ELI5: How exactly do people who upload pirated content (suppose from Netflix) benefit from it?

I'm pretty much amazed at how prevelant piracy is and I'm shocked to see at how lengths people will go to upload pirated content. Almost every show/movie is uploaded on some torrent site as soon as within a week of release. This just made me wonder whether people who upload such content earn anything or have any benefits uploading the content?

Some do it simply because they want to share the stuff. There is a whole political movement that disagrees with the copyright altogether.

Some do it for fame. Game cracking is basically a race between different competing teams.

Some do it for money, some download pages pay a share to uploaders to attract content wich in turn attracts more people who watch the ads before.
