âŚâŚ but the grumpy old men do understand this very well. This is a very old profession in a new, attenuated form.
Youâre alluding to her being a prostitute? Clearly donât understand it at all
Influencing in general. No specific claim regarding her except for her obnoxiousness.
I concur.
Knowledge is good.
A sizable portion of todayâs society admires these people and their behavior. Others like me try to avoid the social media influencer world as much as possible.
I guess the world will keep turning either way.
The world seems to be moving in the direction that was described in the movie âIdiocracyâ.
Holding your selfie stick and saying shockingly stupid stuff is not hard. Iâd be happy to get paid to do stuff like that, but instead, I choose to do real work.
Iâm sure her grind is unreal.
You young punks think vapid money making is beyond reproach?
Is âShut up, she makes big moneyâ your millennialâs defense against idiocy?
Yellow Tail probably has an unreal grind, too. Go drink it!
Social media is ruining society. This is just a small sliver of the carnage.
I think thatâs a cop out because it fails to address the substance of the content creation. First, I understand from some diligence after you and I chatted that she is followed largely for her storytime videos and podcasts in which she dramatically hyperbolizes situations sheâs been in for entertainment purposes. Not uncommon for entertainment. But I understand it can also be painful when itâs at your expense and so feel for the tour guide.
But I donât think you can see a bunch of people ragging on a situation like this and just write off the legitimacy of their observations because theyâre âjust grumpy old men [who] yell at sky for people making money in ways they donât understand.â
Radio shows and tv shows are similarly difficult to make. Based on your logic, we should celebrate Alex Jones for putting out damaging, divisive, factually incorrect information that influences people to treat others horribly, to believe in conspiracies and lies. Hey, there really is no doubt that Alex Jonesâs grind was out of this world, and I doubt most here appreciate how he developed so many income streams for his business.
Just because you work hard to make money doesnât mean you are entitled to respect, universally, for your behavior or your content. And when you intentionally live in the public eye and publish your life, youâre welcoming commentary and scrutiny.
And letâs face it. This is probably a windfall for her, and sheâll be trending and have a revenue bump from all of the publicity.
You nailed it.
What is âgrindâ in this context.
50% of Americans would vote for her. Sheâs telling it like it is.

What is âgrindâ in this context.
The ability to grind money out of as little content as possible.

youâre the only one I think thatâs thought deeply enough past the fact that sheâs an âinfluencerâ and her content.
the rest of the complaints here are typical âold man yells at skyâ
Like below.

Please explain what is a qualified influencer.
Lots of questions.
Is there an influencer school, and can you get a degree in influencing?
Is there an age limit?
Can you have too high an IQ?
Can you be an ugly influencer?
Do you have to be self nominated or can you recommend some else to influence?
That all being said - making the comparison to Alex Jones is far too extreme.I think that most of us can agree - a hour long vineyard tour is not high on many peopleâs lists of things to do when visiting wineries. Her response was of course incredibly brash, but nothing worse than in our text chains
Yeah, itâs not like sheâs making wines we love unaffordable.
How am I old man yelling at clouds???
Why has basic manners become something you need to ask for?
Or how about not being drunk 24 hours a day?
What would you do if this was your kid behaving this way???
