Can we just round these people up and give them their own island to keep them out of society?

Excuse me, miss, "Your childish need for attention, feelings of inadequacy, and mommy/daddy issues are hanging out."

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 77 points 2 years ago

Who wants bodypaint all over the gear?

[-] mp3@lemmy.ca 71 points 2 years ago

Terribly unhygienic, and she doesn't seem the kind of gymgoers that wipes the equipment when she's done either.

[-] Gazumi@lemmy.world 57 points 2 years ago

The entire scientific community facepalms at this being described as an experiment.

[-] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 20 points 2 years ago

"Experiment" in this case only means "how many views and thirsty comments can I get?"

[-] Patches@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago

Remember kids the difference between science and fucking around is writing it down.

And she ain't writing anything down...

[-] Ech@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I mean...recording it is a form of record keeping...

[-] drphungky@lemmy.world 52 points 2 years ago

Can we not post rage bait articles and commentary on clickbait actions and contribute to endless cycle of takes on takes from people who don't matter? Or can we at least not do it in the news community?

What a moronic story to waste time thinking about.

[-] Mr_Blott@lemmy.world 14 points 2 years ago

I see "Internet slams her" in a headline, I ignore it

Fuckin gash "journalism"

[-] werefreeatlast@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

We need a link to the video so we can just judge for our selves.

[-] vamp07@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

Heaven forbid you are trusted to make up your own mind. We’re not qualified.

[-] pirrrrrrrr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 47 points 2 years ago

What a surprise, she's a streamer on Kick.

[-] qooqie@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago

What’s the difference between kick streamers and twitch streamers?

[-] pirrrrrrrr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 50 points 2 years ago

As I understand it, there are a number of factors to Kick's reputation. But this is my perception so bits might be wrong.

Kick as a platform promotes gambling whether the streamers want to or not, and is known for negative attention is still attention style advertising (banned twitch steamers that now are on kick showing up at events sponsored by twitch, and making a fuss before and after being kicked out) And the majority of Kick streamers appear to have questionable social moral judgement, extreme right-wing political views, or were kicked off Twitch for persistent or gross breach of acceptable conduct.

It was intended as an alternative to Twitch, but rapidly gained a reputation as being the place where shady streamers go.

[-] azertyfun@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 years ago

No, it was always intended as a gambling platform. They are running at an ENORMOUS operating loss, that gets covered by Stake, a gambling website.

The entire business model hinges on driving traffic to Stake. Only more recently did they start pretending like they're not just doing gambling, but whether it's a sincere attempt to pivot or just a distraction... Well I've got opinions.

[-] pirrrrrrrr@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 2 years ago

See. I knew I was missing details. This makes it so much worse.

[-] riodoro1@lemmy.world 29 points 2 years ago

You go to kick when they kick you out of twitch.

[-] Haquer@lemmy.today 8 points 2 years ago

Gambling, mostly.

[-] xc2215x@lemmy.world 46 points 2 years ago

People demand attention so much nowadays. It is unfortunate.

[-] EvilEyedPanda@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Naw we've always striven for attention, we're a communal species and need some sort of validation, it's the internet that has forced us to go ever farther and preform more outrageous antics.

[-] Aussiemandeus@lemmy.world 31 points 2 years ago

I enjoy how he says also you can't video tape others and the video ends

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 10 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Well... at least she didn't change her skin color like I was expecting.

Edit: Sorry... why am I being downvoted for being glad she wasn't wearing blackface?

[-] PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works 22 points 2 years ago

I didn't downvote you, but I did wonder if you thought she was a chameleon.

[-] neidu2@feddit.nl 10 points 2 years ago

I thought it was an X-Men (Mystique) reference

[-] PsychedSy@sh.itjust.works 10 points 2 years ago

This is now a thread on who can find the most wild interpretation.

[-] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 4 points 2 years ago

I thought maybe she was wearing a morph suit and was gonna morph out at some point.

[-] raptir@lemdro.id 8 points 2 years ago

It looks like she's wearing underwear that is painted over. Would they have yelled at her were she not painted?

[-] Letstakealook@lemm.ee 4 points 2 years ago

This trend of women going to the gym to start shit with guys really needs to stop. This particular woman decided to escalate it further by also being unhygienic.

[-] mateomaui@reddthat.com 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

She’s wearing normal bikini bottoms and a sports bra, so while weird, questionable, and probably a bad idea for clicks, I don’t see the unhygienic part of it if she’s wiping down equipment like anyone else. But that’s just me, living among people in bikinis. Having a camera crew seems more objectionable and intrusive.

[-] Witchfire@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The article is ad-riddled clickbait BS. Any article that uses "slammed" as slang in the title is not worth reading. The woman is a standard attention craving influencer doing something unhygienic and acting shocked when people complain. There's nothing to discuss here.

Also, as a performer myself, body paint melts off with sweat and gets fucking everywhere

[-] tacosanonymous@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I guess paint is technically, "covered." I still think it’s super rude to try and get a reaction out of people and filming it, especially in a gym.
