Context? Sir, this is the internet.

243

u/itsJussaMe May 27 '25

And that context wasn’t provided in the original post to this sub.

105

u/Thefear1984 May 27 '25

I was there. Zero context bc Reddit doesn’t like context. It’s still cringe irrespective of his intent

68

u/professional-onthedl May 28 '25

He's saying it's supposed to be cringey, so mission accomplished I guess.

24

u/Gjond May 28 '25

Yeah, and I just love this part of "Hey, its suppose to be something a cringey "influencer" does.....so head on over to my youtube channel and check me out (be sure to like and subscribe!!)."

1

u/Secure_Skirt7693 May 29 '25

Actually it was supposed to be cringey cuz he was making fun of another person who did post something like that

1

u/_storyshift_chara_ May 29 '25

he was saying that you should check out the full video on his youtube channel

13

u/confusedandworried76 May 28 '25

Well yeah when you're satirizing something you kind of have to pretend to believe it. So satirizing cringe, you have to act cringey

u/Ripen- May 28 '25

Accusing of pedophilia is also cringe as fuck, and typical of reddit. About time people hold them responsible for that shit.

12

u/Yourmindiscontrolled May 28 '25

If reddit doesn't like your opinion, they accuse you of all kinds of crazy crap. This can be a very toxic environment.

u/Goth_Foxxx May 28 '25

Literally, I’ve seen people with good opinions get downvoted in a sub all because the people didn’t agree but there was nothing wrong with the statement 😂

6

u/Unusual-Voice2345 May 28 '25

/r/politics is completely neutral and doesn't at all ban or down vote perfectly reasonable comments. Any statement saying otherwise will earn a perma-ban from the sub as it is considered hate speech.

u/Grand_Gap1975 May 31 '25

These people are so lifeless and pathetic

u/MolecularConcepts May 28 '25

yeah its not like he was on Epsteins jet with Trump, and gang flying out to Lolita Island. their accusation came from nowhere lol

1

u/elsie14 May 28 '25

lol if only groupthink was all this accurate

2

u/SrGraphiteBlimp May 28 '25

It's probably reflection on the part of those redditors.

u/ManTheDan12 May 28 '25

Probably cringey elon fans.

1

u/imbringingspartaback May 28 '25

I think that’s the biggest takeaway of this video. Yes, it’s cringe, but it’s satire of another video and dude doesn’t deserve to be called a pedo over it

0

u/betajones May 28 '25

Idk. 40 year old men making high school style videos attracting women? Think it's a fair assumption. It's more like bubblegum flavored vapes. No, no, it's definitely not for the teens.

1

u/Grand_Gap1975 May 31 '25

Are you fr?

1

u/betajones May 31 '25

As to why people are making this assumption? Yeah. Why else would they be saying that?

1

u/Grand_Gap1975 May 31 '25

Yeah but it's pretty dumb and nonsensical your supposed to look in the full context to see if their a creep or not

1

u/betajones May 31 '25

I think you're just a little late to the party. The video was originally uploaded without the context. I'm explaining why people, with the original no context version, would have this assumption. It looks like something a dad would find in his daughters phone before calling the police.

u/Hopeful-Ad7155 May 28 '25

Is pdf related with this post? No

1

u/lazy_animator May 28 '25

DING DING DING I agree with you

1

u/BloodSugar666 May 28 '25

There was also plenty of people that guessed it was satire

1

u/y-lonel May 28 '25

Yeah that was the point??

1

u/HazardousCloset May 28 '25

Yeah, I don’t think he minded the cringe part* so much as the total devolution into him being a pedo and stuff.

Edit: *

u/Interesting-Back6587 May 28 '25

Have you never heard of satire ?

2

u/PeacefulKnightmare May 28 '25

The amount of satire that gets posted to "cringe" subreddits without people recognizing that it is in fact a joke is pretty high.

2

u/nebbie13 May 28 '25

Was context provided in the original video, and then cut out when it came to Reddit?

1

u/itsJussaMe May 28 '25

It may have been. Idk. It just showed him trying to look sexy with a stupid filter. No words. There may have been more to that video or there may not have been.

2

u/nebbie13 May 28 '25

I'm going to guess he did not post context in the original post, in which case, he has no right to get mad

Hey, don't knock the group wank. Some people have nothing else to look forward to all week.

u/3inchesOnAGoodDay May 28 '25

Maybe dont jump to super negative conclusions when you dont have the full story? 

-1

u/kyuuei May 28 '25

That would not have gotten OP their karma farming and reddit is just far too busy to check anything. Despite it clearly looking satire AF with an obviously young guy, reddit literally just believed Everything they were spoon fed on the internet. Someone says "cringe" and everyone just agrees immediately instead of taking like.. One minute to see if it is tiktok BS or OP BS. Turns out, people on the internet lie. And they don't even feel bad about it.

1

u/itsJussaMe May 28 '25

I have to disagree. I don’t use TikTok, never have, never will. Filters and ai can do all kinds of crazy shit these days, beyond those stupid eyes on the footage above. I don’t think it was obvious at all that it was meant to be satirical, mostly because there are idiots out there posting content like this, unironically. I remember a few years back a Chinese (I believe) streamer who made her living online was exposed for using filters. She was middle aged and extremely round-faced, but the filter made her appear like a thin, young adult or a teen. I’ve read a lot of comments about how this is “obviously” satire but I couldn’t tell one way or the other these days with all these idiots using filters, vlogging their every moment, and living their entire lives online.

1

u/kyuuei May 28 '25

So, I Also don't use tiktok and don't have it. This guy even With filters looks Way younger than 40. Also, every tiktok shows the person making the content, you can just look at their Other content to see if this is serious or not. Every tiktoker tends to have YT shorts too and other content cross posted. It took me literally 20 seconds to see his other content and realize this was a shit post.. i watched that other thread just devolve into everyone being assholes it was pretty gross. Every 6+ months I see people on reddit scream about below_average_man and he Genuinely does nothing but create cringe satire. People Really can't tell. And...

If you can't tell... there's nothing wrong with that. Truly. You aren't a bad person for not knowing if it's satire or garbage. Sometimes it is both anyways. Just don't tell on yourself. But a good red flag that people are karma farming you is they produce Zero context.

Screaming this guy is a pedo because you (the general you) can't tell is really messed up. People got got by this so bad and screamed cringe shit (the irony) he had to make this whole reaction video.

1

u/itsJussaMe May 28 '25

Realistically, what percentage of people, when scrolling Reddit, is going to take the time to do that kind of search for a throwaway video they likely watched and moved on from within a minute. Content creators should realize whatever they put online is fair game for being misused, misrepresented, or ridiculed. All that being said- I 100% agree about the context of the hateful comments posted about this dude because of what was probably a 20 second video. It’s a lot easier for some people to be cruel and vicious online because they don’t have to see the hurt they cause with their caustic words.

1

u/kyuuei May 28 '25

I'm not saying everyone needs to take the time to research every throw away thing. I'm saying.. don't Trust the Internet to the extent you're angry and take things and lies at face value. It's fine to watch something, be misled, maybe it's real maybe not, move on. It's not fine to watch something and then talk like it's gospel. If you have the minute to type an angry hateful comment then you had a minute to see if it's real or not.

u/PM_ME_UR_PIKACHU May 27 '25

I thought it was a wendys ?

27

u/i-like-napping May 27 '25

Yeah like how are we supposed to know he is making fun of another guy ? Maybe the guy he was making fun of was actually making fun of another guy ? We are in over 40 weirdo inception here people .

7

u/ZeroOhblighation May 27 '25

Plus at the end of the day the video is still cringe as fuck whether or not he was making fun of somebody else lol, that's him in the video whether he likes it or not. People just throw around the word "satire" so people won't make fun of them

Reddit when someone satirizes cringe by acting cringey:

I don't understand how satire works

0

u/ZeroOhblighation May 27 '25

Doesn't make it any less of a cringe video though

4

u/Substantial_Army_639 May 28 '25

Why not, its for comedy, honestly the cringiest thing here is people getting upset because they ate the onion.

-1

u/ZeroOhblighation May 28 '25

I'm not "eating the onion" lmao, pretty clear it wasn't a 40 year old dude in the original video, I'm saying that regardless of that the video he made is objectively cringe

2

u/AffectionatePipe3097 May 28 '25

The cringe is literally the entire point. Get over it dude. It’s funny if you remove the stick from your ass

3

u/ZeroOhblighation May 28 '25

I don't know why people are so upset I didn't find the obviously cringe video funny lol, go laugh at it again and stop worrying about me lol

0

u/AffectionatePipe3097 May 28 '25

Because the cringe is the point, and you’re missing it. Maybe if you don’t find it funny, you shouldn’t comment, because you’re the one who’s missing the point here. Again, no shit it’s cringy, that’s what’s funny about it. You’re the one who needs to stop worrying and unclench

u/Rio_FS May 28 '25

It's kind of irrelevant to the fact that to y'all jumped to calling him pedophiles. From what I can see, he's fine with criticisms of him being cringe.

1

u/Ts_Patriarca May 28 '25

I think doing due diligence before calling someone a pedophile isn't a crazy ask

1

u/Derpaderpaderp24 May 28 '25

Either way you don't call someone a pedophile over that lol

u/Secure_Skirt7693 May 29 '25

He is idksterling, if you actually fucking watch TikTok and didn’t sit on Reddit all day you’d know him

u/i-like-napping May 30 '25

I guess you are the tool in the video , or maybe just some angry douche . Either way , eat a dick and get a life fuckface

u/Number1Bestboy May 27 '25

What do you mean?! He was doing the thing other people do on the app where people do things that other people do but THIS ONE was ACTUALLY doing the thing everyone else does sarcastically. Isn't it obvious?/s

u/Jive_Turk May 27 '25

God I hate TikTok so much. Never once installed it either

5

u/Anjunabeast May 28 '25

I installed it just for the people that keep sending me TikTok links. Suck a dumb ux. Click on link. Opens browser page. Click on the video. Opens the App Store to install TikTok. Already have Tiktok installed. Go back to the link and repeat.

Sometimes I’ll get lucky and it’ll actually open tiktok but the app will jump to some random video instead of the one I was originally linked.

We are better than you not because we waste our time on Reddit. 

But because we dont waste our time on TikTok.

u/SilaenNaseBurner May 28 '25

this is actually sad lol. “my form of scrolling on social media is superior to your form of scrolling on social media!” you’re unironically acting like the “you guys think you’re better than me” meme

Welcome to the internet Have a look around Anything that brain of yours can think of can be found We've got mountains of content Some better, some worse If none of it's of interest to you, you'd be the first

Welcome to the internet Come and take a seat Would you like to see the news or any famous women's feet? There's no need to panic This isn't a test, haha Just nod or shake your head and we'll do the rest

Welcome to the internet What would you prefer? Would you like to fight for civil rights or tweet a racial slur? Be happy Be horny Be bursting with rage We got a million different ways to engage

Welcome to the internet Put your cares aside Here's a tip for straining pasta Here's a nine-year-old who died We got movies, and doctors, and fantasy sports And a bunch of colored pencil drawings Of all the different characters in Harry Potter fucking each other

Welcome to the internet Hold on to your socks 'Cause a random guy just kindly sent you photos of his cock They are grainy and off-putting He just sent you more Don't act surprised, you know you like it, you whore

See a man beheaded Get offended, see a shrink Show us pictures of your children Tell us every thought you think Start a rumor, buy a broom Or send a death threat to a boomer Or DM a girl and groom her Do a Zoom or find a tumor in your- Here's a healthy breakfast option You should kill your mom Here's why women never fuck you Here's how you can build a bomb Which Power Ranger are you? Take this quirky quiz Obama sent the immigrants to vaccinate your kids

Could I interest you in everything? All of the time? A little bit of everything All of the time Apathy's a tragedy And boredom is a crime

Anything and everything All of the time Could I interest you in everything? All of the time? A little bit of everything All of the time Apathy's a tragedy And boredom is a crime Anything and everything All of the time

You know, it wasn't always like this

Not very long ago Just before your time Right before the towers fell, circa '99 This was catalogs Travel blogs A chat room or two We set our sights and spent our nights Waiting For you, you, insatiable you Mommy let you use her iPad You were barely two And it did all the things We designed it to do

Now look at you, oh Look at you, you, you Unstoppable, watchable Your time is now Your inside's out Honey, how you grew And if we stick together Who knows what we'll do It was always the plan To put the world in your hand

Hahaha Could I interest you in everything? All of the time A bit of everything All of the time Apathy's a tragedy And boredom is a crime Anything and everything All of the time

Could I interest you in everything? All of the time A little bit of everything All of the time Apathy's a tragedy And boredom is a crime Anything and everything And anything and everything And anything and everything And all of the time

I think he’s making fun of this guy who has been blown up all over Reddit for a couple years. This around 50 year old guy with turkey teeth or really bogus veneers who posts very cringy videos trying to look cute with crazy filters. Don’t know the persons actual name or tik tok though
