I had to deal with some guy at work trying to do some tiktok video and including me in it so I could complement his side gig or some shit (and likely only including me because women get views). And if I complain too much about being included in their grift everyone will shit on me for being a karen or for not helping him with it. Jesus fucking christ, I hate people that try to constantly plaster their face and name on everything to make money. Fuck youtubers, fuck tiktok, fuck ads, stop stealing peoples work for a quick buck ‘by doing commentary’, leave me the fuck alone
If it helps, theres 2 things I respect when it comes to content creators/youtubers/influencers.
They are rarely if ever on camera. Futurecanoe, GrogTV, early Babish, etc.
They are absolutely transparent about how they are making money and they dont try to monetise every avenue.
Very agreed! I’m not much of a video watcher myself, but I do appreciate a well composed video. As I said to another commenter, I think I was just trying to express that sense of “icky” lol
Well if they dont I just dont watch them.
