The Futility of Donating to Wealthy Streamers
This meme uses a visual metaphor to comment on the practice of sending financial donations to popular internet streamers. By showing a hand pouring water from a bottle back into the vast ocean, the image suggests that individual contributions to already successful content creators have a negligible impact, similar to adding a small amount of water to a massive body of water. The post highlights the ongoing debate regarding why viewers choose to financially support wealthy public figures, contrasting the donor's intent with the perceived lack of necessity for such contributions.
That’s an ocean, not a stream.
People are stupid.
Same as with basketball/sport players - they are dumb as fuck and already have money. Stop making dumb people famous!!!!!
Why even donate at all? Do something more productive with your hard earned money instead of throwing it at a screen
that's democracy too
If you have enough income, why not support someone whose content you enjoy and want to support? Same goes for gaming, music, movies,..
They like the content?
For attention mostly
Loneliness, gratitude, attention.. But the highest reason is that they feel bonded as if the streamer knew who they are.. at least on subconscious level. Similar to OF, it's not about explicit contet, internet is full of that for free, its about false bond. We humans are weird.
Because people are allowed to spend the money they earn however they want even if it’s on stupid shit.
