TikTokers Are Getting A Harsh Reality Check | Asmongold Reacts 

@@xplodegg that would be epic lol

A kid would be too much of a bother for Asmon, the kid would probably crawl on all fours around the house ocasionally appearing on the stream background like a wild animal hissing at him for his fast food leftovers and sleep on a self built trash nest

He has a couple people who farm mounts on his account

*Damn good deal*

Timmy, did you do your chores? I am logging in right away, father. Please don't beat me.

So you're describing every twitch streamer out there. Same with asmond. Dude's sits in a filthy room and talks about shit. Very sustainable

@@JamTrackWorld not when your boss is an algorithm.

clown world

@@JamTrackWorld The exceptions don't make the rule.

Some cheap brands do hire them to promote their rip off products though

good one

​@@gingerbill128 ayo

you can tell ASsmon doesn't have a daughter and prob will never have a gf lol

Praise the sun

Gold😂😂😂

surprisingly for me tiktok videos are much more educational than instagram reels. Of course it depends on what you watch. tiktok algorithm is on crack.

I never understood the appeal, it might be interesting if you have the attention span or memory of a gold fish.

@@BillClinton228 I watch content from time to time. But it's usually stuff like, where to find X weapon or gun in whatever game I am playing. Things I want a short, quick answer to. I just never understood how you make a platform like that profitable... I'd honestly love to go back to the time of Nintendo Power and EGM.

Yeah, I am not installing that. I understand the dangers of this short content. It is designed to hijack your dopamine and keep you scrolling for hours with your brain turned off. Like once every 20 videos you see something actually interesting. I much rather choose the content I watch, see the length of a video and know the time commitment required to watch it. These Tik Tok kids just scroll through algorithm generated content 12 hours a day.

thank you for being once more the voice of the people, turtle chad

🐢🤙

👏🏻

A bold claim to say you speak for everyone.

@@Gelondil So you support those TikTokers ?

Asmon said something that is VERY important even when I dont know why it happens. You can't even remember what you see on tiktok and if you do, you'll sleep over that knowledge in no time. It's weird, it's like specifically made for you to throw away your time with almost nothing to gain in return. Damn you even accelerate the decay of your phone battery... for nothing. TikTok it's made to burn your time and your brain.

Jup

i've watched Asmon try "Getting over it" for 2 hours straight... not much different than doomscrolling on tiktok

@@jerowns At least getting over it had a conclusion. Doom scrolling doesn’t and never ends. Might add as well that at least you managed to dedicate your attention to one video, the worst part of doom scrolling is how nothing lasts more than a few seconds shortening attention spans.

15-30

Yeah, like filming themselves for 27 minutes instead.

Oh, the humanity!

I know, right? I get wanted to make money off of what you're good at, but what utility does TikTok have? You can post full movies, documentaries, etc. on RU-vid. You can hold online events, promote products, among other things through livestreaming platforms like Twitch? What does a platform based around short-form content really offer? What value does it have beyond giving you short meme videos that people do generic reaction videos for at best?

​@@gajiji2731kekw.

Like asmongold or people on twitch, kick, and any other bullshit that you losers watch ad nauseam and then believe that you are in a community because you are in an echo chamber. At least they are doing something. Not seeking attention on youtube. A bunch of people that have no moral consistency.

Same here! That's also mostly the audience I make my videos for.

Congratulations

I spend enought time here that I just used vpn to buy Indian RU-vid premium for 20$ for year

RU-vid premium 🎉

​​@@ChristinaMagma you actually give youtube money for taking away peoples 1st amendment rights. _What an incredible thing to be proud about._

So you are a leech

Hey DickHammer Tiktok is owned by a Singaporean guy

Senator, i am Singaporean.

All companies in Chyna are owned by the government.

Tiktok uploaders arent employees. They arent even contractors really.

Nah it reflects the overinflated sense of value on the platform. They're being paid fairly

80% of tik tok is the same voice overs on 10 second videos. Its the fast food of social media and thats fine. We love fast food

@@MrAccesspro I worked with live streamers, so I heard their actual voices. That was slightly less soul destroying than the having to deal with those other voices. *shudder*

@@Mr.Glitch I'm glad you survived.

The fact that you worked for them~ my dude

@@jamestomlin5525 I thought I was helping streamers realise their dreams. I was very wrong. Now I just help people with all that info for free, as an unemployed person.

9orn, short attention span videos, narcissism engine, concentrated promiscuity, fake intimacy, commercialism, meme's, all forms of degeneracy, political agendas, echo chambers, atomization of individuals, and entertainment dopamine hits

the sad part is that RU-vid and the internet as a whole has plenty of content to learn from, but instead TikTok and memes/pranks dominate the feeble minded

I mean it's done the former too, ofc dumb people still exist, but overall it's had a very positive effect

You forgot Brilliant, MagellanTV, and Curiosity Stream

Blame china's thirst for information..

That animal

what an absolute bastard

i reported the video already

I am holding a candle light vigil for your dog right now.

Is your dog dead?

At the very least give them a fighting chance. There's degeneracy in every corner. Even in public schools. It takes a culture of morals and standards to push it back.

@@smallestgoober9399 They have the tools to fight back, they're just too lazy to use them and i've seen them complain about it. Learning how to use an age restriction app? Too much work. Checking their kid's social media? Too much work. From time to time getting involved in the online games their kid plays to see the people they interact with? Too much work, and the list could go on. I've seen even housewives that don't have a job say this things. Every era has different challenges for parenthood and the online space is the one in 2023, but we can't expect everyone to be concerned about kids that aren't theirs, its not fair. They had the children, it's their responsability and theirs alone.

@@ozarazil5745 The sad reality is that a large number of parents view their children as accessories to their lives, this is true EVERYWHERE not just in western countries. If instead people stopped popping kids out they dont actually love, the world would be a less shitty place, maybe more empty though.

do you want to live in a world run by kids raised by tiktok? at some point when everything around a child is degenerate only the very best parents (usually upper class) will have children not broken by China

100% no one here has kids

Your argument was valid up to like 2010. Now your kid probably knows more about tech and the internet than the people who built the internet

I'd like add to this that OPs argument would be valid if there wasn't red tape involved in what age ranges can see what and the app it self allows kids as young as 13. Plenty of parents are thinking of kids but if they can't trust the app that has been cleared by the red tap many apps have to go through then what's the point of even requiring age ranges outside of what's straight up illegal?

Underrated comment. We’re the products now.

Amounts to the same at the end. Less ads mean less money for the tiktokers which means they move to other platforms and you cant data mine them too much.

It appears we cant go back to the past

No I was dead in the 90s

​@@Lemantrano, but we CAN go back to the future

Nah, nostalgia is a b.

If there was a one way portal back to the 90s I'd leap through it head first.

It’s honestly insane to me that Asmon doesn’t understand this. Plus some of the people performing the softcore porn are literal children themselves. In this age of technology we’re living in, it’s so incredibly naive to believe that parents have 100% of the power in stopping what their kids do and see on the internet. I was a kid using the internet at one point… I would know.

@@SawseeSauce he was raised by a none caring mother his morals are fucked up

Exactly I don't expect the world to cater to my kid but I can't monitor them 100% of the time so when I allow them on "family friendly or child friendly" apps and all of a sudden he comes to me saying there is inappropriate content like said softcore porn yeah that's an issue.......

Asmon is smarter than the average bear but he is oblivious to some stuff which is understandable . Its good to know what you don't know , Asmon hasn't mastered that yet.

@@gingerbill128 don't give him too much credit

Yeah tiktok is pretty crap

Their*

And that's not even to mention child predation on the platform. Upper Echelon covered this a while ago, but you'd have streams hosted by underaged girls where predators use coded or indirect language to get them to go off platform, and/or perform suggestive acts for them. I've also heard of plenty of TikTok trends where people splice in illegal content to what they're doing, like gore videos, child porn, or the like. Due to TikTok's nature, you're bound to get pretty screwed up stuff. And unlike RU-vid, TikTok is designed to funnel you through short-form content quickly that's usually just for humor or some other general purpose. I can watch a long-form gaming video on RU-vid, and get recommended other long-form gaming videos in the same subject space. However, what do you get recommended when you watch some short-form joke or meme? Even on RU-vid, if you watch meme content not tied to a specific franchise (e.g., memes about a new game or something) you're going to go down a rabbit hole where you get random videos that are hard to search for, yet somehow get quite a few views.

was juuuust thinking that lol

based

I was literally just thinking the same thing.

Also thanks Twitter too for keeping those looney in...

@@ZagiNoa let me guess - orange man bad syndrome? Elon musk is Hitler?

Cause virtue signaling

Some thing about under age and drinking laws maybe. Encouraging under 21's to drink beer is not a good look and illegal.

Asmon's take on companies not advertising on lewd content is a very American centric viewpoint. While most in the U.S. may not care about that, there are other countries that do care and global companies like Coca Cola and Apple are not going to risk damaging their reputation in foreign markets. This is partially why stuff why ESG exists; Companies have to abide by an amalgamation of every country's laws and practices or they lose out on a ton of money.

@@anenigma8378 He asked why they cared, that is not American centric just because non Americans are the ones that care, the question is WHY not who.

Really hope so, they've somehow made self-improvement a cringeworthy topic

Influencers are just intern or contract advertisers.

influencers are just celebrities. America loves celebrity worship, and we aren’t gonna abandon it now. and that’s why people are watching asmon react to shit like the johnny depp trial

​@@RedolentSporeSelf-help books have been doing that for a while, mate

Nah mate, they will just become even more extreme versions of the shills for companies we see today. Their success will come from replacing all other marketing.

Your smartphone came with TikTok and IG preinstalled?

That probably because of all the rules and regulations when children are involved. For instance if you say you are advertising to children there's a ton more red tape compared to saying you advertise to adults. And then there's issue of collecting data on children. Legally sites like RU-vid or tiktok aren't suppose to collect data from children. So showing a graph with that data can get them in hot water. In short, THINK OF THE CHILDREN. joke aside it's a very murky area that effectively force these companies to basically pretend children don't exist on their site.

In some ways it may be harder, but being a good parent is being an active parent. In their younger years it’s not hard to be a part of their social life and maintain some sort of control over what content they’re allowed to consume. As they approach adolescence parental controls on their devices are easy to set up, and imo if they have the intelligence to figure their way around that, they probably have the maturity to consume certain content. The problem is a lot of parents just hand their children smartphones or tablets and let them entertain themselves without taking an active role in their kids’ leisure time.

@@DarthDragmire yeah when i was 10 my parents put a password on our PC and i looked up and figured you can change it in admin account :D but yeah just ban certain websites on the router

Most parents have never been attentive. In the 50s kids with negligent parents would smoke and drink; now they watch Tiktok.

Well every era has it's challenges for parents, in the 1900 it was drugs and alcohol and in the 2000 it's the internet . Gotta stand up to the challenge if they want to be parents in 2023

Then don't be a parent.

“We see you pooping through your front AND back camera 😈” American Dad had an episode based on this

Dumb people ... aka US-Americans...

How are the kids getting punished at all? The PARENTS are getting punished because of the parents lack of responsibility. How Is a kid being punished because they saw some ass and an apple ad within 15 seconds of each other?

Also, your solution is to punish the entire world because of some kids parents? Fuck that.

@@whenimmanicimgodly4228 I guess we can agree to disagree on what ‘punishing the world’ means. I think given how toxic social media in general has been for the world, proper regulation of the content on it is pretty important and has widespread benefits for everyone. What exactly do you think the big benefit for society is from having kids be exposed to sexual content, red-pill bullshit and divisive liberal and conservative propaganda constantly? And how do you see things going in the future? Do you want the platforms to have no obligation to limit deepfakes, hateful and sexual content, especially when it’s being shown to children? The parents aren’t being punished for their lack of oversight, it’s the kid who’s being influenced by the content. It will disproportionally affect kids who arent lucky enough to have parents who actually supervise the content they’re consuming. Really don’t understand your point. My solution is not punishing the world. I’m fairly pro most content being allowed on these platforms, but I’m not pro it being shown to kids.

same here but with italian

Its just giving you the types of advertisers that they make the most money off of in your region. I can pretty much as to why that is,lol. Its literally anyone that pays at this point. So all the ads look like the old papersback alley classifieds sort of ads.

​@@AdamFontenet-iy3tb those aren't mutually exclusive 9/11 beard

People celebrate those that make them feel good instead of those that make their lives possible. People would care if all the sewage workers went in strike, just saying.

@hillehai I know, and I'm sure asmon knows as well. Wouldnt want him to ruin his career over this, This is mostly for the people who come in and actually think boycotting doesn't work

Thats such a shit attempt at a gotcha lol

You can teach them it’s not worth their time

Try Google ads too. They start slow but as it gets smarter and smarter you get way better targeting.

youtube shorts? clip channels on youtube? still no need for tiktok

@@kliersheed I didn't say you don't have to use those lol, I'm just saying it's an added bonus, considering you'd be pulling engagement from a different audience.

Not all of them are laughing. Who cares?
