    it’s been a hard day making TikTok posts so I’m gonna drive around in my luxury car without my seatbelt on and film with my left hand and maybe probably not hit anyone while I check if the angle looks good

      You flubbed the seatbelt & cam hand, but didn’t even mention the stupidly low seat that decreases visibility over their dash and, by extension, the hood & front of the vehicle.

      Just sayin’. We should all be more aware of this too-often lethal geometry born of “cool” laziness. 🥲

      Also no way could they be filming with their left hand, the angle is way off unless they’re holding a stick or tripod. It looks like someone in the passenger seat is filming.

      They are filming/photographing with their right hand. The image is flipped. Or they are in the most American-looking town in England.

      Is there a point to all this judgment or…?

      Oh no! The economic reality for young people requires them to sell themselves as influencers to make a living because we don’t have actual, useful employment any more. Better make sure I cast my judgment on those who found some modicum of success doing so, so that the world and I know that I’m better than them! /s

        I don’t care what anybody does to make money unless it puts someone else at risk. A car is a method of transportation, but more importantly, a weapon. Focusing on getting the right angle or right clip or whatever for your meme puts other people at risk as you control a 5500 pound piece of metal. My criticism is on the choice of using a moving vehicle as a recording studio.
