    I don’t regret any of this one bit, you look them up and it’s always someone shilling products extremely hard while doing extremely low effort content like reaction videos or streaming Minecraft.

      This.
      The TV stations around me are desperate to attract the young viewers, so they always have influencers as guests on their shows and what not, and I simply do not get it.

      Today’s guest: Billy Bobberson.
      What’s he famous for? Oh he posts some selfies on Instagram daily and every other post is a sponsored brand promo.
      Why the fuck do people even follow influencers like this???

        Because most people are stupid. It is easier for stupid people to follow fake celebrities aka influencers, than to read a book or think for themselves.
