So the guy is bragging/constantly on social media, at work, about having a side hustle?

A) report that shit to your boss. I'm sure they'd be happy to find out that instead of actually doing the job they're supposed to be paid for doing, they're on their phone dicking around on social media.

B) anytime they turn the camera on you, speak your mind and don't hold back. Tell them how shit you think they are for doing this whole thing, how annoying it is for you to constantly deal with their bullshit at work, and that they're a loser for trying to include random strangers in their shit.

C) report them for harassment. Especially if you've told them to stop multiple times. Your boss would like that one, too.

I don't know any of those people fortunately

As a matter of fact, I take it very personaly. Making it near useless is one of my long-term goals, even if only localy.

Yeah but I sympathize, the way money rules your life and how you're allowed to live it is brutal and it's only natural to dream of overcoming that through financial success.

If anyone ever tried doing that to me, I would just ruin their video. I would be like "hey yeah, this guy is actually a pedophile" or something then just ruin it. I will not be someone's object to make money from in that sense. Not unless I'm getting paid.

I would rather be doing a job I don't like because I know I'm not going to fall in love with it enough to make it my life, than to turn something I've fallen in love in doing and making it a job I'll eventually grow to hate because it is seen as a job.

Yeah. Moreso the institutions and structure but even youtubers I like it sorta disgusts me when they get into shilling for ground news or nord vpn. I think their pieces are honestly good and I try to treat it like old time tv with ad spots in the middle of shows but ugh. its sooo.... man this is a phrase that im to old for but it just fits. cringe.

Everything is so hollowed out that the only thing that’s really left is making money. I remember a time when people used to cringe in front of a camera doing those viral dances and stuff. But nowadays everyone is sold on the idea that as long as you keep creating content on social media you will be rewarded for your efforts. Now whether it’s by actual people interested in the things you create or old men trying to sneak a peek into a girl is another thing…

Yeah I did. It makes me want to scream. Everyone just shut the fuck up.

Late stage capitalism. That's it.

List of ways in which this would be illegal under a sensible government:

• affiliation with a banned for-profit privacy violation scheme known as "TikTok"
• attempting to compromise someone's privacy by persuasion to permit the placement of their likeness on the aforementioned "TikTok" in spite of the human right to privacy
• participating in discriminatory sexism by attempting to encourage toxic forms of distinguishing between "women" and "men"
• prioritizing personal financial gain over human rights
• solicitory harassment
• attempting to recieve ad revenue from illegal forms of advertisement
