So you beautiful bastards. You're watching the Philip DeFranco show, and we got a lot of news to talk about today. So hit that like button to let YouTube know you like these big daily dives into the news. But the first thing that we're going to talk about in big internet social media drama news, I want to talk about this, this internet backlash cycle we saw with Hassan Piker this weekend. Because it was really interesting to see how it evolved. And while obviously I hope this is the case with any story that we cover on this show,

I'd love if you reserved your comment on this one specifically, if you have a comment to share until I finish the story.

Because the way this whole situation started was with this specific clip of him going viral,

which several captioned a variation of him saying that streaming is harder than a

real job. Yes, a real job can be gruesome. A real job can make you very tired, but a real job

doesn't suck the soul out of you, you know what I mean? In the same way that nine hours of streaming

absolutely will. So unsurprisingly, this blows up. Tons of people saying he is completely out

touch with the real world. Content creators are so fucking annoying. People saying they would

kill to have a job and lifestyle like his instead of making coffee for $12 an hour. Specifically

saying this guy makes shit up for nine hours a day and his commute to work is walking into

his fifth bedroom and his $3 million mansion. But this is others defending him saying, hey, this clip was taken

out of context. And adding, I get that expecting the needs on this dumbass site to understand the nuance of

how different jobs drain you in different ways is insane, but oh well, this is something that

Hassan addressed himself explaining. I was talking about how much a nine-hour stream eats away at my

social battery and how I can't socialize after comparing it to my sales job before.

I recognize how fortunate I am every day. But then including clips of context where he says,

no, no, no, no, no, no, social battery-wise, unless you're in retail, unless you're in

retail, it's very different. A real job does not expend your social battery in the same way as someone who did a sales job,

a real job, okay?

I'm telling you, as someone who did both,

like nine hours of constant performance and people pleasing paps you out from social scenarios.

After nine hours of that, I could probably do physical labor.
