When something like "Hawk Tuah" makes you famous, that's a sign your society is broken

[@JacoWium]

Agreed. The fame is only relative though. Very few (perhaps not even 1%) of those who live and work in professional environments, who have their own families to care for and who have lives outside the internet know about that video or have any idea who she is. Those are the people that matter, who ensure that our society still functions and can sustain itself. The chronically online community, as large as it is, is thankfully still a subculture, and certainly not an environment for a long career and a stable income. But yes, I know, times are always changing. When "influencer" type ventures become the norm above careers in science, engineering, architecture, carpentry, etcetera - that's when the real doodoo will strike the fan.

Yeah, but she's not exactly famous. I think most people could walk right past her on the street and not have a second thought. People just thought the clip was funny. That's all there is to it. I don't see her turning a one-off sentence into a media-personality career. The fad over this meme is already starting to go away. I don't even think people would buy a $15 lunchbox from her. And don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to crush anyone's dreams. But she's kind of putting the cart before the horse.

Sooo many jobs out there because people think they’re above the average wage. My dad got laid off back in 2008 and started pushing carts for Walmart because everything he applied for “he was over qualified for”. No one would hire him because they truly didn’t want him to take over… so he started pushing carts. It only lasted a few months before someone hired him for a job he was qualified for. He didn’t stop grinding. He passed away two years ago but he wasn’t too proud to help out his family in any way.

Apparently, she had some random job at a spring factory; so, not much of a risk in taking a leap with this new venture. I would wager that even if she flames out quickly, she'll have made way more money than she would have over the course of many years at the factory job.

[@leonnunhofer3453]

Yep, I agree. Just invest. Play it safe, don't gamble with growth titles if it's that much. If you invest in certain industries, like cars, you will get 3 - 6 percent in returns, and it's very unlikely, that f.e. BMW or BenQ will go broke in the near future. BMW gives over 6.5%, BenQ around 3.5%, and both grew the last few years. Lockheed Martin gives around 3% and grew. Rheinmetall gave something like 5%, now 1%, because the share went up 400% since 2022. Just a few examples. Computer monitors, cars snd weapons always will sell. I am german, if I "just" had 2 million, I would invest in 4 or 5 different, big companies in the US and Germany, cars, weapons, something else, and I would get 6k, maybe 7k a month, and wouldn't have to worry about money ever again. Also get 1 apartment, 2 or 3 rooms, and some gold. He made millions in the early 2010, since then prices for real estate are way up, and gold also something like 40%. I think, with millions, it's not to hard to make sure, you never have to work again. Buying an apartment, so you don't have to pay rent, and investing in some huge, well known companies, that most likely won't get broke, really is a no-brainer. How can someone be that rich and fail so hard? That's pathetic! 🤦‍♂️ Edit: ofc that's no financial advice, just some of the titles I myself was interested in between around 2009 and now...

Loyal viewers can be made if you continue the trend of maturity and humor and entertainment is definitely an industry withstanding.

pride is perhaps one of the things. but lets be honest here. people who dont want to work always comes from an entitled life without the least amount of struggle in life. put it this way. the moment people experience hunger or being constantly poor. they will do whatever job or task that bring food to their table. Pride isnt what drives this people because Pride can only maintaine itself if you have something that backs it up. for example either comes from a secury financially place or if you have the ability to leech onto someone elses success. Pride can also be a positive outcome on people who dare i say. has the ability to prove themselves being better than the rest. professional athletes is a good example of this.

It doesnt matter if you think he deserves it or made his own bed. As a CHRISTIAN, we don’t engage in this behavior. The Bible says a wise person accepts (biblical) rebuke and correction.

If it's "just" 5 million, after taxes, and he most likely made more, invest just 2 million in some shares, and you easily will have 5k a month, most likely more. Most people in america have less. He made this money in the early 2010s. Invest another 500k in an apartment and 250k in gold, and he would have ~400k in gold and a great life right now. He could lose his apartment and all his investments, and still would have enough money in gold for a few years. How can someone fail so badly? How can someone be that stupid?

Hawk Tuah girl would be stupid to not cash in on her 5 seconds of fame. She didn't have a career. She had a crappy dead end job like everybody else and this was her ticket out of the rat race. She can always go back to another crappy job when her fame has run out. Hopefully she's smart with her money and invests it, rather than blow it.

[@thedarkemissary]

Brett, as a content creator yourself, you need to wake up. Celebridom feeds into itself. The fact that she's getting podcasts and coverage even from you is proof of concept. Famous for being famous. Popular for being popular. Getting rich by showing off how rich you are. It ain't new, it's simply more achievable than ever. Social media.

[@lemmings6516]

that sounds like a haiku

I am sure Brett is aware she's helping to revitalize his career.

[@haveaday1812]

The irony is that for all these people, even bad publicity is good publicity. And Brett cooper is just feeding the machine by even doing this video. But. She is in the dailywire sphere. Their entire platform is based off selling outrage.

[@andreashetterly8415]

Listen, I've had so many different jobs and gained so much experience in my life, I wouldn't trade it for anything. I personally think everyone should work either in the food/service industry or retail. It's character building. It humbles you an teaches you how to respect those that are working those jobs. I'm a teacher now, but I'll be darned if I ever give a food/service/retail employee a hard time. Most of those people are just trying to do their jobs and they don't make the prices or policies. Anyways, rant over. Go get a job or go raise children and be a homemaker, both respectable lifestyles.

[@YvonneHoerde]

What about doing both? Having a job and raising kids, I mean? Do conservatives also respect this?

[@sarahwong5592]

​@@YvonneHoerde Of course. She just added the part about homemakers to clarify that "go get a job" wasn't an insult to what they do, that she also respects their occupation, and doesn't lump them in with people like the layabout this video was about.

[@Kelly-pp1et]

I worked at the food industry and retail for 20 years while I was a teacher. Yes it builds character but I also think, you need to have a character to do it in the first place. Those years we were working tirelessly. Now go to any store and ask for a little help and you will get a stare from hell . Or go to a restaurant and ask for some napkins and you will get them with an attitude and a slam on the table.

[@zed8z]

If you gona talk about humiliation and insult that’s the easy job anyone can do because people doesn’t know what respect is because they think they are better than anyone doing normal job.

You can make money many other ways besides a 9 to 5. You can be your own boss installing air-conditioning, real estate as was mentioned, etc. There are many trades. Jason just seems like he lost all dignity and self-respect

[@Robert_H_Diver]

What a pathetic attitude

[@brandonarmstrong2053]

This perspective is exactly the reason smart people don’t want a 9-5

[@EddieHenderson92]

If a 9 to 5 job could give us the middle-class life like it did in the past, I'm sure Gen-Z would do it even if it wasn't their so-called dream career, but the problem is that is gone, and the middle class is declining. No point in working yourself into an early grave to make others rich.

[@aviastro2162]

Employee name tag joke though🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@brianthesnail3815]

It's a funny thing is fame. A close relative of mine became very famous for a short time some decades ago. So famous she could read headlines at a train station printed and dispatched and being sold in a newspaper in the time it took her to make the train journey. She was looking at her own face on a frontpage walking past real people stood next to her who could see her in real life looking at that front page reading about things she had done two hours ago. It was a weird time and an unpleasant experience. For the vulnerable person it could be highly addictive though with the dopamine hit of attention. My relative lived as a recluse for a few years to make it go away. People still contacted her years later and its only a few clicks away on Google so her work colleagues always find her backstory. The internet never forgets. That is what social media is doing to people.

[@tokyosan7906]

The Hok Tua Girl is really interesting to me. I've seen short vids of her activities since going viral and she doesn't strike me as all that interesting. Some people's 15 minutes literally last 15 minutes and I bet she's one of em. As for the guy begging on tiktok, I don't even know who he is lol.

Before the internet there were millions of people that believed they could write a best selling novel. Most of them lacked the talent of storytelling, just as many lacked the skills to actually write a coherent story, and on top of all that is that you need a good story to tell. Most of the editors who choose what books will be published only read one or two pages of a manuscript. If you don't grab the reader's attention in the opening pages, the book won't sell.

[@bolotabr12]

The question I have is how much money is Jason Nash really making begging? Maybe there is a reason he doesn't want to stop. Don't know anything about TikTok, so don't know what the $ are involve.

[@megsley]

[@ashleywilson5187]

The galaxies he’s begging for are basically tips. They range in price. It’s kids with their parents cards and previous fans probably donating

[@rrrealqueen]

It's crucial for content creators to build a sustainable career, considering the fickle nature of fame. The rise and fall of influencers like Jason Nash can be a learning experience for upcoming creators. Humility and responsibility are as important as their creativity and energy.

[@P.Whitestrake]

There was a mini series created by an Australian studio on KZbin about how quick a girl gained fame on the internet & how quick she lost it. So, this girl did a Facebook live on her way to her friend's place. She was singing Vanessa Carlton's song in the car whilst driving. Then BAM! She had an accident & her car flipped. She was OK, but the phone camera showed her upside down & she became a viral sensation known as "The Flip Girl." After her quick fame, she became an influencer. She was at the top. However, she didn't have any skills to support her fame. So, her fame declined. She tried to make another viral moment, but it failed. People got bored with her & she returned to be a regular person.
