This video is just about that GOD AWFUL Crypto island that was trying to get funded earlier this year. I will be an NFT hater till I die. All of my socials are @roramdin and my Twitter is funny so uhhh follow it

[@AdequateEmily]

It should be pointed out the Twitter account said the island’s age of consent would be “emotional maturity”

[@roramdin]

absolutely insane

im just curious what the string of swearing was about. i find long strings of swearing to be funny in certain circumstances.

[@Thawah]

I'm also pretty sure the "not your keys not your bitcoin" written on the keys the guy was holding, is unfortunately also a very old meme reference. "Not my chair, not my problem" ?

[@aphroditestan]

justified & cosigned tbh. I mean, it was literally over 10 years ago, so many of the people promoting NFTs & huge portions of their followinga won't even know the reference. the entire ad(?)/video just kept progressively getting worse. it feels like a meta joke, is this a real thing? I'm still confused

[@Lucifersfursona]

She’s right and she should say it

[@ultravajlet]

This video is Ro's joker moment. If you're reading this comment i would highly reccomend postponing travel to gotham until she has been apprehended by the batman

[@victorsmith11]

Video was posted from Arkham asylum, I think we’re safe

[@vicktoon4645]

makes sense when you consider they want this project to fail so they can make off with every dollar towards making this a thing and disappear with no legal repercussions

[@vicktoon4645]

ad is shitty enough to gain free press through memes and dunks online, cryptobros refuse to listen to "non-believers" and will fund it out of spite, project leaders slither away with everything because at the end of the day they never planned to bring it into fruition in the first place the island is not the product: you are

[@blackanimecat2]

I guess its like that alex jones thing. "Self selecting" having the people who wont be gotten by this obviously crazy grift filter themselfs out and leave only marks behind.

[@nanya992]

Like a surreal dystopian 21st century 'The Producers'

[@-thurston]

Don’t have time to watch just yet but I’m so happy you’ve posted again. Take your time and do what’s best for you, I don’t pretend to know what’s going on in anyones given life but I love your content and will always be a fan. Thanks ro for all that you put in to making us smile

[@-thurston]

Ok I just got done watching and I take it all back because you were wrong about formaldehyde

[@stattichavoc5591]

I have never seen someone understand the absolute unrelenting anger i have towards this cryptoland video and the 17 polygons it has in it, thank you for spitting facts as always Ro

Ro drops her long-awaited video on my birthday, i am so cosmically blessed

[@roramdin]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

[@Emma-zc5jm]

I'm so glad someone else also experiences absolutely uncontrollable, almost violent anger when the coin started singing

[@olimagmoli]

your absolutely haunted stare whenever the weirdass coin did literally anything is killing me. but not nearly as much as "honey badger don't care"

[@kali.8608]

You are so right in taking breaks from the internet/uploading, but goddamn. I saw this pop up on my feed and got so giddy to see Ro again. I’m infinitely happy, this made my day so much better. I haven’t been this excited about a KZbinr’s come up pretty much ever aside from Tara Mooknee

[@DE-GEN-ART]

this video was animated on a silicone graphics indigo machine from 1995

[@sacharyy]

was packing a bowl while watching this and my phone was placed in a very precarious position so it fell and ended in the most impossible spot under my bed to get to so I just could hear Ro’s voice coming from underneath my bed for a couple minutes

[@Abigail-bl6mr]

what's scary is that this is also happening in Puerto Rico because of the tax loophole. this means gentrification, new gated communities, basically a modern form of colonization. read Naomi Klein's essay "Battle for Paradise" if you're interested in learning about how crypto-colonialism and disaster capitalism is destroying Puerto Rico 🙃

[@antisocialxconstruct]

I've seen a handful of more scripted and coherent critiques of the cryptoland video but this is by far the one that best encapsulates the pure disbelief/horror/burning rage cocktail that it rightfully evokes and I respect your complete refusal to like... meet it at its own level. (Also not sure if this is your first ad spot or not but either way congrats on getting that bread!)

[@maxthemannequin4143]

Ro, this video is incredible and puts all of this so clearly. But, as a US Senator....can you please let me know if sex is legal? I know you weren't making promises but I really need to know.

[@jj_verona]

Vote for them in the midterms and MAYBE they'll legalize the sex

[@minine6508]

The fact that this is pretty much how every cryptobro sees themselves it awful

[@marsupialsofmars3886]

The reason all graphic design and art and such is so terrible with nft stuff is because the people this into it are interested in money and business exclusively and have no other interests, talents, desire for creative pursuits... it's really hilarious because the pitch always tries to come around to giving artists freedom but clearly there are a total of 0 indie artists involved

Good (bad) news: there's an early extended cut of this video floating around. So many even worse jokes that were cut, and weirdly the shirt texture popping was intentional?

Ro I think you’re legitimately the funniest youtuber that I watch nowadays. Whenever you upload it’s always a treat to me. I struggle with motivation and creativity and you’re an inspiration to me. I’ll always enjoy whatever you put out.

[@pjmcewan1909]

hey ro! glad to see you back and im so excited to finish the video. I would love if you could make the content you are watching full screen, even though i might have to burn my retina's after seeing it, but it's a little tricky to see the video with it being so small. love ya as always

U back and u getting that sponsor bag lets go Rose!!!

[@wyrmiii]

I do not believe I could have even ASKED for a better video right now. Partially because I have crippling anxiety and the inability to make decisions, but also because I love Rose and I've been obsessed with watching people react to this horrible, horrible idea ever since ThoughtSlime and Sophie watched it together. Thank you as always Rose! Hope you're feeling good :)

This island video is truly terrifying. Watching this was like watching a horror movie and the only thing that even remotely made it endurable is the presence of someone else who is likewise terrified and trying to process what is happening.
