Re: ALERT!!! Young US vlogger "almost trafficked" in Siem Reap
Having reviewed the footage and being someone who has dealt with shysters, hucksters and neer-do-wells for decades I believe this is what happened:
1. The tuk-tuk driver saw this enticing young fellow and gave him that finger-twisting-in-fist international symbol for "I want to f@ck you".
2. Unfortunately the handsome young chap did not seem too keen so the impoverished driver offered him some poontang, which utterly disgusted him.
3. The baffled driver finally offered the guy some drugs, but because he had to pay for them he was so annoyed that he made a YouTube video about being trafficked.
4. Everyone got AIDS, the world exploded in a giant fireball of guts and rotting juices and the YouTuber bought a Lamborghini.

Silence, exile, and cunning.

I didn’t realize when the tuk tuk was offering me drugs and whores he was actually trying to traffic me. They tried to traffic me a bunch of times when I just moved there, thank heavens I survived.

A 7 page discussion about a clickbait YouTube video title.
Not sure what's more depressing... the topic of discussion or the fact I've casually read most replies as I've followed said discussion.

Re: ALERT!!! Young US vlogger "almost trafficked" in Siem Reap
I personally find YouTube incredibly useful.
My favorite group, NiziU posts all their stuff there. Missus watches Cambodian Idol, and all the other shows on YouTube.
Without it, the only way to get this content would be either live in Japan or Cambodia.
I’ve had virtual experiences - the 10,000 dollar a day train, cat hotels, onsen, etc., that I would never have the chance.
And new skills and knowledge, like resetting the car maintenance screen.
There is fluff, but there is a lot of good.
It’s all in the eye of the beholder.
My opinions, of course.

Gen Z or whatever the fuck they're called. Cry about the planet, wokeness, etc but Greta Thunberg has something like a million followers compared to Kardashians 50 million. Go figure.

I find much of it boring
BUT than again, i love seeing people out there, ( i am a member of a bicycle long tour group) that have not accepted what society says you must do.
go to college, find a girl, get a job, marry, have 2 kids, save money, grow old...die
their out their living there lives
In a nation run by swine, all pigs are upward-mobile and the rest of us are fucked until we can put our acts together: not necessarily to win, but mainly to keep from losing completely. HST

Re: ALERT!!! Young US vlogger
It's not that it's not useful. Personally, I like some history channels and I use it to learn languages and listen to music. It's just that it engenders a unique type of self-obsession and allows people to make money off of useless garbage that amounts to nothing more than vanity. It's also harmful for children, there is a lot of really bizarre stuff on there that is quite predatory in the way it targets kids, weird pregnancy videos being one example.newkidontheblock wrote: ↑Thu Jan 19, 2023 1:31 am I personally find YouTube incredibly useful.

Pure publicity.

Mr Lusby says that he has learnt the lesson from his experience and will in future use reputable ride-hailing apps."
lol, pure comedy
