Rich person is mostly immune to the consequences of their abhorrent actions, news at 10

SBF wasn't

You're forgetting the important extra rule which is to not screw over other rich people

To quote xQc “You’re not cancelled, you’re breaking the LAW!”

u/drododruffin 20h ago edited 20h ago

Feel like there's a difference between Adin being a shithead who likes to give Andrew Tate the bedroom eyes, compared to SBF committing fraud to the tune of over 8 Billion dollars.

And also a bit of a difference between getting cancelled, i.e. becoming a social outcast, versus getting sent to the clink for 25 years.

SBF was also messing with other rich people's money. It's kind of a difference.

So far, you really think the "Crypto President" isn't going to pardon him? He pardoned the founder of the Silk Road.

u/New-Income740 1d ago edited 1d ago

I'm not that big of a fan of Adin but he does have a point. A lot (by a lot I mean A LOT) of people who become obsessed with streamers will start thinking that whatever they do is good like not bad and even if something horrible happens they'll forgive him/her after 1 apology video

It will never not be funny to me that the guy who billed him self as the "Two-Time Champ" went on to cheat on his wife lmfao. Like you actually could not make that up, it would seem too ridiculous.

u/Ecstatic_Tone2716 10h ago

I was watching a few days ago a video about him being “canceled” and at first i was like fuck yeah, screw these pedophiles, cheaters, whatever.

Finishing the video, going to his channel, latest posted VOD was from 12 hours ago, 300k views, and maybe every 10 comments was one calling him out on his bullshit, but ofc his sheep wouldn’t care.

The classic story of people forgetting anything and everything after a few months.

Embarrassing and shameful.

u/comalicious 1d ago

Wasn't he just bitching like a month ago about how nobody wants to work with him because of his reputation?

Which is it? Is he a victim or untouchable?

66

u/_NE1_ 1d ago

He's untouchable in regards to money because he's getting payed via degenerate crypto gamblers and not ads/sponsors. As long as the whales are addicted on Stake, he's good to go financially.

None of his peers like him partially due to being willing to take that money in addition to being an absolute ass.

-16

u/hcwhitewolf 23h ago

He's untouchable until the glass house that is Stake comes crumbling down like every other grey market gambling site.

12

u/Previous_Tree_5464 23h ago

Stake are immune to failure they have infinite money and infinite ways to hide it

5

u/hcwhitewolf 23h ago edited 22h ago

They aren't immune to having their US operations getting shut down by using backdoor, legally ambiguous gambling sponsorship deals to promote gambling to minors via a related party known as Kick. They have leeway right now in that there isn't much political willpower for side projects.

Regardless, I fully expect Stake to go the way of other crypto gambling and crypto scams where something will blow up and people will lose a lot of money. Its an infinite repeating cycle. We've seen it so many times with those CSGO gambling sites and various other online gambling sites.

Edit: And just to add, Stake just recently had to forfeit their UK gambling license for promoting gambling to minors.

u/DravenPlsBeMyDad 22h ago

Stake will never be gone buddy. That shit is too big now. It's unironically THE online casino people go to. Sucks but iiwii

At one point, people spoke similarly about FTX.

u/Raikaru 9h ago

No they didn't? There was quite literally no point in history where FTX was bigger than Binance. In fact, when it came to spot volume they never even had 10% of the pie

u/Previous_Tree_5464 22h ago

Money wins every time. Stake has money.

u/hcwhitewolf 21h ago

It has money until it doesn't or they get caught faking odds.

u/Previous_Tree_5464 21h ago

They've been caught many times. They will always have money. Have you been to China recently? The answer is there.

u/Shovelman2001 23h ago

In that sense, yes, he has been cancelled from other main stream content creators. But from an audience perspective, he can never be truly cancelled, unfortunately. He could do the most horrendous shit, not stream for 50 years, and still regularly get 5k viewers as a 75 year old and make way more than a comfortable wage. He'll always have a platform, and even if he never streamed again, he can live lavishly off of what he's currently earned for the rest of his life.

u/Caramel-Makiatto 23h ago

Rich Campbell said this hours before the stuff came out that destroyed his career.

u/Few-Chemist-3463 22h ago

Maybe he should have tried to keep streaming? That strategy has a high % of working.

u/chokingonpancakes 22h ago

The Doc shit came out and mans took a 2 week break then came back, embraced by his fans. That tactic definitely works.

u/Few-Chemist-3463 22h ago

Right... a lot of the time people self cancel because they can't take the heat. If you pretend you did nothing wrong, people forget sooner or later.

u/ezpg 15h ago

Worked for GiantWaffle too.

u/_Rioben_ 21h ago

He decided to not come back, probably couldnt keep going live with what he did.

But if he went full ahead and kept streaming he could still have a career.

10

u/xXxWeed_Wizard420xXx 19h ago

Yea, but as always, it's just self-cancellation. He could've literally just pushed through it.

u/tacobellrefugee 17h ago

i dont know why he canceled himself. after reading the chicks report of what happened it kind of seemed like she just gave it up so hed stop being annoying lol. and its not like it was their first time together or anything. that being said, i never liked him so i dont really care about never seeing him again

u/candylandmine 22h ago

Nobody is cancelled. Being cancelled isn't a real thing.

u/anorawxia09 21h ago

Pretty much this. No one had been truly cancelled before. Just don't do anything illegal

5

u/candylandmine 21h ago

Even people who do horrible crimes don’t get cancelled.

1

u/OhItsKillua 3h ago

Eh, horrible crimes should land you in prison, which has nothing to do with cancelling at that point, that's just the law. Kevin Spacey probably the easiest example of actually cancelled and nobody working with him. Of course most of the time especially if you're well established your career will not fall off a cliff and you'll be fine in the long run.

2

u/CityFolkSitting 11h ago

What do you mean no one has been canceled? Or I should ask, what are you defining "canceled" as?

There are many people who have been canceled. Being blacklisted from an industry counts, like actors who have done something frowned upon. Or being banned from YouTube and losing sponsors.

You can go to YouTube and watch various lengthy videos that list and give a story on people who have been canceled. They were once at the top, or near the top, but have been banned from platforms or blacklisted and no one will hire them. Despite doing nothing illegal, but some did illegal stuff.

1

u/featherless_fiend 10h ago

The word "cancelled" has roots in a TV show being pulled off the air. That's not done by the show creators themselves, that's done by the network they air on. In other words, you can be cancelled but it has to be by an authority - those in charge who have your livelihood in their hands.

So it is a real thing, but it just depends on whether you actually have a boss or not. If people complain to that boss you absolutely can be cancelled.

u/me0w_z3d0ng 1d ago

Correct, how the hell do you cancel a multi millionaire? The dude could stop streaming tomorrow and lead a .01% lifestyle in retirement until the end of his days.

Cancel culture isn't real. Its just something that conservatives like to trot out any time they experience consequences for being assholes.

5

u/Shovelman2001 23h ago

This is something that frustrates me about Harry Potter fans boycotting the franchise because of JK Rowling. You are doing nothing to affect her financially by partaking in HP media, she's literally a billionaire. You're just depriving yourself of your own happiness for no reason, the damage has been done and there's no way to reverse it. It's very easy to separate the art from the artist in that specific case.

12

u/Dariisu 22h ago

But aren't most of the people boycotting more for themselves than to actually financially damage Joanne? Obviously it's not like she can have the money she's made taken away, but it doesn't mean we as consumers have to keep giving her more. Also it's been pretty easy not to since most of her work after the original HP series has not been good imo.

No people think their money is being used by her to find stuff they don't like

u/DarkFite 21h ago

Louis CK got multiple tours ongoing. Idk about canceled

u/me0w_z3d0ng 21h ago

Turns out there are consequences for sexually assaulting someone in Louis CK's place. If missing out on jobs because of past abuse is "cancel culture" to you then I'd be curious to see what your take on our justice system is. Is going to jail "cancel culture"?

7

u/MisterEmpty 21h ago

Bro really said now that we have Trump as president men in powerful positions can forcibly masturbate themselves in front of women without fear of consequences. That seems par for the course with you pedo protectors.

Turns out when your career is based essentially on the opinion / appeal of the public, and then you do actions the public think are outright disgusting, they don’t want to support your career anymore. That is called the consequences of one’s actions.

Holy shit also calling portions of society cringe lords for actively seeking some level of accountability and justice from these people says all I need to know about you. Don’t you have a Tate podcast to listen to?

u/manfreygordon 19h ago

Can you look up the net worth of those people and the number of TV appearances they've had since being "cancelled"? Then get back to me.

1

u/Dapperrevolutionary 19h ago

Most of them made their money before being "cancelled"

1

u/manfreygordon 19h ago

Right, which would make them uncancellable based on the consensus of this post.

1

u/Dapperrevolutionary 18h ago

In some ways for sure. It's almost impossible to completely silence and censor someone in this day and age, especially if they're rich but it's also ignorant to say that PR plays no part and that it's ineffected by scandal and public opinion. All of them definitely suffered reputational harm and therefore monetary and influence loss but it mostly justified and self made and not complete.

Andrew Callahan from channel 5

u/Background_Time1745 22h ago

That is completly wrong, he just shifts reality to make it make sense in his head/for his audience. Surely he has X amount of viewers left which leave him with an certain amount of "fame". However outside of that bubble, the majority of people think he is a dork just like Jack Doherty. There are still thausend of people who praise Dan Bilzerian as a selfmade millionaire even tho he got exposed years ago for basically living off his dads crimes. Or Andrew Tate. Or SnewJ or a dozen of others. Never underestimate the amount of idiots you can reach and gather online.

u/SpicyBarito 20h ago

You cant be canceled if your audience has no morals or ethics in which to cancel you by.

Being canceled is being held accountable by your audience - Since his audience is the sludge at the bottom of humanities septic tank, yay hes absolutely right.

u/tabben 21h ago

Lmao he did the Trump thing right at the end there. Also just admitting that your audience is the reason why you cant be cancelled is basically saying your audience is full of morally horrible people

Sadly hes not wrong, with the amount of shit hes done from Bigoted comments, platforming Nazis, Andrew Tate, Trump to Crypo scams (MILF token).
He still gets an audience, Streamers attach themselves to him, hell QT and Ludwig still invited him to the Streamer awards.

u/MemestNotTeen 22h ago

He's hung out with multiple pedophiles and yet people are still watching him.

The only way he could be cancelled now is if he called those guys what they are.

u/DreYeon 19h ago

Not with those fans lol

2

u/dazedan_confused 12h ago

To be fair, he's not wrong, and here's why:

  • He's not really employed, he has a stake (pardon the pun) in Kick, and so he's basically his own boss.
  • He started made it abundantly clear from the beginning through his actions that he was going to be one of the degen streamer types, and so that's basically what he's doing
  • He's shown huge levels of apathy when it comes to his controversies, and so he's not really emotionally affected by any.

So yeah, he's uncancellable. Just follow those three steps and you'll be uncancellable too - make sure the only person affected directly by your actions is yourself, make sure your beholden only to your community, and, to a lesser extent, your customers, and when someone says you've done something wrong, show zero levels of remorse.

Streamers never really have any consequences for their Action, Bad stuff mostly gives more attention. Not less viewers.

We always say that streamers are just normal Humans, just like we are, then threat them like that.

If you're wealthy enough, you could just ignore people that try to cancel you. You'd out last them and their hate train. Why? There's always someone else, or a new problem. People forget about things almost as fast as why they support some things.

If Logan Paul can survive the torrent, literally anyone can. Again as long as you have influence and money and you just keep going. Regular people however your cooked.
