Current Affairs Culture wars & The rise of grifting

Literally type it into YouTube and see a whole host of videos talking about it.

In all fairness (and I can't believe I'm actually agreeing with you on something here lol ) it seems you are actually right with the reaction this has gotten from the black community.

I was curious and took a look myself and there does seem to be a very large group of black content creators and influencers & acedemics who are not happy with this program.

A lot of them saying that it is needlessly devisive and that many well respected activists for various POC communities were blanked for this project in favor of people who like to air more 'provocative' opinions.

Need to take a shower now - brb lol

Where's the grift? Buying horrible music from them? Giving them appearance or speech money? Surely they can't be this batpoop crazy/dense all for nothing.

I’m expecting to hear more from that Mollie Mae love island person in the coming years. People are products. Money can be made by saying things that ‘THE WOKE MSM ARENT TELLING US!?’

The message is secondary, the relevance of the delivery is prime.

That James Melville character on Twitter became a bit of a grifter following the pandemic onset didn't he? He seemed to be fairly sensible and then a switch seemed to flick and all of a sudden he went to the dark side.

Once they see the riches and increased traffic it is clearly hard to say no. I wouldn't say he has gone full grift but Kyle Kulinski essentially releases one sycophantic Rogan video a day and I'm sure has seen his name appear in more algorithms as a result. He was previously becoming a really valuable commentator and I hope he can return to one, but his rogan simping and the influence of breaking points on him is palpable

the only people who should be releasing daily content on youtube are jago hazzard and the forgotten weapons guy

I see absolutely no flaws in this big brain idea

What number is the internet law that when you see a massive surge in subscribers on your twitter account/youtube channel etc., you are 10x more likely to push Ivermectin. Is it Internet Law 51?

I'd make an excellent grifter independent minded pundit. How does one go about fleecing gullible idiots spreading the truth some made up force of oppression they don't want to be revealed?

"War Room". For flip's sake. This is not some sort of light entertainment. People are dying.

I really give up on some of my fellow humans.
