So that's part of the reason why they do the fucking blood sport.

where it's like Dean and Parker will bring in these ignorant Trump supporters and just absolutely eviscerate them.

And their audience loves it.

And they're like, here's a galaxy.

Here's this.

Here's that.

And I was adding up on time.

And I was just like, these guys are making $1,000 an hour fucking doing this.

Damn, not much.

Man, you know what's crazy?

Is if someone comes on there, and they call them out, and they say, you're just doing this to make money, yada, yada, yada.

It's like reverse psychology.

The fucking viewers love it.

And they'll start sending them like direct things, 25 bucks, 50 bucks, 100 bucks.

Like it literally goes off.

And I'll be honest with you.

So there's agencies that handle TikTok lives.

And a lot of the big creators are with these agencies.

And so I really am starting to wonder if some of these people going up in these lives and being the opposition, if those aren't people coming from the fucking agency to drive the engagement and drive the fucking monetization.

If I'm an agency and you're my creator and I'm getting a percentage of how much revenue you generate from TikTok live, I am watching it obsessively.
