RE: Success porn: A Motivational Scam

in #steemit7 years ago

Know what I think is worse?

Make-the-world-a-better-place-inspirational porn.

I am referring to YouTubers and bloggers out there who intentionally video themselves down helping some homeless person.

The act itself may seem like it's an act that has risen humanity, but you can also tell it's contrived bullshit. Where are they after that?

I mean yo... homelessness exist and it's a problem, but always remember that they're people.

They're not objects for you to use just so you can get more views for your video or blog. They are also not there for you just to make yourself feel better for 10 minutes, and then you stop giving a fuck after that.

I may sound cynical, but inspirational porn is a real disease imo.

If you want to make a difference, then seriously do something about it. Create a movement or something and stop treating them as objects. They're people.

Good post @tarazkp. We truly think alike. I've wasted too much time and money on these "how to make money according to your passion" guys. They seriously stretch it to the lowest common denominator just to appear that they have a legit business, when really, they just want your money.

Lol. I wrote a whole post about that shit somewhere. The lighting, the angles, the quality... dirty bastards.

I KNOW RIGHT.
