It's all about promoting his brand, he doesn't give a shit about helping anyone.

America is the king of corporate slop though. That's obviously not all America is, because the USA is a huge and extremely diverse nation full of all kinds of people. Many parallel cultures, many parallel cuisines etc. But America is the king of shareholder capitalism, which makes it the king of slop. Sorry. It's not your fault, it's the billionaires doing this to ya.

@VLADPowder Well, your typical American Generation Alpha kid idolizes influencers, so...

America is the land of unbridled capitalism; lobbying, regulatory capture, $500,000 medical bills, at-will employment, shareholders having everyone by the balls. Nutrition-free corporate slop is as American as food gets.

I hate to say it but mainstream American culture kinda is "corporate slop". And with an obesity rate of like 35% you know a lot of people are eating this nonsense on the regular (fatties be snacking). And I know that makes me sound like a smug European. Don't worry, I'm from the UK and we're also fat lazy idiots who commit crimes against nutrition. We're basically America Jr. The USA is obviously a huge country with all kinds of brilliant, talented people in it... it's just mainstream culture kinda sucks rn. It's the alternatives where the brilliance lies.

@Jump-Shack Energy drinks are crack cocaine for zoomers. Do yourself a favor and cut them out of your diet. If you gotta have caffeine then drink coffee and not artificially sweetened corn syrup slop.

@bo-xmusic6940 "Influencers" are for the most part sociopaths and I wish teenagers would stop worshipping them Celebrity worship is bad enough but "influencers" are somehow even more narcissistic and empty-headed. It's like they think they're the only people that matter and everyone else only exists to make/keep them famous

@bo-xmusic6940 "Influencers" are almost all bad people. Narcissistic and shallow. A reflection of what culture has become. What ever happened to that TikTok ban? We need it, now.
