later pointed to reports that the U.S. has issued work visas to OnlyFans creators, framing the platform as legitimate labor in the eyes of federal bureaucracy—while Florida politicians consider taxing it into the ground. “Sounds ironic to me,” she wrote.

Fishback’s response raised eyebrows. “Keep running your mouth,” he commented. “It’s about to be 100%.” The remark drew swift backlash, even from users otherwise sympathetic to tougher taxation.

At its core, the dispute isn’t really about Sophie Rain. It’s about who gets labeled expendable when tax policy turns moral. Rain has positioned herself as a small business owner defending creators who operate without corporate shields or political insulation. Fishback, meanwhile, is leaning into values-driven economics, betting that voters are ready to crack down on platforms like OnlyFans.

For now, neither side is blinking. And as long as the proposal hangs in the air, the argument—about taxes, labor, and who gets to decide what counts as respectable work—looks set to continue.
