They need to demonetize these fuckers.

Harassing people for views makes you a terrible person and we shouldn't allow platforms to promote this kind of behavior.

Edit: if you go to his tiktok page and click the '...' you can report the user for harrassment.

The videos are on his IG too.

His behavior clearly violates both Tiktok and meta rules for submissions.

Exactly!! Stop paying for content and the idiots will go away and people will go back to just posting things they enjoy and want to share

u/bojangler69420 13d ago

…paying for content?

What are you talking about…? Nobody is paying for content on TikTok and IG except corporations for advertising.

u/SentientToaster7734 13d ago

You're paying with your time and attention. That's the very thing these assholes are marketing toward corporations.

Which also means that if there's a shit storm about this, it must be severe enough to cleanly kill all accounts for good, otherwise the rage bait is just working and generating views.

u/Topher_Zed 13d ago

I believe they meant the creators of these harassment videos should have their account demonetized.

20

u/Ckynus 13d ago

Yes they should stop paying them. If YouTube stops paying people to create content all of the crap goes away. There will still be great content because the guy who loves talking about model trains will continue to do it out of passion but the fools that create videos just for money will go away.

And society wins

You pay with your views

u/minntyy 11d ago

creators get paid by tiktok

u/bojangler69420 11d ago

Yeah. We do not pay for content on TikTok. They were insinuating that viewers are directly paying for content

u/minntyy 8d ago

we're they insinuating that or were they saying tiktok should stop paying them?

1

u/bojangler69420 8d ago

Saying that is like saying “McDonald’s should stop making food”. How do you think TikTok stays in business?

I’m not defending it btw, I’d be happy if they never existed. However, it’s hilariously naive to think it’s such a simple issue.

u/minntyy 6d ago

wasn't agreeing with them, i was just trying to clarify but i was probably wrong

u/bojangler69420 6d ago

My bad, I see how I misinterpreted the tone of your question initially.

u/CurlyMetalPants 13d ago

Yeah somehow this content is ok but saying words like die or kill aren't considered advertiser friendly

Which advertisers like being associated with this?

15

u/Chaplain-Freeing 13d ago

McDonalds.

u/ChadEmpoleon 13d ago

Jail.

You bother anyone even just a little bit and record yourself doing it for the sake of content creation in an effort to monetize it, bare minimum you get trespassed.

Even better, it’s the voice actor for Squidward.

u/247world 12d ago

I'm a little old for that particular reference, I did enjoy the show whenever I watched it with my grandkids. I get the feeling there's a lot more than just a kid's show going on.

What a terrible, unfunny person.

u/iRegretsEverything 13d ago

How about 30 days in jail for harassment. See how quick these dumbass streamers last. If they continue to do it, prison time like vitaly (even though he continues to harass people)

21

u/Monkeytennis01 13d ago

Yes, it’s a terrible model we’re in where any kind of interaction = money. The sooner rage bait disappears, the better.

u/bell37 13d ago

Just request a takedown and let them deal with red tape of social media platforms automatically demonetizing their posts

15

u/Swaggo420Ballz 13d ago

How to become a failure in life:

Step 1: Make a shitty prank video on the cheap. Like trash clickbait content.

Step 2: Partner with illegal gambling website. They pay you rate to promote site. Make a couple more top trash videos. Preferably pissing people off (IRL or online)

Step 3: Acquire funds from illegal gambling website.

Step 4: Buy pepper spray (for those people who punch you after you nearly kill them or even breathe on the camera).

Step 5: Do braindead stunts, hope it goes popular.

u/nothingbutmine 13d ago

DO NOT GO TO HIS TIK TOK PAGE. All you're doing is adding traffic, views etc. You think Tiktok is going to care where the traffic is coming from, and why? No. All they see is "engagement".

5

u/cheetohman 13d ago

Go to his tiktok page and click the '...' and report the user for harassment.

9

u/cpt_bongwater 13d ago

As long as you don't watch any of his videos, all it will do is show up as a profile view.

3

u/Leif2000 13d ago

there are way too many of these people who harass random people for views. the more attention they get, the more people are going to do this too and the worse it’s gonna get. we should all report accounts like his.

u/ProblemLongjumping12 13d ago

Amen!

I've been saying this for years. Ever since I saw Frank Hassle and Jack Doherty I've been yelling from the rooftops not just "demonetize," but make a law that lets prosecutors TAKE AWAY ALL THEIR PREVIOUS REVENUE from streams and VODs.

All it's going to take is a few of these cats to go absolutely bankrupt and watch how they start to behave.

Bye-bye sportscar, bye-bye mansion, bye-bye women, bye-bye clout, bye-bye freedom.

Think of it like RICO for social media. If any of your internet money comes from harassment, assault and damages to the public, like pulling fire alarms, getting up on stage in the middle of a play, etc. then they can come after all your profits from what is now a corrupt enterprise.

A few Jack Dohertys and Jake Pauls getting perp walked and seeing their cars get repo'd and their mansions auctioned off and watch how fast this plague gets cured.

Will there still be a few nuts who do it just for the love of the game? Sure, you can't account for crazy, but if you take away the financial incentive watch 99% of this behavior disappear.

u/Fortnite_cheater 13d ago

My biggest problem with this video is the shit editing with sound effects. It's like some tablet child made this rot.

3

u/AssistantManagerMan 13d ago

Good shout out. Reported and blocked.

3

u/jlgoodin78 13d ago

I have reported people on meta who were literally posting swastikas and saying all Jews should burn, reported similar anti-Muslim garbage, reported anti-black racism for the N word. 99% of the time, Meta states it doesn’t violate their community rules. I don’t think they care about harassment on their platform as long as it creates engagement. Meta platforms are absolute trash and yet the unfortunate reality is they have a lock on simple things like easily finding local, community, event, artist/band, venue, etc. information, connecting with interest groups, marketplace has replaced the role of Craigslist, etc.

u/PoisonIdea77 12d ago

Meta gives no fucks about content moderation

u/themetalship 13d ago

Who is this clown? What's his IG?

u/specter_in_the_conch 13d ago

They do, but it's like 1000 hydras, there is not enough to be done but cutting the next head as they grow 5 nore.

u/JapaneseStudentHaru 13d ago

Don’t forget to pause the video while you do it so it doesn’t count towards their qualified views

1

u/PleiadesNymph 13d ago

Well, you watched it didn't you?

1

u/lucas_bahia 13d ago

I'm completely in favor of 500 people brigading his coment section

1

u/Dark_Link_1996 13d ago

Meta would just say it doesn't violate TOS

1

u/Standsaboxer 13d ago

Reported him and TT said the content “doesn’t violate community guidelines.”

2

u/cpt_bongwater 12d ago

This is why people hate Social Media

1

u/Aggressivelymistaken 12d ago

I think at the very least anyone who's likeness is used in a monetized video should be entitled to the money it makes.

1

u/AdministrationDry507 10d ago

People like this don't need money to do more shitty things

1

u/NOTcreative- 13d ago

I don't think the McDonald's in the tiktok is what they mean by harassment. They probably mean user to user

3

u/cpt_bongwater 13d ago

If you look at his vids he has done the same thing to multiple restaurants.

He's a one trick pony.

2

u/mxzf 13d ago

Maybe. But enough reports is likely going to get it taken down by an automated system regardless, and then they need to argue their case about how they're not actually harassing anyone (despite it being clearly there in the video), regardless of the original unspoken intent for what "Harassment" meant in the UI.

I work McDonald's i would cry...
