RE: Are We Too Hard on Travel 'Influencers'?

in Worldmappin11 days ago

My sister hates when I do these "conversation traps".

I can see why :P Do you also pull her braids?

I honestly think the people moaning about it are just jealous. They're not able to make money from their shit talking and their cowboy 4x4 shenagins so they like to be mean about people who have figured out how to make money from their passions.

I mean, a ton of influencers are dickheads, don't get me wrong. And what's horrifying is that there's a ton of American teenagers who are choosing 'influencer' as their number 1 career choice without realising that you need a heap of others skills other than good looks to compete and actually create something valuable.

Sort:  

No I didn't pull their braids haha!

I don't remember if I read it in a more recent book or maybe it was just a tweet (or maybe an 'x'?) what are they called now?

"I hated when boys would pull my trensas when I was little...
Funny how things change..."

I didn't pull hair, I used my fists 😭
When I got big enough to be a challenge, I discovered I could fight back. Then they were scared. Namely #3
I eventually set down my arms
and instead took up the pen

I was going to say jealousy but opted for the word envy instead because "jealous" sounded more childlike, or as if the matter is not so serious. Or they mean the same thing? I don't think so because we have two different words for them as well...
Maybe I like the word jealous better now. Because that is what these "high profile" "influencers" act like sometimes: children.

Did you make an angry comment on their YouTubes? Lol
Shame on them for unknowingly bashing on their own followers. Like my now president did to a prominent Puerto Rican public figure who formerly supported him. Tisk tisk.
