The guy running a hostile workplace while hanging out with Logan Paul, selling junk food to children, and putting on reality shows so hostile to the contestants that they get compared to torture is... into cryptocurrency?! I'm shocked! Shocked!

Goodness kids need some better role models because sometimes it seems 90% of people on the social networks are morally bankrupt.

Can’t believe this soulless empty eyed husk of a person is a grifter!

The world needs another Mister Rogers, but I'm not sure if the world wants another Mister Rogers.

I don't think another Mister Rogers could or would want to compete for views based on thumbnails and video titles. I just can't imagine, "You will NOT BELIEVE how EASY it is to treat your NEIGHBORS with COMPASSION!"

Mr. Rogers' channel thumbnails would look like one of those full-completion video-gaming channels that involve a controller-holder, sometimes along with a confused roommate or neighbor, logging hour #73 of a 20hr RPG because they can't figure out how to get a platinum on the last minigame. There'd be a blurry background of the handpuppets and two headshots of Mr. Rogers smiling and his guest freaking out. I think the titles would be fairly tame, though; I'm imagining, "Another Day in the Neighborhood #112 | An Unexpected Guest, Learning to Tie Shoes"

Now, where it gets fun is imagining that Lamb Chop could have the same setup. "Lamb Chop & Friends #52 | She's Unstoppable, So Much Blood, Can We Unsummon Lamb Chop?"

Moldy junk food even.

Perhaps... their parents could be good role models?

[-] bitofhope@awful.systems 21 points 1 month ago

What the hell do people think they're adding to the conversation with quips like this? We were talking about how social media personalities should be better role models. Should parents be good role models? Yes, but that's only relevant to the discussion, if you mean to imply it's not a problem that social media entertainers are bad ones, and that parents being good ones just solves any issues.

didn't you know? kids exist in perfect social isolation taking social cues only from their parents and no other information or humans they have contact with! and it's not like parents have issues either, right? I mean who'd have issues and then go pop out some kids?! madness
