MODERATORS
Then you should remember these days more accurately.
People make social media posts instead of geocities pages these days. Content creators are more like the people who used to sell content online than they are the average chucklehead who made a geoshitty page.
People you see with lots of Twitter followers are exactly akin to people who ran pages on free hosting websites. When they link their merch, it's exactly like how blogs and shit would sell merch.
Youre looking at this with glasses so rosy they're completely blinding.
So should you. Remember when ads were just static banners? No, you don't. Don't pick a point in time that fits your bias and ignore the rest, mate. Might turn your glasses as brown as your take is shite.
Word up.
word up!
Hahaha ah damn. You got me good with that, I gotta watch that movie again.
