That’s a fuckton of “what if” and “should be” when I’m talking about what is. What is is that he’s sold himself to the public for years to the tune of six or seven figures, and god bless him having the opportunity to do so. But fame and money ain’t free and clout comes with responsibilities. He pursued his celebrity, got it, and now has to deal with the downside like all the others.
cool. Maybe you didn’t gather that I wasn’t talking about him, specifically. I don’t care enough. I care about your point about influence, and I made a point about why it’s stupid for some knucklehead being “influential”. That’s why I said, “it’s sad.”
I don’t believe in idolization, hence, my name... Kill Your Idols. So, anyway you cut it, I’m not going to understand “influencer” as a real thing.
