If memory serves (being knowledge I gleaned from a podcast). He’s a YouTuber that has carved out a popular niche in philanthropy of sorts. All for views of course, but some philanthropy none the less. Very popular I think with, I want to say Gen Alpha aged kids. A lot of people have imitated the content style in the last few years. So I guess there is instant brand recognition and trust there for a lot of people.

Oh boy. This is all moving very quickly. People already fall for simple SMS scams, I can only imagine just how many more will be falling victim to this trash in months/years to come.

I don’t know whether they’re trying to stir outrage to keep their narrative in the public sphere, or realistically attempting to solicit new members from the general public at a shopping mall. Either way it’s moronic and wrong.

Any way to read this without being a subscriber?
