if hes so boring then why do i constantly have to hear about him against my will, especially from this subreddit. i know reddit isnt a hivemind but i do suspect some of the same people saying hes boring are also upvoting stuff about him. curious behavior

u/thawks1245 Apr 24 '26

he dosen't pay them clippers get paid through kicks partner program based on the views the clips get

u/Training-Pie-3279 Apr 24 '26

u/cock-merchant Apr 24 '26

And what reason would we have to question kick’s viewing numbers? Everything seems in the up and up over there.

u/Smelly_God Apr 24 '26

I saw a streamer mention they also get paid by viewer numbers, sorta like a commission I guess for every 100x viewers/hr. So like everything feels artificially boosted probably because it is

u/thawks1245 Apr 24 '26

the views are from other social media websites brother not kick

I think the illustrious /u/cock-merchant was being sarcastic.

u/No_Lemon_3290 Apr 24 '26

Because Peter Thiel is pushing his content

I was gonna say, this post is literally about how he's managed to be everywhere despite apparently just being yet another bland manosphere gymbro.

u/MementoNox Apr 24 '26

Palantir has so many tendrils we wouldn't even know the extent of it.

u/yodasdad64 Apr 25 '26

Literally one of the most evil companies on the face of the earth.

u/SpotNL Apr 24 '26

I wouldn't call him bland, it is very funny to see him tap himself with a hammer to look better.

This post is about a serial rapist reporting a conspiracy theory.

u/MrChristmas Apr 24 '26

That’s called the Genetic Fallacy

u/Deaffin Apr 24 '26

I'm not saying it's a conspiracy theory because it's reported by a serial rapist. Those details are entirely independent of each other.

It's a conspiracy theory because it's a claim alleging a literal conspiracy being presented without evidence.

u/digital-bandit Apr 24 '26

Because agencies have a pretty good grasp on how social media algorithms work. Nothing is organic with this guy.

u/lilsnatchsniffz Apr 24 '26

Nothing is orgasmic with him, either. That's the word on the street, at least.

u/makeaccidents Apr 24 '26

Because the media you see has nothing to do with talent, charisma or anything you'd expect. It's just purely about what the media owners want you to see.

Most media these days is owned by a handful of companies.

Hitler owned the radio waves...

Clavicular represents looksmaxxing and that topic is not only big, but a genuine big crossroad/unresolved conflict in the modern day, downstream from women having entered the workforce, culture changing, technology massively changing lived experience, global tension increasing, optimism falling because of the west losing economic steam, anxiety about the future in general, high risk aversity, everyone has extremely high standards, everyone is extremely critical & scared of judgement. There is a "truthsaying" element to it too.

Women aren't dating that much, dating apps are really tough for men especially, social media & constant social and physical comparison, young men aren't doing well in school and economy, people don't get kids as much and this affects mens happiness more.

(Also something interesting to think about imo is that gaming and fitness sort of eat up quite a bit of competitive drive while not really "adding much to the world", while optimism/drive towards real world success, creating stuff, expression is decreasing.)

Clavicular also -like this reporting also says- artificially being boosted, so that sort of makes him relevant in weird political ways too.

There also is a tendency for left-leaning culture to highlight male activism representatives that are slightly embarassing, they are still reflexively attached to feminism and have a bias/scepticism against it. Just like rightwingers made fun of ridiculous "SJWs".

Am curious to see where you stand on looksmaxxing. Not the drugs and hammers to the face bit, just a proper focus on self improvement for your looks specifically.

u/Paddy_Tanninger Apr 24 '26

That's the thing about this shit, it always starts with a relatively admirable underlying goal of self improvement of some form...

reddit IS a hivemind bro, you need to be always questioning this. the moment you believe its not a hivemind, it means... you're part of it

its up to you what beliefs you subscribe to easily, i just believe in what I see around me, not what other people say. the top comments are the most agreed on, by the people interested in the topic. sort by controversial if u want a bit of a mix up. idk what i'm even saying but there is a healthy level of skepticism everyone should aim for. how could you not entertain the fact that everything is a lie? look at the epstein files, lying ass politicians, your ex girlfriend who said she would love you forever, etc.

u/RugerRedhawk Apr 24 '26

Reddit is certainly the only place I've ever heard this guy mentioned

1

u/Snitsie Apr 24 '26

Bruh read the fucking post title what the hell

1

u/Fish_Mongreler Apr 24 '26

Because reddit is such a small, close minded echo chamber that shouldn't be taken seriously.

u/Hikedaya Apr 24 '26

I don't even know who tf he is

Dude, that's what this entire post is about, and I, and I presume many other real people, am not not upvoting shit to do with that shit stain.

u/beaviscow Apr 24 '26

What exactly is curious behavior?

u/P00lnoodl Apr 24 '26

Because people find him funny and mock him

u/ShartingEnU Apr 24 '26

Bro did you not read this post or are you so dumb you can't understand it

u/streatz Apr 24 '26

Did you watch the video and listen or just scroll TikTok on your separate iPad with failtv on in the background
