Beats me. I keep seeing his stupid ass face in search results that are completely unrelated to my search, and the sheer amount of views. I can’t even comprehend as to why people watch this ass. At least now it is somewhat known that he’s a scumbag. Unsurprisingly & unfortunately it did not seem to have any effect on his popularity.
That’s an interesting thing I’ve observed–we seem to be past “cancel culture” or it only gets credit when a known scoundrel gets de-platformed. We’re in the age of too-big-to-fail celebrities. If they have a large enough base, there’s unlikely anything they can do to completely lose them or fall that far into obscurity.
I think there’s a certain category of net denizen that becomes a more devote fan the more it comes out that the person is a scumbag.
Reminds me of when I argue with some members of my family and it seems like they wait for me to have a position just to take the opposite of it to be argumentative and contrarian.
Cancel culture only really is a thing when the person on the receiving end is capable of feeling the tiniest shred of embarrassment/remorse for what they’ve done (not being caught). People fade into obscurity when they get “cancelled” because the massive outcry from the public convinces them they can’t ignore that what they’re doing is wrong anymore. In the case of most fascist hucksters (as well as Mr Beast), they are incapable of seeing that what they’ve done is wrong, so they can never be convinced of the need to stop
