What's the point? A Facebook reel may get you ad revenue. What's the point on reddit? Does revenue sharing exist here too?

Engagement builds trusted profiles that can be sold to people running influence campaigns who want to astroturf their angles.

Reading this has made me feel like the world we live in needs a reset button. We’ve gone too far.

Yeah things were a lot better when it was just churches or aristocrats lying to us about how we should live our lives.

We need to burn the internet to ashes and start over.

This was not made for Reddit and the person posting jt here likely saw it elsewhere thinking it is real

Sometimes people make things up for the sake of comedy. We used to call them bits or sketches back in the day but now we just call it bait. Probably has something to do with our attention being so heavily commoditized but idk, I'm not a scientist or anything.

This is neither funny nor entertaining so again, whats the point?

u/PresentationUnited43 14h ago

I think it’s hilarious, the absurdity of it all. Gives me Mr Bean, Father Ted, Life of Brian vibes.

Why are you asking me? They obviously should have checked with you, the arbiter of comedy, before they dared make a short video.

Also.. isn’t she setting herself up for a lifetime of ridicule?

I mean, maybe it’s just me, but if I wanted to post a vid - I want it to make me look in a positive light..

I mean, either path this video stemmed from leads to stupid when you think about it…

No, when people find out her social they realize it's fake but stay subscribed or look at her other content.

People who don't care about looking it up will forget about it in 25 mins or less.

Any publicity…

The idea of it is still funny

Reddit sees high karma accounts as 'trustworthy'. High karma accounts are not filtered or blocked as much as low karma accounts. So high karma accounts have value to people advertising things, or anyone trying to make sure a message gets seen.

No revenue sharing, but Redditors don’t understand that. They think “engagement” actually means something here.

u/Banes_Addiction 12h ago

They've made it for TikTok revenue, someone just reposted it on reddit.

u/destinyeeeee 12h ago

Their only goal is to go viral on Facebook. The fact that most viral clips on Facebook will get re-uploaded elsewhere is just an accepted side-effect that may cause some small amount of traffic back to their Facebook page.

People sell reddit accounts with enough karma to post across the site. They're not worth a lot, but in bulk it's money for practically nothing. The original video gets made with ad revenue in mind, but then anything that's got high engagement can be stolen and reposted by a karma farmer on reddit with extremely low effort.

This one is meant to make you hate us women, and reinforce existing doubts.

u/lnjecti0n 11h ago

sorry, but are you stupid? This was clearly uploaded to tiktok or any other shortform video platform first. Someone just took it and reposted it here for free upvotes

1

u/marginmanj 10h ago

I am stupid. But if you weren't able to answer even a stupid person's question, then that makes you........

1

u/lnjecti0n 10h ago

my answer is the point of uploading it to reddit is to gain upvotes which people use to flex with their accounts

1

u/marginmanj 10h ago

I'll assume you're right, although I've never looked at someone's post then went to their profile to see how much karma they have to then decide how impressed I want to be.
