Everything Wrong With This Generation in A 4-minute Video

[Johnny San]

Assume much?

I assume that because it would be foolish to think that making money off twerking (plus whatever else she does) makes this generation look bad.

 

[TKB]

I think his point wasn't regarding that she is doing what she wants to do and loves and makes lots of money doing it.

It's the fact that someone can make an absurd amount of money shaking her ass through social media while people like fire fighters, police officers, school teachers(ESPECIALLY teachers) etc. make a pretty small amount of money in relation to the kind of work they do.

People that save fucking lives. People that teach our children. People that put their own lives at risk everyday to protect others. I personally think that's pretty disgusting.

Now the fact that she's making money and happy, there's no problem there. She should be extremely proud of herself and I can't fault her for how well she's doing.

But that's not a problem of this generation. That's caused by Gen X and the greedy as fuck baby boomers. We're just living the consequences.

If I were a capitalist I would make a point about supply and demand....but I am a socialist, so instead I'll just say that I'm less offended by her making 6 figures for twearking as I am at the people who make billions in this country leaching off the government and destroying people jobs and livelihood.

 

[Rabbit]

I hope she doesn't think that sort of income from a fad is going to last more than 1-2 years at best.




Also her brother being the cameraman is kind of

I actually completely agree with you on that.

 

[KHAOTIC_UNCLE-_-CREEPY]

She can get it

Incest?

 

[Youphemism]

Your point was stupid anyway.

You mean Braindead's point.

People call her stupid yet she went from making low five figures to six figures all by doing something she loves.

As long as there isnt anything illegal about it and it doesnt hurt anyone else, who am I to judge?



People have made money just by being born to a rich family. Getting an inheritance, happening to live on top of oil or other minerals. Those people didnt work at all, so where is your criticism for them?

People also make money cheating people out of their money, protecting rapists and murderers and insuring that big companies give more of the tax burden to your average middle class citizen.

So again, if she isnt doing anything illegal, is not hurting anybody, and working towards her own personal goals who are you to judge?

It's not about the fact she loves doing it, it's about what it is that she's doing that's getting her all these views and all this money. I suppose I agree with your point about it not being illegal or hurting anyone but it's hurting what's under my zip

The criticism for that isn't here because that's got nothing to do with the thread. But I'd still criticise that too.

 

[Youphemism]

No I got the point, the point is fucking bullshit. She's making Six Figures? So fucking what that means she's providing a service that people want & pay for & advertisers see as a way to get their product out to people thus she's paid for her services. What the fuck is the problem?

It's the fact that people have more want for a "service" like a girl shaking her ass on camera and she's getting paid more for it than people who actually contribute something productive to society like firemen or teachers.

I hope she doesn't think that sort of income from a fad is going to last more than 1-2 years at best.

Hahaha yeah that's pretty weird, if my sister was doing that I'd never want to be the cameraman.

 

[haketh]

How is what she doing not productive? And how is it the fault of this current generation & not generations past?

[Sutter Pain]

Go girl and make that money while you can and wisely save/invest it. Props to her for seizing a good opportunity and making it work.

 

[Shaazzyam]

She never taught kindergarten. Jessica quit her daycare job because she has like 2 million followers on Vine and a bunch on Twitter and Instagram.


Making six figures a year from ads, promotions, etc.> change baby diapers.

 

[Pig Of The Hut]

Her brother is her cameraman (holds iPhone) ??????


Bruh


BRUH...........

 

[Saboteur-6]

How is this an indictment of Jessica or even a generation? The Entertainment / Advertising industry in the US has been disproportionately skewed compared to Civil Service / Education / Mental Health / Social Work / Etc / for a while now. Look at how much money a professional athlete makes compared to your first-grade teacher.

 

[Tony at Home]

This is Henry Paulson. Say hi to Henry.

This guy made millions while doing everything he could to ensure the economy tanked in 2007/2008. Yeah, made millions while he helped to screw up everything- including the financial livelihoods of hundreds of thousands of people. He even managed to help put the entire Euro-currency zone in danger by allowing Greece to hide their sketchy financials until it was too late.

Once again, he made A TON of money while doing this... If some chick makes money twerking, at least she is not screwing over the world by doing it. Hard to say this makes "our generation' the worst thing since the clap.

 

[Rampage254]

Pshh @GuamoKun can out-twerk her.

 

[Koor]

What shes doing is horrendous...........wrong in so many ways.........she needs to be..........stopped or......somthin'................

 

[John Grizzly]

Guys will pay money to ejaculate. Lots of money.

My GF was on one of those webcam sites for a while. She made over $1,000 a night doing it. She hasn't been on there in a while but some guys still send her money for no reason.

 

[ColdBoreMK23]

If people are dumb enough to pay then it's not her fault.

 

[EarlyReflections]

the age of vanity

 

[NRF CharlieMurphy]

People have been making money "doing" nothing ever sense salesmen came to be.

This is nothing new. People want it.... they buy it.

For some reason everyone is reading "everything wrong with the generation" and assuming he meant what the girl did.

I'm pretty sure he means "why are people buying her services"

No I get it. But people "are buying her services" because she's A. An internet viral celeb and B. Sex sells. It's not merely a generational critique though, it's a cultural critique that encompasses much more than the past 25 years was my point.
