This isn’t jealousy, it’s “the system is broken, here’s an example of what I mean”
that’s not jealousy, it’s an observation
its calling bullshit on this idiocy called the world
it can be both. who wouldn’t want, at least for a while, inurement from financial consequences. And those that have it also still want to retain it. Mimetic desire or not, it is still desired by those who have or have not.
The only reason to frame not wanting to suffer as bad is if you want to inflict that suffering
Ugh, I saw that video once, cringed and moved on. I don’t understand why this was passed around so much. But good for her for playing the game. I woulda buried my head in the sand if I went viral for bragging about my awesome schmowshem sloppy toppies
People say her podcast is actually good. I don’t know, I haven’t listened to it, but if so, then she is playing the game with decidedly more skill than just one 5-second video clip.
Honestly, I back the hustle. Even catch me outside chick. If that gets you ahead, fair does. Men have been espousing far more damaging rhetoric and making a buck. Go for it. Disclaimer: I’ve not listened to her podcast so she could be a Nazi for all I know. But young people, cost of living - if it works and it’s not hurting you or the community, then go for it.
Handed an audience. Monetized it. Not posting nudes.
She cracked the code.
She is actually pretty sweet and smart and I have a lot of respect for her making the most of what’s happened.
People say her podcast is actually good
I thought that was a meme…
…Is the Talk Tuah podcast actually talking about the historic warfare patterns of the Spanish Armada?
I’m pretty sure that aspect of it is the meme. That on Talk Tuah she discusses topics she is wildly under qualified for.
“On this episode of Talk Tuah, Hawk Tuah discusses particle physics, Byzantine economics…” etc.
There is the possibility that she/staged the video. What better way to launch a talented career. It’s a different type of marketing.
Bro if she staged a viral success I’m even more impressed
Sure, but who would have thought it would blow up. She was just drunk and spouting shit, and I reckon the next day didn’t even remember saying anything
Anon discovers that life often isn’t all that fair…
Being smart and hardworking can bolster your odds, but your lot in life really boils down to how lucky you are, and how well equipped you are to capitalise on that luck.
Unfortunately the right combination of extreme luckiness and ability to capitalise on it doesn’t come up all that often, so most people simply won’t ever get that lucky break.
life isn’t fair, but this isn’t life. it’s the system put in place by people. chalking it up to life not being fair is complicity.
life isn’t fair that someone may be born with a lifelong disease, or they may get one later. can’t do anything about that. economic fairness is something we can change.
BTW I never understood why she became popular, it wasn’t that interesting or funny… but I have nothing against her capitalizing on an opportunity. she was suddenly put in the spotlight but she hasn’t grifted her way there. doesn’t hurt anyone. good for her. my comment isn’t about her but meritocracy in general.
The economic system is as big apart of my life as the chronic medical issues I was born with. Don’t know how your life functions without regards to the economy. It has been easier to get medical intervention on my medical issues, than to get society to make the economy fair. Human behavior is part of life, these abstract systems we create are a direct result of that.
I’m gonna be honest I don’t know what you’re even trying to say, let alone how it relates to my point. I’m talking about “life isn’t fair” usually being a thought terminating cliché and a poor replacement for questioning causes of unfairness. saying “life isn’t fair” in response to any criticism of the system is no more helpful than saying “it is what it is”, which is the quintessential thought terminating cliché.
my point is life isn’t fair could be accurate regarding chronic illness for example, but it isn’t enough to explain the economic burden it brings on you. we might not have the means to prevent a chronic illness, but whatever medical intervention it requires should not be an economic problem for the person. healthcare must—and can—be free.
I don’t think the two of you actually disagree, I think you’re just using the term ‘life’ differently. You’re making the point that there are parts of life that are manmade and subject to change, like the economy which can and should be changed to help people. Meanwhile they used the phrase ‘life isn’t fair’ in what they’re saying is a descriptive rather than a prescriptive sense. They don’t think of it as a thought terminating cliche and they don’t oppose reform, they just see it as an accurate and realistic outlook for the time being.
of course extreme luck can be replaced by inherited wealth and daddies’ connections and suddenly we are looking at a super star who would under average room temperature conditions would only make it to local news
Being born into riches is extreme luck.
Or did most of us choose to live on hard difficulty?
(well most of us are probably on medium difficulty, do to the fact that we can post here)
fair enough…
Well apparently 51% of you don’t agree that anything is wrong…
Explain this to me. Do you mean that 51% doesn’t include a large share of the 79% of Americans who say the country is on the wrong track? Has been for, oh, the last four years? Perhaps if the 49% had got their way instead it would have abolished capitalism and absurd celebrities somehow? As opposed to reinforcing the status quo?
more than 4 years, bud
Also true
Pretty based take for a reactionary shithole
People on /pol/ quite often post views which are actually leftist, but they hate brown people so much that they can’t bring themselves to abandon the far-right.
There’s nothing to abandon the alt right for. If the democrats decided to run on a platform that was even remotely progressive, do literally anything for worker’s rights, they’d win a lot of disenfranchised voters. Obama won, and that’s not because all of a sudden, just for a moment, America wasn’t racist. No, it was because he promised to solve one of the problems that’s killing Americans in every stratum: healthcare. Instead, we get fracker and border wall builder Harris.
I mean I’m jealous too
Its called the entrepreneurial spirit. Maybe don’t slave your life away and try to do something about it.
It’s called being exceedingly lucky, she tells you that so don’t spread bootstrap bullshit.
Of course luck plays a factor and you miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. Dont put words of bootstrap BS in my mouth when i never said it. I said entrepreneurial spirit. As in she took her lucky hand and did something with it.
That’s bootstrap bullshit dude, you’d have a point if you didn’t outright say anyone who isn’t rich isn’t trying.
If you want to call that bootstrap BS, it stops being BS when you literally see it working here. I never said anyone who isnt rich, isnt trying. There’s plenty of rich people that aren’t entrepreneurs. But you go ahead and live in your own made up echo chamber while the rest of us live in the real world. Real world results speak for themselves.
Missed the point huh?
Yeah life is a joke and 99% of us are the punchline.
🔥🔥🔥
She didn’t become a millionaire afaik.
She has a podcast that’s slightly popular and was already well off.
Anon might stop feeling so jealous if they perhaps stopped making up random facts, or believing lies on the internet?
Not a millionaire overnight, but she did get a huge bump in wealth. She was getting tens of thousands for some appearances fees.
Good for her.
Definitely. Imagine just being out on the town with your friends, answer a silly question, and BAM now you’re know world wide for oral sex. The amount of creepy dudes she has to deal with must be off the charts.
For those who don’t know the podcast is called Talk Tuah.
Anon develops class consciousness?
4chan is the wrong forum for that
I’m well aware, the tone was meant to be somewhat sarcastic
Not really, I’m sure they think this is the fault of women or woke liberals
I mean, they specifically say the market, but you’re probably right
Nah it’s a bait post
Fake and gay you say?
What on 4Chan? Ridiculous!
I don’t know who she is. What am I doing right?
She talked about a blow job in a funny way and it became a meme, then she jumped to capitalize on the popularity
IIRC she got fired from school (?) when it became viral.
She wasn’t a teacher, or working for a school. She was working for some factory in Tenn. and quit, which she was already preparing to do, when she did that interview. These rumors are just fiction.
Everything I needed to know about school, I learned the first time I saw they would fire women over this stuff.
Jump tuah, capitalize on that thang!
Envious* and me fucking too.
Uh, yeah, there’s apparently people ready to spend dollars on services (ads, personalities)
Damn, a person made a bunch of money by saying something amusing on camera? That’s crazy bro. Probably the first time that’s ever happened.
Damn, [an attractive] person made a bunch of money by saying something amusing on camera? That’s crazy bro. Probably the first time that’s ever happened.
Nah, plenty of ugly actors and comedians
How many ugly actors and comedians got their start through someone else’s tik tok interview of them on the street outside a bar?
