The Big TikTok Bagel Drama 

Goddamm, racists didn't even occur to me until he mentioned them. For a blissful moment, I lived in a world where something cool happened and nobody ruined it by being bigots.

I can't believe people actually got upset over some guy jokingly gatekeeping a bagel. He seemed to have a good sense of humor about the situation and I took his "rude" response as being lighthearted since he's admitting he's taking the L. How does anything about this situation provoke you to the point of being racist?

Honestly a large group harassing someone and being racist over someone not wanting a bagel anymore sounds like a parody. There's plenty of real issues you gotta take a stance on but I don't understand how people can get so riled up over the tiniest of things and not see the results as disproportionate.

We're just gonna skim past "bagel tours" like that's a normal everyday thing??????

I swear some people would find any excuse to be racist; like its lowkey just a bagel bro chill 😭

ive followed the guy who was jokingly gatekeeping a bagel for a few years and that is just his humor. when i first saw it i found it funny bc it was so clearly a joke. i feel like people are thinking way too much about his video and his person, its a bagel

Jordan was joking about people doing the same thing with mountains, but as someone who is in a couple hiking groups that sh!t totally happens. Someone posted a really nice pond spot and outright refused to tell anyone where it is until some rando who knows the area said where

Bagel topography is but one of the many ways that petty secrets shall be rendered available to all who seek a good food.

calling people homophobic and racist slurs over a joke is crazy like this mf just likes his bagels its nyc too this mfs bagel price gonna skyrocket

I have never felt as spiritually close to another human being as I did with Jordan at 2:47

thanks for posting this when i’m starving😡

it started as a joke that ppl decided to take serious

3mins in & the word bagel has lost all meaning 😂

Im gonna be real, i think the bagel tour guide is a snitch. But seriously i dont think the geoguesser guy shouldve given full details abt op's life to his entire audience, that freaks me out so much

While I do think it was weird to gatekeep a bagel, I don't get bullying the guy especially when it turns racist!

I love the outro theme song, but every single time I watch one of these and it slowly starts in the background, I look around the room and pause the video to try to figure out where that weird plopping sound is coming from

Honestly, I do think it was all supposed to be done for good fun and no harm was actually intended but not only did this guy get his bagel place doxxed and have tons of harassment(a lot of it racist) directed towards him but his school, address and daily routine were also publicly shared to hundreds of people. Idk about you but knowing that dozens of racist people who are willing to get mad at you over a beagle have your address would make me pretty uneasy, not to mention he can never get his favourite bagel ever again. Making a jokey tik tok about gatekeeping a bagel is not an invitation to be doxxed

These bagel ad people are really thinking out of the box.

I saw the original video and thought it was funny, can't believe it's become a drama. Enough of a drama that sad boyz are commenting on it 😂

Demi's a fucking legend! I love him, lemme go watch this full episode

BAGEL?! 🔳 🕷️🕸️

Okay I’m not tryna be too serious about the same comment like this one: at 4:18. But if you guys are being semi-serious, it’s because other people can do this… rainbolt has an actual interest in this, and studies google maps and countries like he’s studying for a college entrance exam. Do you think other people can’t do this? A lot of people just aren’t interested nor have the time.

I've seen someone use artifacts from the camera to guess i think Ghana?? something about how the sun refracted with the lens. Wild.

Love yall

dude: you'll never find this rain: done dude: surprised pikachu face

Certified bagel moment

I can't remember the last time I had a bagel.

I really do understand wanting to keep your favorite place to eat a secret, like to me that's just a funny relatable thing to say and not necessarily a challenge. Like for some people TikTok is just another online journal where they can share their random thoughts and then occasionally it'll blow up and you'll get 10k followers and 1k racists in your inbox. It would've been funnier if Rainbolt had it named after like, the guy but the whole thing has a sour taste in it once the accusations of "gatekeeping" came out. Its bagels, chill

This is an awesome story outside of people harassing him

Demi!!!!!!

The thing is...Rainbolt naming the sandwich after himself contextualizes the whole situation in a bit of a...weird way. He took this guy's joke as a personal challenge and then proceeded to follow a tip, then contact the restaurant and ask them to read the receipts of that day so he could find out what's in the sandwich according to the other guy....so he could've even found out the guy's real name if the worker was gullible enough to give it to him. It just reaches a weird very 'oh shit this is real life' level when Rainbolt, who is famous for being good at recognizing dirt or trees in geoguesser, an online game, stops fucking around and puts his private investigator hat on and spends an insane amount of time tracking down this bagel place that this guy could live right across the street from. Suddenly this fun game turns into something a bit too real for my comfort. Maybe I'm being hyperbolic here, but I don't blame the guy being a little spooked when Rainbolt is demonstrating that he's kinda capable and able to find someone and where they hang out or even where they live if someone posts a silly video teasing about where they are. I'm sure he just loves what he does, but renaming the sandwich after himself to shame the guy, although he meant it as a joke, kinda feels like he's bullying him a bit. Naming it after the other guy would've made it seem like it was a bit friendlier, naming him after himself felt trolly and a little antagonistic. I'm not surprised a bunch of people found this story, saw what happened and decided to harass the guy over it.

Gilmore guys!

Wholesome moment ruined by racists. Vlassic internet moment

I just subbed

This just seems like how he jokes idk how people brought racism into it ngl just seemed like rainbolt snd the guy having fun

Demi 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

When are y'all gonna have skatie420 on?

Gatekeeping products and resources while bragging about them is crazy. This happens a ton in art communities too where people will mention a new brush setting they're hyped over or a great supplier, and when people ask for deets they refuse to share any information. I love when people find these gatekept sources and share them in response.

No they shouldn't have doxxed his bagel

Honestly shocked this hasn’t already somehow taken an antisemetic turn

This was obviously a sponsored ad from the bagel company. I don’t think someone would randomly announce that they’ve found the best bagel on earth, but they’re not telling anyone where it’s from. It just sounds like an ad. I think the bagel company reached out to rainbolt, and said “we’ll name a bagel after you if you can do this for us.” The other guy is either an employee or another sponsor. Then when all this blows up it’s a huge viral ad for the bagel. It’s genius marketing actually.

💀People gettng doxxed for tattoos, cakes, and now bagels??? ok that's enough internet for me for the night...what the absolute hell is tiktok on, because I wanna avoid it as much as possible.

Hehe first still

Promo*SM 😆

I just realized... That's my coffee table. Excellent taste 🤙

If u wanted to keep a place and a thing a secret maybe don’t taunt the fucking internet about it lmao ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ that being said though, absolutely no excuse to be racist at the guy. absolutely insane behavior
