      Yeah this is not real tho

      For some reason she gets quoted with opinions that she never even expressed.

      People are using her to make their opinions popular. She’s, dare I say, a victim in this situation.

      I think its more down to how she seized on her moment of fame to build a brand and try to scratch a better living for herself

        I’m willing to bet that none of the original hawk tuah video was a spur of the moment organic dude with a phone interviewing drunk chick’s on TikTok video. Shit was 1000% staged and she had already been signed. Still. Get that money.

        It just ruined cinematography. Now if you have any bokeh effect whatsoever, people think you’re a professional. It’s destroyed indie filmmaking as a gig.

      She got picked up by an agency that went full tilt on promotion. There are an enormous number of man hours being expended to get you to care about what this person has to say. No small feat, when you consider how many people feel the urge to post and repost this shit.
