I thought deinfluencing would be like…educating people on how to make their own choices and think for themselves, but I guess that was too optimistic of me
3:41 OMG YESSS. I remember when I was talking with my friend at school, normally she’s very nice and she still is but something she said rubbed me the wrong way. She said that £40 was not a lot of money, and I was like so would you give £40 to a random person? And she was like yeah. And I told her that’s because she’s probably rich and she started going in a rant about how she was not rich at all, but her dad’s rich! Okay, but since you live under his roof and he supports you, you’re rich.
I totally agree about Mr. Beast. Something is so off about him. Idk, he doesn't seem genuine but he knows how to present it that way. But honestly as long as he actually does good and isn't secretly doing bad stuff it's fine
I haven't gotten to that part but I was reading the comments and for me it's the "doing genuinely good things but always publishing and monetizing it" like something about actually making public about the "good things someone does" just makes it not seem genuine at all... and to make that a career, basically 😬 it screams of "kids and immature people is my true intended audience" (and me, personally, I don't feel comfy supporting someone like that) (also, isn't he from a southern state....🤔 like that just speaks for itself honestly)
Like Flonny said, he always broadcasts his "good deeds" which makes him a lot of money, more than he spent and also there is a thing called charitable tax deduction. He could use that assets for more net positive outcome like advocating for public heathcare
Yeah, if he wanted, he could send all the money from his “good deeds” videos straight to the nonprofit he founded. That would guarantee it gets used for actual charity. He could even pay himself a reasonable salary as head of the nonprofit. But he doesn’t do that. Instead, it’s all income to him, and he gets to be rich because of it. The good deeds are just a business expense for him.
Saaame, not like the acts themselves he does in his videos are bad, it's good that people get the help they need. But it's the motivation behind it that is so iffy to me. Like giving money to streamers and randoms could get old and he decided to mix it up with the people in need to make even more bank. And it's not like publicizing it will inspire others when his whole brand is being extravagant with money and not at all relatable in that way. Like no one thinks if he can do this I can too. Reminds me of the old "giving money to homeless people on the street" videos but repackaged.
I know that a lot of ppl criticized his video content, but to me personally, I really dislike his business practices that are very... how do I say this... exploitative, I guess.
this happens in my country as well (I'm from South America), and like you I failed to see it at first because I come from a lower income family and have always been told to look good and dress well even with the small resources we have. So when I came to college in a different city and struggled to get by and ate a meal a day basically and was called rich by people who dressed with what appeared to be less quality clothing (which spoiler alert they weren't) and who complained about having no money to go to the movies or eat or whatever, I felt really bad for them. And then one day one of those people casually mentioned they were going to spend the summer in Europe and the illusion was shattered, I looked around and saw that most people dressed like that so they wouldn't be called rich and people wouldn't judge them for having been privileged all their lives, people who used to judged me for occasionally using uber instead of public transportation actually had cars gifted to them, people who claimed they had no money to go to the movies would go to expensive pubs, and now after college they all have been traveling when I'm struggling to make ends meat. So yeah, this happens in most places, I think, and it sucks.
This is so crazy to me cause we could never in my country. I'm from Nigeria, and rich people here don't care to hide their wealth at alll! Like they may not wear bling bling stuff, but when you see them you'll always know immediately from their style so you could never really mistake them and they never try to hide it, even though they may not go the extra mile to put it in your face. They prioritize their comfort over your opinion. So this is so weird lol
oh my godddd rich people who say they're "broke" is one of my all-time pet peeves. I went to university with so many rich kids and had a similar experience to you. Especially when they do it in an ostentatious way specifically to their poor friends, as if they're saying "uwu look how responsible I'm being, I know what it's like to struggle too!" when I clearly knew they were living in nice apartments, buying expensive clothes and Starbucks and concert tickets all the time and going on holiday abroad, while I was sharing a tiny house with 6 people, struggling to afford basic groceries and wearing the same clothes I'd had since highschool. It always reminded me of this song from the 90s - 'Common People' by Pulp. I was so tempted to stick that on at a party sometime and see if anyone noticed... Re. online people, pretty much the only comedy channel I'm watching right now is Drawfee and I definitely recommend it! The humour isn't exactly family-friendly but it's never mean or prejudiced and the hosts seem like actually nice people. It's more just surreal and light-hearted and you get to watch talented artists draw some very strange things!
I just... I just unlocked a memory I'd forgotten for years. There was this one girl I genuinely thought was poor because every day she wore the same destroyed old jumpers full of holes, faded hoodies, beat-up old boots...... and then one day I saw her wearing these torn-up paint-splattered jeans (this was art school so that wasn't uncommon) and something suddenly clicked. I realised I'd seen those EXACT paint-splatters on a pair of designer jeans online costing like £500. Blew my mind. The whole thing was a goddamn poverty costume and it actually fooled me!!!
@@isa-belva HELLO!!! Seriously though it kind of makes sense there's a crossover somehow? Fine arts, sass (Karina), being funny but also caring about things... it's a vibe!
i never comment because i'm shy lmao, but you always have the best takes about everything you talk about! deinfluencing and antihauls will never work when it's still capitalising off audiences' insecurities. what you /should/ be buying to fit in becomes what you /shouldn't/ be buying to fit in lmao. i barely noticed the deinfluencing trend because it looked like business as usual to me. also, love the computer screen frame, the vibes are immaculate as always!!
Yeah it seems like that’s the framing for many ppl! There are some ppl I’ve seen make these types of videos that were different but it’s rare! And thank you🥰 I’m glad you liked it hehe
I really like Karolina Żebrowska, she mainly makes content about historical fashion. I don't know if you are interested in this kind of content since you make videos mostly about things related pop culture, but if you are, definetely check her out. She has specific type of humour not everybody likes, but if you do you do :D
I also think it should be normalized to collect things over a long timespan, like yeah I have a massive wardrobe and book collection but it took me years to collect that and there are pieces that belonged to my parents, grandparents or friends first and same thing with my books
Hahaha, I love your honesty! The whole influencing (and fake deinfluencing) thing is very frustrating. And I get you about the problem with potential collaborators for content creators - I get a lot of drop shipping companies try to get me to do free videos for them with clothes that will trend maybe for one month max and aren't practical/flattering/good quality. It's exhausting 🥱 And the beauty industry....will probably always be a mess🤷🏼♀
soooooooooo many drop shipment companies, so many sh*tty companies in my email inbox, it's INSANE like no normal businesses, bc even big businesses are scams recently ahah
@@LisaFevral and big companies refuse to pay you anything (unless you have a lot of subscribers) and take all the rights to the videos 😭 I tried working with a couple brands but I got very fed up with how much I was taken advantage of for like 5 pieces of clothing
I think you’d Kenny J. D. on RUclips! If you don’t watch her already. She’s hilarious. She puts her makeup on while reviewing bad movies, but I think your sense of humor might be similar!
I like Li Speaks she talks about computer games that were popular between kids and teens some years ago, it is really cool even though I didn't play video games as much as a kid. I don't use makeup but I like to watch Judy because her videos are pretty and her serie showing the empty products that she used over the year is satisfying. And I recently found Teresa's Chaotic Corner where she talks about aesthetics that are popular right now like whimsigoth and twee girl
A channel I've been loving recently is Uncarley. She mostly talks about books and I'm not even that into books (I mean I am in theory, just not in practice lol) but I find so much comfort in her dry humor and chill vibe.
Yes I suddenly became broke I mean nothing..im not gonna buy coffee anymore bcuz it is an unnecessary expense at this point even making it at home. .. And my fried who I know is beyond loaded with family money says they r broke just cuz they r a student. Just cuz u r a student, doesn't mean u r broke!!! U r given pocket money to pay for everything!!!
Seriously ! Working during college was exhausting and I could have gotten so much more out of the expensive education if I didn’t have to work 32 hours a week on top of like 27+ hours of class a week . I went to art school and there was an interesting dynamic between the actual poor students and students pretending to be poor because it was more “on brand “ for their art or reputation 😅
omg literally same!!! everyone in my school were acting poor, using resources that are not for them, trying to get points for coming from a difficult background, and then you come to find out they have rich parents and they grew up in NY or LA loaded omfg
I think rich people in general are all detached from reality in some level. Many of them don't understand that their life style is not common or just don't want to see for some reason
I know that not all influencers are the same but MANY of them are extremely out of touch with reality They don’t see it as a big deal because is their current reality but being able to afford food and a roof by creating content and even getting a load bunch of free stuff all the time seems like a pretty sweet deal
Honestly for me I would love to make enough for the living basics, and they can keep the free stuff bc 99% of it is drop shipment companies with terrible products haha
I’m from Germany and a lot of kids I got to know also say they are so broke or whatever but they just have a really warped perception of money. For them being broke means having a full fridge all the time and electricity and for trendy clothes and big apartments / houses BUT they can’t go to the cinema cause they ran out of pocket money and they would’ve to ask their parents. They don’t even consider the whole first part I mentioned cause for them that’s normal
I feel like middle class people saying they’re broke genuinely believe it because they just don’t count their savings and realize it as a legitimate privilege, even if they’re not as privileged as upper class people. It’s not like I’m judging anyone for having savings since it’s there for security, I have it too. But if I have the ability to afford food and bills and still have left over money for myself, then I wouldn’t say I’m not buying something I’m just not willing to pay for because “I’m broke”. Feels like something people say because they think it’s quirky to “struggle”.
yeah that's the thing, the fact that they have savings is really good, and I'm happy for them, but acting like they are broke and taking advantage(maybe sometimes unknowingly) is what annoys me haha
Omg about the aquarius problem I had friends like that!!! I remember a scholarship they didn't tell me about. And guess how they spent that money. They used it to redecorate their bedroom, both of them. Meanwhile when I finally discovered it existed I saved it to fo to college
I genuinely thought they were broke and then they went to like 300 countries to tan in the summer and turned out they have their parents paying for everything so I was like... WAIT a minute
I don't like most online celebrities too, can't we just forget about Jeffree and Shane for good? D: But I want to recommend Izzzyzzz, I love her deep dives and that she mostly presents facts, but when she voices her opinion it's respectful and nice in general, also her looks are fire
A lot of great creators mentioned , y’all might love kurtis Connor as well for some great humor from a dude that gives me some hope in the dude side of humanity . And for more fashion related and sociological commentary, Mina le is amazing , super well researched and informative videos Edit : edavasion is also so funny and calm at the same time I love him
These days we need more people reminding people online that: - Clout is worthless for 95% of the population - Things are meant to last, not to be thrown out when the trend is over - You should only buy clothes/makeup you see online if you are, in fact, leaving your house on a regular basis AND have nothing remotely like it already, and those should fit the occasion you're going out for
Ro Ramdins hilarious although her vids are about serious topics usually. Mia Coles rlly fun too. I like Xiran Jay Zhao a lot their vids are about chinese history usually. Maybe Yhara Zayd?? She reviews films. Idk I hope that was something
See I love your videos and you because you're genuine, versus loads of influencers who just give off fake vibes! I think you bring very valid points to light and I value you for doing that, so 💖💖
I will say I am broke when I only have 2 euros for food that week for me and my cat, that's how broke I need to be to say I am broke. I am from Eastern Europe . It's totally an anglophone thing.
omg I think its so funny that this video exists, I've been seeing this word more and more.... people have been telling people to "get things" and "not get things" since forever.... this is just a gimmick :sob: like even telling someone "you dont need this/do you really need this" is the same thing.... youre influencing someone NOT to get something... lmao... there is no differenceeed Like you can tell people to "spend consciously" and always consider if they really need something PERIOD ... but making it a buzzword is just a cashgrab
I think the first few people were just talking about them trying to fix their spending habits, but then the rest came along and they're not that at all
I saw her post yesterday after I finished editing and I was like omg I should’ve made this video when I first thought of it cuz now it’s too late ahahag
Hmm for a couple recommendations, Ziwe comes to mind automatically, maybe you’ve already heard of her but she is just so iconic. and im sure you know of trixie mattel but she’s just so utterly fun to watch, along with bob & monet, drag queens really are super entertaining. Not an influencer, but I also think you’d really enjoy harley quinn on hbo if you haven’t seen it yet.
omg I was going insane seeing these videos on my fyp, also I am most certain that most of them are just ads in the form of the deinfluencing trend like everything on the app is
Ryan George (quite specific, but gold comedy, also kinda deep), Man Carrying Thing (movies/culture centred comedy, but also book reviews) and AVNJ (a channel about fish, you can actually learn a lot) are my top 3 funny/lighthearted/genuinely good channels that I watch every week! They remind me every time that there is a good side of this platform :’)) highly recommend all 3 :))))
Yes I'm unemployed and disabled and I was recently covering for a friend, then i found out her parents live in a MANSION and gave her 10k for christmas like...... ...........
Not sure about funny, but I've been enjoying mina le, moderngurlz and notsoblond lately. Also cinema cartography and little while lies do interesting vids on cinema.
Some fun youtubers for me that I think you might like idk: Naomi Jon - Micarah Tewers - (if you like movie breakdown channels, bad movies in particular, she is hilarious) Kenniejd - Karolina Zebrowska (you can find historical fashion related content on her channel but she is actually entertaining)
I'm not a og subscriber but I've noticed that within the last year-ish you've thrown your censor out the window and I love that sm for you, the video that you talked abt the swarovski crystals in I was like,, new Lisa era???? I've been bored as hell too but tee noir, verilybitchie, and shanspeare's videos make me cackle unexpectedly and I highly recommend. they're commentary videos though so I don't know if that's the content you're looking for. other recs are mina le, princess weekes, takeshi takeshi (he makes yakuza cooking videos and it's entertaining as hell) domai and honobread are animated storytime channels that are fun too. domai especially has a really cool animation style and the older videos have fun community captions. yea but idk I've been so bored I've started reading again lmfao
Ouh I like the litteral framing of this video! We stan Sam (tho I prefer Clover for her VA because she's the voice of SO MANY childhood characters) I have a term for this constant reinventing of the wheel and making new names for the same concept but each time they make less and less sense : devolution. One good news tho, in France people got so fed up with influencer scams and BS there are actual laws debated about regulating that.
@@LisaFevral I think she's the main character more often than not! Oh that is a good thing to read! Then again what difference does it make in the us lol
idk the js jawbreaker pallete is the perfect rainbow pallete i use it till this day when i need a random rainbow color or glitter its chill, but u got lots of points i only have a little bag of daily makeup now and another small bag for weekends/going out makeup since i live in a big city in the US, what I dont get are the beauty babes who would buy pounds of makeup living in the middle of arkansas. where tf u going with that holo glitter lid tonight janice looollllll. I peep the glossier bags in the background girl i feel u. we need more like that
I think influencers are navigating a very gray and stinky area were reviewing and comparing/ giving a negative or positive review is left to their own morals. As a retail worker, you can brag about the proven qualities of your product or the customer reviews you collected, but you CAN’T say anything about how good or bad another brand or concurrence product is, you can be sued for this with the motive of difamation. Even if you think you are saying the truth about a product or a brand, as long as you don’t have legal and verified facts to prove you are right, you cant say anything about anythingµ. It’s tricky because influencers are talking both as a brand and as a person, and, as a brand that is in position to promote product, it would be technically illegal to talk smack about another brand to promote their own affiliate better. I don’t work in law but it feels very blurry and untrustworthy to « desinfluence » as some people are doing.😊
I think the og purpose of those videos was good and didn't touch on that at all, since it was more about addressing overconsumption and impulse buying, but after the initial videos they became this grey area reviewing
I’m running out the house so I don’t have time to explain just how much you read my mind in this video. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️❤️❤️ keep on going and be freeee
But sometimes you do over pay. And big companies... they are not ethical. For instance I would rather pay David James Armsby rather than big streaming platforms like Adult Swim or Netflix who abuse their actors, animators and copyright law. If you can have a tailor make you a dress like the one you saw from Dior why not use it. But if promote smth as unethical as SheIn then I am done. Because sometimes who pays cheap pays twice. You risk your health coz they use toxic paint and what not. And the very fact that they don't do refunds is yet another alarming sign. You risk getting a clothing that tears apart after a few times you wear it. I hope such practice will not become a rule.
I'm also on the hunt for new chill, funny youtubers, but have been watching a lot of yhara zayd, antiheroines, and iCharly lately edit: just found Nicole Rafiee and her channel is great
I feel like I want some funny content but from people I like, and I think ensemble videos are the most likely to give us that, except ppl that I like on yt are all over the place, so they wouldn't be able to film together in the same room aha
In India, there are many male content creators who are…unique. One of them (not naming for plausible deniability) think he is the shizz and some sort of intellectual authority while espousing gender essentialism, religious undertones and is just blah. I’m regretting being honest now but I thought you needed the 411.
it's bold for influencers to assume that when viewers like me watch a Dyson reviews we actually have money to afford it 🙃 in terms of really funny channels I'd recommend Dingo Doodles - a girl makes animated stories about her dnd adventures, her main series is soo interesting and witty in terms of plot and characters and also Drawfee - 4 artists just draw random funny shit every time, from disney princesses as dark souls bosses to inventing new pokemons, and that are not the wildest examples 😂
Mr.beast is like the mark of the beast. Normalizing things for young kids that are demonic at this point. Thinking it’s the coolest to get chipped because you can make more money, without thinking of the consequences of being tracked, controlled and part robotic aka mark of the beast
thank you😭 I used to watch her, but I think we have very opposing views on fiscal politics since I am not on the right in any matters. Questions of class are really important to me so I kinda just stopped watching her over time
its kinda weird when rich ppl will charge u for sipping on their latte when people who have actually struggled with poverty/being broke will help pay for your meal if you need it no questions asked
4:46 Coffee is actually a good example. It is a light drug that has negative impact on your health. Especially if you use suggar to sweeten it (xylitol and stevia are better options). Besides it involves a lot of exploitation like child labour etc.. it happened even on Fair Trade farms. And we could be using that area to idk build solar pannels or grow food or plant trees
From the US South here, most of my friends tend to be honest with their funds. A couple of my friends I know are actually paycheck to paycheck, so I cover them for fun stuff when I can. Others I think say they’re “broke” to be relatable instead of actually being honest. It irks me a lot, too.
OH MY FINALLY SOMEOE SAID IT! HOW THE HELL DID EVERYONE MAKE THOSE HUMAN FECES SPECIMENS LIKE J STAR (AMONG OTHERS) ACTUAL SUPERSTARS!! NOW HE IS A CONSERVATIVE, JUST BECAUSE IT'S THE NEW GRIFT! MILLION LIKES FOR THIS VIDEO
Girl I agree it’s so dry now to the point that I have been watching a couple who does content on cruises/theme parks/vacations. because at least they are actually are having a good time. so much content has been blah lately.
yeah that's the thing, I feel like I mostly watch commentary and I'm feeling like even when I'm trying to watch something fun I'm still watching things that low-key piss me off, it's kinda like being on twitter ahah
The trend and integrity of influencers basically got reset to 2012 when TikTok got popular because of how distant some influencers and their audiences now are from og RUclipsrs who set the tone for "how to influence" (or more likely how TO NOT do it). Not that yt is some perfect space or anything. So a bunch of stuff is getting repeated bc some ppl don't know we've "already dealt with this" as a society.
@@LisaFevral I mean I get it mostly because the beauty community sort of shit itself right before the pandemic and the rise of TikTok. So there was sort of a year or two that broke up the internet tea continuity. So ppl just getting into social media I'm sure went straight to TikTok and never knew about any of this. God...I need Jeffree to just stay away tho.
idk if u still read comments this late after a vid but i’ve stumbled across you in the last couple days along with so many amazing queer friendly, INTELLIGENT, funny people online. i’ve just weirdly got an influx of amazing people and there’s so much content at my finger tips. it feels like 2010s youtube again. but Better ! these are 50k-600k girlies. (honourable mention to brittany broski but she’s relatively mainstream rn tho i Adore her, this comment ain’t for her) and i watch some relatively “newer” male youtubers but idc about them it’s time for the gays and gals. sarah schauer, nb lesbian. lego. comedy. so fucking witty. started on vine. tiktok/IG skits and youtube. loves focusing on self improvement / sober living / learning new things. ive watched her for a few years now so i’m biased lmao. but here’s people i’ve found within the last 6 months ~ with 4 i’ve found literally days ago (including u :0) ro ramdin. nb trans woman. INCREDIBLE revolutionary take on video essays. literally any and Every vid of hers is just an absolute slice of perfection. even if u think it wouldn’t interest u, the video ends up being incredible. genuinely one of the wittiest people i’ve seen on youtube. have watched her vids since she started but she needs more hype for sure nicole rafiee. the random pieces of internet lore she mentions always cracks me up. hard hitting topics like ageism in beauty industry, young women being preyed on. micro trends etc. shanspeare. the fashion!!! the hair!!! the make up!!! the sets!! the editing!! the b roll!!! oh my god it really feels like i’m finding creators who just say “fuck it im gonna post what i want and i’m gonna wear a dress made of poloroid photos of myself while i do it and have a hard hitting, INCREDIBLY well researched video by the end” and i find that STUNNING. amanda the jedi. such an extensive, well thought out critique / review / commentary on media. she pumps out so many videos but i promise if u weed through the weekly update stuff it’s just brimming with content. she often touches on problematic content and topics in media while making fun of the people who write and consume the content. the shit she endures for videos oh my god jaime french. just go. immediately. start watching. she gives me the same fuzzy cozy feelings that jenna marbles used to give me. she picks up on such funny fucken things and her editing is AMAZING and she sings????!!! rowan ellis. literally that’s how many amazing channels i’ve suddenly been getting recently. i actually only ended up watching one video; subscribed and then another channel was waiting for me. just from her most recent video alone; i am HOOKED. such incredible points. gabi belle. funny. internet culture. memes. chill time. like tell me why me learning how spotifys shuffling algorithm works was entertaining as fuck??
3:11 Rich people romanticising a vague idea of poverty? It’s so cute to see it. You just became less rich, not more poor. Also, it’s insulting to actual poor people. P.S. Indian Celebrities do a lot of that (with exceptions of course).
I would LOVE for you to do a react/commentary on Unicorn of War's Winx videos. Even if you're mostly agreeing, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Especially when it comes to his rewrites.
I'm in the U.S. and it really is a common issue where girls and guys claim they are broke then next thing you know you meet their family and their middle class to wealthy. I had a former friend who was a master snake and we would go to the mall and she would be like I'm hungry and I'm like go get some food then.She would play the victim and I felt embarrassed for her and would cave in. I finally set a boundary and I'm like look you have a job cheaper rent and parents who care quit asking me for food and money. No joke we didn't hang out after. And for the Jeffrey star point he needs to be canceled for good. He keeps snaking bad into the beauty world and I was like noooo. They use other people's pain and struggles and sneaks back because we're more focused on their lies than his. He literally wrote the script for shady influencer. He is the kind of guy to say I'm broke and you pay for his food then make a video on how selfish you are and how you should be canceled. I do not like people who profit from other people's shame and hardships.
I remember I found your channel when I was having some health issues and I watched too many of them [no shame]. I like how you are unique in this "mass trending" society. Why they all wanna look the same? I'll never understand that. I do tiktoks bout my opinions on different subjects [mostly in my native language: spanish] and it makes me happy how much people relate to my content BUT I'm certain I'm not the *influencer* type cause, just like you, I don't like any big popular one [i follow none]~ they're boring to me, their fake voice tones, the everything is perfect speech, the ridiculous amount of product they use, their lack of communication with followers... there's so much I do not support. I don't hate them, they're irrelevant to me. Anyway, I think defluencing exists but sadly isn't a "mass trend" yet cause it's mostly promoted by smaller channels. And, I DREAM brands would start to see us, regular people with a decent following, as faces for their products. I trust NOTHING said by someone with 1m [or way more] followers cause it's usually paid lies praising something. I'm hoping social media goes back to the roots of sharing actual human being experiences instead of the "perfect setting, perfect light, perfect character" online~

Was in a relay yesterday... nearly bought the March issue of French vogue cuz it's iconic and I wouldn't get another chance. Then I realized I was literally just paying for advertisements and put it back... Do I regret it? I don't know.

And it's not like publicizing it will inspire others when his whole brand is being extravagant with money and not at all relatable in that way. Like no one thinks if he can do this I can too. Reminds me of the old "giving money to homeless people on the street" videos but repackaged.
I know that a lot of ppl criticized his video content, but to me personally, I really dislike his business practices that are very... how do I say this... exploitative, I guess.
this happens in my country as well (I'm from South America), and like you I failed to see it at first because I come from a lower income family and have always been told to look good and dress well even with the small resources we have. So when I came to college in a different city and struggled to get by and ate a meal a day basically and was called rich by people who dressed with what appeared to be less quality clothing (which spoiler alert they weren't) and who complained about having no money to go to the movies or eat or whatever, I felt really bad for them. And then one day one of those people casually mentioned they were going to spend the summer in Europe and the illusion was shattered, I looked around and saw that most people dressed like that so they wouldn't be called rich and people wouldn't judge them for having been privileged all their lives, people who used to judged me for occasionally using uber instead of public transportation actually had cars gifted to them, people who claimed they had no money to go to the movies would go to expensive pubs, and now after college they all have been traveling when I'm struggling to make ends meat. So yeah, this happens in most places, I think, and it sucks.
like what is up with that???? that makes me sooooo angry
Rich people love to cosplay as poor
This is so crazy to me cause we could never in my country. I'm from Nigeria, and rich people here don't care to hide their wealth at alll! Like they may not wear bling bling stuff, but when you see them you'll always know immediately from their style so you could never really mistake them and they never try to hide it, even though they may not go the extra mile to put it in your face. They prioritize their comfort over your opinion. So this is so weird lol
oh my godddd rich people who say they're "broke" is one of my all-time pet peeves. I went to university with so many rich kids and had a similar experience to you. Especially when they do it in an ostentatious way specifically to their poor friends, as if they're saying "uwu look how responsible I'm being, I know what it's like to struggle too!" when I clearly knew they were living in nice apartments, buying expensive clothes and Starbucks and concert tickets all the time and going on holiday abroad, while I was sharing a tiny house with 6 people, struggling to afford basic groceries and wearing the same clothes I'd had since highschool. It always reminded me of this song from the 90s - 'Common People' by Pulp. I was so tempted to stick that on at a party sometime and see if anyone noticed...
Re. online people, pretty much the only comedy channel I'm watching right now is Drawfee and I definitely recommend it! The humour isn't exactly family-friendly but it's never mean or prejudiced and the hosts seem like actually nice people. It's more just surreal and light-hearted and you get to watch talented artists draw some very strange things!
I just... I just unlocked a memory I'd forgotten for years. There was this one girl I genuinely thought was poor because every day she wore the same destroyed old jumpers full of holes, faded hoodies, beat-up old boots...... and then one day I saw her wearing these torn-up paint-splattered jeans (this was art school so that wasn't uncommon) and something suddenly clicked. I realised I'd seen those EXACT paint-splatters on a pair of designer jeans online costing like £500. Blew my mind. The whole thing was a goddamn poverty costume and it actually fooled me!!!
FELLOW DRAWFEE AND LISA FEVRAL ENJOYER?? HELLO????
@@isa-belva HELLO!!! Seriously though it kind of makes sense there's a crossover somehow? Fine arts, sass (Karina), being funny but also caring about things... it's a vibe!
igot a lot of suggestions to check out Drawfee so I'll check them out!
same I literally found out that almost everyone I went to school with in uni were all playing poor
i never comment because i'm shy lmao, but you always have the best takes about everything you talk about! deinfluencing and antihauls will never work when it's still capitalising off audiences' insecurities. what you /should/ be buying to fit in becomes what you /shouldn't/ be buying to fit in lmao. i barely noticed the deinfluencing trend because it looked like business as usual to me.
also, love the computer screen frame, the vibes are immaculate as always!!
Yeah it seems like that’s the framing for many ppl! There are some ppl I’ve seen make these types of videos that were different but it’s rare! And thank you🥰 I’m glad you liked it hehe
I really like Karolina Żebrowska, she mainly makes content about historical fashion. I don't know if you are interested in this kind of content since you make videos mostly about things related pop culture, but if you are, definetely check her out. She has specific type of humour not everybody likes, but if you do you do :D
ok but you are the cool person online I recommend to people when they wanna watch new channels ✊🏻✊🏻
Omg🥹 thank you🤍
I also think it should be normalized to collect things over a long timespan, like yeah I have a massive wardrobe and book collection but it took me years to collect that and there are pieces that belonged to my parents, grandparents or friends first and same thing with my books
Khadija Mbowe makes amazing commentary videos and they're also really funny imo :)
Corrine Huhnke has amazing fashion content imo too ofc lol
I know Khadija, but I’ll check Corrine out!!
Hahaha, I love your honesty! The whole influencing (and fake deinfluencing) thing is very frustrating. And I get you about the problem with potential collaborators for content creators - I get a lot of drop shipping companies try to get me to do free videos for them with clothes that will trend maybe for one month max and aren't practical/flattering/good quality. It's exhausting 🥱 And the beauty industry....will probably always be a mess🤷🏼♀
soooooooooo many drop shipment companies, so many sh*tty companies in my email inbox, it's INSANE
like no normal businesses, bc even big businesses are scams recently ahah
@@LisaFevral and big companies refuse to pay you anything (unless you have a lot of subscribers) and take all the rights to the videos 😭 I tried working with a couple brands but I got very fed up with how much I was taken advantage of for like 5 pieces of clothing
Li Speaks is a great channel that's all about internet websites made for the girlies back then💅✨
I should check them out hehe
oh my god yes. amazing
I think you’d Kenny J. D. on RUclips! If you don’t watch her already. She’s hilarious. She puts her makeup on while reviewing bad movies, but I think your sense of humor might be similar!
I love Kenny!
I like Li Speaks she talks about computer games that were popular between kids and teens some years ago, it is really cool even though I didn't play video games as much as a kid. I don't use makeup but I like to watch Judy because her videos are pretty and her serie showing the empty products that she used over the year is satisfying. And I recently found Teresa's Chaotic Corner where she talks about aesthetics that are popular right now like whimsigoth and twee girl
I love her vids so much!
A channel I've been loving recently is Uncarley. She mostly talks about books and I'm not even that into books (I mean I am in theory, just not in practice lol) but I find so much comfort in her dry humor and chill vibe.
Omg I love her videos! I wish I could do a vid with her or have her over on the podcast
Yes I suddenly became broke I mean nothing..im not gonna buy coffee anymore bcuz it is an unnecessary expense at this point even making it at home. .. And my fried who I know is beyond loaded with family money says they r broke just cuz they r a student. Just cuz u r a student, doesn't mean u r broke!!! U r given pocket money to pay for everything!!!
Seriously ! Working during college was exhausting and I could have gotten so much more out of the expensive education if I didn’t have to work 32 hours a week on top of like 27+ hours of class a week . I went to art school and there was an interesting dynamic between the actual poor students and students pretending to be poor because it was more “on brand “ for their art or reputation 😅
omg literally same!!! everyone in my school were acting poor, using resources that are not for them, trying to get points for coming from a difficult background, and then you come to find out they have rich parents and they grew up in NY or LA loaded omfg
I think rich people in general are all detached from reality in some level. Many of them don't understand that their life style is not common or just don't want to see for some reason
they could at least stop trying to use resources that are for less fortunate ppl by pretending to be in need:(
I know that not all influencers are the same but MANY of them are extremely out of touch with reality
They don’t see it as a big deal because is their current reality but being able to afford food and a roof by creating content and even getting a load bunch of free stuff all the time seems like a pretty sweet deal
Honestly for me I would love to make enough for the living basics, and they can keep the free stuff bc 99% of it is drop shipment companies with terrible products haha
My love for content creators has been re ignited by booktubers especially Uncarley. Girly has me laughing out loud for real
omg I love uncarley ahah
I love how this just turned into hating on influencers all of a sudden lol
I can't help it ahaha
04:05 THIS!! studying humanities in a public uni in Brasil, I see this all the time: middle/upper middle class people pretending to be poor 🤡
That was my uni years too it was so frustrating🤮 and they still do it now
usually not a huge blackpink or kpop fan but this popped off
Sooo good it’s insane
I’m from Germany and a lot of kids I got to know also say they are so broke or whatever but they just have a really warped perception of money. For them being broke means having a full fridge all the time and electricity and for trendy clothes and big apartments / houses BUT they can’t go to the cinema cause they ran out of pocket money and they would’ve to ask their parents. They don’t even consider the whole first part I mentioned cause for them that’s normal
yeah, that's just so weird to me
I feel like middle class people saying they’re broke genuinely believe it because they just don’t count their savings and realize it as a legitimate privilege, even if they’re not as privileged as upper class people. It’s not like I’m judging anyone for having savings since it’s there for security, I have it too. But if I have the ability to afford food and bills and still have left over money for myself, then I wouldn’t say I’m not buying something I’m just not willing to pay for because “I’m broke”. Feels like something people say because they think it’s quirky to “struggle”.
yeah that's the thing, the fact that they have savings is really good, and I'm happy for them, but acting like they are broke and taking advantage(maybe sometimes unknowingly) is what annoys me haha
I love the way you did your hair. You look so fresh 😊
Oh thank you🥰🥰
ouuuuu okayy the new layout LIKE THATS CUTEEE
I think it’s gonna be cute for the vids where I don’t have to show a bunch of images every two seconds like a presentation hehe
Omg about the aquarius problem I had friends like that!!! I remember a scholarship they didn't tell me about. And guess how they spent that money. They used it to redecorate their bedroom, both of them. Meanwhile when I finally discovered it existed I saved it to fo to college
I genuinely thought they were broke and then they went to like 300 countries to tan in the summer and turned out they have their parents paying for everything so I was like... WAIT a minute
@@LisaFevral what is their concept of broke? Lmao
they can't buy a mansion cash right this second, I guess?? ahah
I don't like most online celebrities too, can't we just forget about Jeffree and Shane for good? D: But I want to recommend Izzzyzzz, I love her deep dives and that she mostly presents facts, but when she voices her opinion it's respectful and nice in general, also her looks are fire
I'll check her out!! and yeah I just can't look at those two anymore
I love izzzyzzzs videos 💞, her makeup is always so fun.
I love Ashley Norton, she makes fun videos about nostalgia stuff and I think she's funny LOL
ok I'll give her vids a go hehe
You're so right about Jeffree star! I can't believe some people want him back like wtf
honestly I think it's a minority of people, they are just SUPER loud
I love the frame and the effect on the video, takes me back to the good old days!
A lot of great creators mentioned , y’all might love kurtis Connor as well for some great humor from a dude that gives me some hope in the dude side of humanity . And for more fashion related and sociological commentary, Mina le is amazing , super well researched and informative videos
Edit : edavasion is also so funny and calm at the same time I love him
I watch Kurtis! Have been since forever hehe
@@LisaFevral yeee , I figure he’s pretty well known , just didn’t see his name in the comments yet
Love your videos too babes ❤
Kuncan Dastner is great too!
We literally share the same brain. I watch Mina Le and Kurtis conner religiously.
I would recommend Juno Birch! She's a british drag queen, she is very funny and wholesome
I’ll check her out🥰
These days we need more people reminding people online that:
- Clout is worthless for 95% of the population
- Things are meant to last, not to be thrown out when the trend is over
- You should only buy clothes/makeup you see online if you are, in fact, leaving your house on a regular basis AND have nothing remotely like it already, and those should fit the occasion you're going out for
wholeheartedly agree i never wanna hear about Shane Dawson or jeffrey star again. let’s get the campaign going girlies !!
You make so many interesting points!
I love your channel so much!!!!
🥰🥰🥰
Ro Ramdins hilarious although her vids are about serious topics usually. Mia Coles rlly fun too. I like Xiran Jay Zhao a lot their vids are about chinese history usually. Maybe Yhara Zayd?? She reviews films. Idk I hope that was something
I watch Ro, Xiran and Yhara but I'll check the other ones out!
See I love your videos and you because you're genuine, versus loads of influencers who just give off fake vibes! I think you bring very valid points to light and I value you for doing that, so 💖💖
Omg thank you🥹🥹
I love how blunt you are ahaha
I will say I am broke when I only have 2 euros for food that week for me and my cat, that's how broke I need to be to say I am broke. I am from Eastern Europe . It's totally an anglophone thing.
this
SAME!! is it an Eastern European thing? like don't say you're broke unless you actually are
omg I think its so funny that this video exists, I've been seeing this word more and more.... people have been telling people to "get things" and "not get things" since forever.... this is just a gimmick :sob:
like even telling someone "you dont need this/do you really need this" is the same thing.... youre influencing someone NOT to get something... lmao... there is no differenceeed
Like you can tell people to "spend consciously" and always consider if they really need something PERIOD ... but making it a buzzword is just a cashgrab
I think the first few people were just talking about them trying to fix their spending habits, but then the rest came along and they're not that at all
I like Rachel maksy she makes cosplaying ,sewing content
I think she's funny she's adorable I don't like cosplaying but she made watch her content
I'll check her out!!
it's interesting watching your video right after Swell Entertainment's one on the topic, cause they're really complementary
I saw her post yesterday after I finished editing and I was like omg I should’ve made this video when I first thought of it cuz now it’s too late ahahag
Hmm for a couple recommendations, Ziwe comes to mind automatically, maybe you’ve already heard of her but she is just so iconic. and im sure you know of trixie mattel but she’s just so utterly fun to watch, along with bob & monet, drag queens really are super entertaining. Not an influencer, but I also think you’d really enjoy harley quinn on hbo if you haven’t seen it yet.
omg I was going insane seeing these videos on my fyp, also I am most certain that most of them are just ads in the form of the deinfluencing trend like everything on the app is
Yeah it kind of became a new ad format almost immediately
@@LisaFevral i wish tiktok would implement some strict ad/partnership rules. Honestly, I'm sick of being manipulated every second.
i'm so here for this rant, you spoke only facts !!!
Ryan George (quite specific, but gold comedy, also kinda deep), Man Carrying Thing (movies/culture centred comedy, but also book reviews) and AVNJ (a channel about fish, you can actually learn a lot) are my top 3 funny/lighthearted/genuinely good channels that I watch every week! They remind me every time that there is a good side of this platform :’))
highly recommend all 3 :))))
I love Jenny Nicholson’s excessively long roasts. Something about the way she says things is super entertaining lol
Same😭😭
Okay I wish I was friends with you irl, you seem fun and you're funny 🌸💫🌸
🥹🥹🥹
Yes I'm unemployed and disabled and I was recently covering for a friend, then i found out her parents live in a MANSION and gave her 10k for christmas like...... ...........
maaaan same like I just can't, like what is wrong with them???
I just love ur editing 😭
I love the rant 😍😍😍😍
I was screaming over those Jisoo pics this very morning and I screamed again watching the intro thanks 🤝
Yess thank u I don't get why anyone likes him or thinks he looks good
And why this reminds me so much to the "cero waste things I regret buying, and the alternative
Yeah it’s basically the same thing most of the time
Not sure about funny, but I've been enjoying mina le, moderngurlz and notsoblond lately. Also cinema cartography and little while lies do interesting vids on cinema.
thank you! I'll check them out
i'm losing it over the fart noise on Joffrey Starbucks, that's good content
Some fun youtubers for me that I think you might like idk: Naomi Jon - Micarah Tewers - (if you like movie breakdown channels, bad movies in particular, she is hilarious) Kenniejd - Karolina Zebrowska (you can find historical fashion related content on her channel but she is actually entertaining)
the fact that you're a jisoo girl makes me love you even more omg
I'm not a og subscriber but I've noticed that within the last year-ish you've thrown your censor out the window and I love that sm for you, the video that you talked abt the swarovski crystals in I was like,, new Lisa era????
I've been bored as hell too but tee noir, verilybitchie, and shanspeare's videos make me cackle unexpectedly and I highly recommend. they're commentary videos though so I don't know if that's the content you're looking for. other recs are mina le, princess weekes, takeshi takeshi (he makes yakuza cooking videos and it's entertaining as hell) domai and honobread are animated storytime channels that are fun too. domai especially has a really cool animation style and the older videos have fun community captions. yea but idk I've been so bored I've started reading again lmfao
I watched quite a few of these but I'll check the ones I haven't! and same ahaha
LISA your hairrr I love it!!
thank you😭
If you don't already watch CJ the X, I would highly recommend them.
I think I've seen a vid by them but I can't remember what I thought of it so I should check them out again!
Ouh I like the litteral framing of this video! We stan Sam (tho I prefer Clover for her VA because she's the voice of SO MANY childhood characters)
I have a term for this constant reinventing of the wheel and making new names for the same concept but each time they make less and less sense : devolution.
One good news tho, in France people got so fed up with influencer scams and BS there are actual laws debated about regulating that.
I think I like clover more too!
there are already laws and regulations about that in the us and canada!
@@LisaFevral I think she's the main character more often than not!
Oh that is a good thing to read! Then again what difference does it make in the us lol
idk the js jawbreaker pallete is the perfect rainbow pallete i use it till this day when i need a random rainbow color or glitter its chill, but u got lots of points i only have a little bag of daily makeup now and another small bag for weekends/going out makeup since i live in a big city in the US, what I dont get are the beauty babes who would buy pounds of makeup living in the middle of arkansas. where tf u going with that holo glitter lid tonight janice looollllll. I peep the glossier bags in the background girl i feel u. we need more like that
It’s very hard to understand who has disposable income in this economy.
Everyone loves to act poor to be carried by others while flexing online at the same time, it’s weird
POP OFF ABOUT JEFFREY😭😭🙌
I think influencers are navigating a very gray and stinky area were reviewing and comparing/ giving a negative or positive review is left to their own morals. As a retail worker, you can brag about the proven qualities of your product or the customer reviews you collected, but you CAN’T say anything about how good or bad another brand or concurrence product is, you can be sued for this with the motive of difamation. Even if you think you are saying the truth about a product or a brand, as long as you don’t have legal and verified facts to prove you are right, you cant say anything about anythingµ. It’s tricky because influencers are talking both as a brand and as a person, and, as a brand that is in position to promote product, it would be technically illegal to talk smack about another brand to promote their own affiliate better. I don’t work in law but it feels very blurry and untrustworthy to « desinfluence » as some people are doing.😊
I think the og purpose of those videos was good and didn't touch on that at all, since it was more about addressing overconsumption and impulse buying, but after the initial videos they became this grey area reviewing
I’m running out the house so I don’t have time to explain just how much you read my mind in this video. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤️❤️❤️ keep on going and be freeee
But sometimes you do over pay. And big companies... they are not ethical. For instance I would rather pay David James Armsby rather than big streaming platforms like Adult Swim or Netflix who abuse their actors, animators and copyright law. If you can have a tailor make you a dress like the one you saw from Dior why not use it. But if promote smth as unethical as SheIn then I am done. Because sometimes who pays cheap pays twice. You risk your health coz they use toxic paint and what not. And the very fact that they don't do refunds is yet another alarming sign. You risk getting a clothing that tears apart after a few times you wear it. I hope such practice will not become a rule.
i've been watching a lot of gabi belle recently she's super funny also your hair looks so fucking cute today lisa 🥰
I’ll check her out! And thank you🥰🥰🤍
I'm also on the hunt for new chill, funny youtubers, but have been watching a lot of yhara zayd, antiheroines, and iCharly lately
edit: just found Nicole Rafiee and her channel is great
I love yhara
I feel like I want some funny content but from people I like, and I think ensemble videos are the most likely to give us that, except ppl that I like on yt are all over the place, so they wouldn't be able to film together in the same room aha
In India, there are many male content creators who are…unique. One of them (not naming for plausible deniability) think he is the shizz and some sort of intellectual authority while espousing gender essentialism, religious undertones and is just blah.
I’m regretting being honest now but I thought you needed the 411.
So many of those everywhere it’s horrible😭😭😭
names bro (is it pohak bruhngal)
@@harshehNo, it’s not that person.
it's bold for influencers to assume that when viewers like me watch a Dyson reviews we actually have money to afford it 🙃
in terms of really funny channels I'd recommend Dingo Doodles - a girl makes animated stories about her dnd adventures, her main series is soo interesting and witty in terms of plot and characters
and also Drawfee - 4 artists just draw random funny shit every time, from disney princesses as dark souls bosses to inventing new pokemons, and that are not the wildest examples 😂
ok I'll check them out!!
I’m living for the Total Drama sound byte at the beginning
Mr.beast is like the mark of the beast. Normalizing things for young kids that are demonic at this point. Thinking it’s the coolest to get chipped because you can make more money, without thinking of the consequences of being tracked, controlled and part robotic aka mark of the beast
Kelly stamps is a pretty fun RUclipsr!! + I love your vids
thank you😭 I used to watch her, but I think we have very opposing views on fiscal politics since I am not on the right in any matters. Questions of class are really important to me so I kinda just stopped watching her over time
its kinda weird when rich ppl will charge u for sipping on their latte when people who have actually struggled with poverty/being broke will help pay for your meal if you need it no questions asked
Yeah, the difference is craxy
4:46 Coffee is actually a good example. It is a light drug that has negative impact on your health. Especially if you use suggar to sweeten it (xylitol and stevia are better options). Besides it involves a lot of exploitation like child labour etc.. it happened even on Fair Trade farms. And we could be using that area to idk build solar pannels or grow food or plant trees
From the US South here, most of my friends tend to be honest with their funds. A couple of my friends I know are actually paycheck to paycheck, so I cover them for fun stuff when I can. Others I think say they’re “broke” to be relatable instead of actually being honest. It irks me a lot, too.
Chad chad is really funny.
I love chad chad but she hasn’t been posting much
MikesMic is glorious content. He is so creative and funny
yeah I love mike's stuff, been watching him since he was at like 5k subs ahaha
faline san is amazing film cooper is cool too
OH MY FINALLY SOMEOE SAID IT! HOW THE HELL DID EVERYONE MAKE THOSE HUMAN FECES SPECIMENS LIKE J STAR (AMONG OTHERS) ACTUAL SUPERSTARS!! NOW HE IS A CONSERVATIVE, JUST BECAUSE IT'S THE NEW GRIFT! MILLION LIKES FOR THIS VIDEO
exactly! he knows that only the right wing weirdos will like him now
Girl I agree it’s so dry now to the point that I have been watching a couple who does content on cruises/theme parks/vacations. because at least they are actually are having a good time. so much content has been blah lately.
yeah that's the thing, I feel like I mostly watch commentary and I'm feeling like even when I'm trying to watch something fun I'm still watching things that low-key piss me off, it's kinda like being on twitter ahah
Girl I love you and don't mean to be rude but I would love to see a stylish background for your vids just to add a little ✨spice✨
emergency intercom “”is such a funny slay entertaining podcast :>
The trend and integrity of influencers basically got reset to 2012 when TikTok got popular because of how distant some influencers and their audiences now are from og RUclipsrs who set the tone for "how to influence" (or more likely how TO NOT do it). Not that yt is some perfect space or anything. So a bunch of stuff is getting repeated bc some ppl don't know we've "already dealt with this" as a society.
yeah a lot of ppl on tiktok rn seem to not know about all the things that happened prior on RUclips
@@LisaFevral I mean I get it mostly because the beauty community sort of shit itself right before the pandemic and the rise of TikTok. So there was sort of a year or two that broke up the internet tea continuity. So ppl just getting into social media I'm sure went straight to TikTok and never knew about any of this. God...I need Jeffree to just stay away tho.
Yeah a lot of them are super new, or just aged into wearing makeup, so… and I need him out as well
idk if u still read comments this late after a vid but i’ve stumbled across you in the last couple days along with so many amazing queer friendly, INTELLIGENT, funny people online. i’ve just weirdly got an influx of amazing people and there’s so much content at my finger tips. it feels like 2010s youtube again. but Better
! these are 50k-600k girlies. (honourable mention to brittany broski but she’s relatively mainstream rn tho i Adore her, this comment ain’t for her) and i watch some relatively “newer” male youtubers but idc about them it’s time for the gays and gals.
sarah schauer, nb lesbian. lego. comedy. so fucking witty. started on vine. tiktok/IG skits and youtube. loves focusing on self improvement / sober living / learning new things. ive watched her for a few years now so i’m biased lmao.
but here’s people i’ve found within the last 6 months ~ with 4 i’ve found literally days ago (including u :0)
ro ramdin. nb trans woman. INCREDIBLE revolutionary take on video essays. literally any and Every vid of hers is just an absolute slice of perfection. even if u think it wouldn’t interest u, the video ends up being incredible. genuinely one of the wittiest people i’ve seen on youtube. have watched her vids since she started but she needs more hype for sure
nicole rafiee. the random pieces of internet lore she mentions always cracks me up. hard hitting topics like ageism in beauty industry, young women being preyed on. micro trends etc.
shanspeare. the fashion!!! the hair!!! the make up!!! the sets!! the editing!! the b roll!!! oh my god it really feels like i’m finding creators who just say “fuck it im gonna post what i want and i’m gonna wear a dress made of poloroid photos of myself while i do it and have a hard hitting, INCREDIBLY well researched video by the end” and i find that STUNNING.
amanda the jedi. such an extensive, well thought out critique / review / commentary on media. she pumps out so many videos but i promise if u weed through the weekly update stuff it’s just brimming with content. she often touches on problematic content and topics in media while making fun of the people who write and consume the content. the shit she endures for videos oh my god
jaime french. just go. immediately. start watching. she gives me the same fuzzy cozy feelings that jenna marbles used to give me. she picks up on such funny fucken things and her editing is AMAZING and she sings????!!!
rowan ellis. literally that’s how many amazing channels i’ve suddenly been getting recently. i actually only ended up watching one video; subscribed and then another channel was waiting for me. just from her most recent video alone; i am HOOKED. such incredible points.
gabi belle. funny. internet culture. memes. chill time. like tell me why me learning how spotifys shuffling algorithm works was entertaining as fuck??
3:11 Rich people romanticising a vague idea of poverty? It’s so cute to see it. You just became less rich, not more poor. Also, it’s insulting to actual poor people.
P.S. Indian Celebrities do a lot of that (with exceptions of course).
My favorite influencer- who's terrible at influencing, lol!!
I would LOVE for you to do a react/commentary on Unicorn of War's Winx videos. Even if you're mostly agreeing, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Especially when it comes to his rewrites.
I'm in the U.S. and it really is a common issue where girls and guys claim they are broke then next thing you know you meet their family and their middle class to wealthy. I had a former friend who was a master snake and we would go to the mall and she would be like I'm hungry and I'm like go get some food then.She would play the victim and I felt embarrassed for her and would cave in. I finally set a boundary and I'm like look you have a job cheaper rent and parents who care quit asking me for food and money. No joke we didn't hang out after. And for the Jeffrey star point he needs to be canceled for good. He keeps snaking bad into the beauty world and I was like noooo. They use other people's pain and struggles and sneaks back because we're more focused on their lies than his. He literally wrote the script for shady influencer. He is the kind of guy to say I'm broke and you pay for his food then make a video on how selfish you are and how you should be canceled. I do not like people who profit from other people's shame and hardships.
I remember I found your channel when I was having some health issues and I watched too many of them [no shame]. I like how you are unique in this "mass trending" society.
Why they all wanna look the same? I'll never understand that.
I do tiktoks bout my opinions on different subjects [mostly in my native language: spanish] and it makes me happy how much people relate to my content BUT I'm certain I'm not the *influencer* type cause, just like you, I don't like any big popular one [i follow none]~ they're boring to me, their fake voice tones, the everything is perfect speech, the ridiculous amount of product they use, their lack of communication with followers... there's so much I do not support. I don't hate them, they're irrelevant to me.
Anyway, I think defluencing exists but sadly isn't a "mass trend" yet cause it's mostly promoted by smaller channels.
And, I DREAM brands would start to see us, regular people with a decent following, as faces for their products. I trust NOTHING said by someone with 1m [or way more] followers cause it's usually paid lies praising something.
I'm hoping social media goes back to the roots of sharing actual human being experiences instead of the "perfect setting, perfect light, perfect character" online~
