   Really excited for the growing gambling problem to explode. it doesn’t seem like people are actively noticing this happening just everywhere now that online gambling and sports betting is so accessible. Beginning to hear anecdotes of kids doing it. Very cool thank you

     @Turdicus I really like how we live in an economy where the most important goal is to find the One Thing you can't help but dump cash into and put it onto a smartphone you carry in your pocket. I think this is very healthy.

     @Turdicus Every ad for every sports event, sports podcast, sports show, anything, is for Fanduel or some equivalent. It's an absolute cancer, and they're incredibly open about it. The actual games are the most ridiculous refball bullshit too. The cultural corrosion is so disgusting. Traditional college rivalries get scrapped for board of director kikes to suck a little more money out with conference realignment, even youth sports steadily get more professionalized with travel team bullshit that grinds down middle class families in the hopes that little Timmy will get exposure. There used to be a wholesome pasttime sports culture in America, but now it feels like the whole thing's been absurdly corrupted and warped for the sole purpose of enabling any number of destructive money treadmills.

     The college conferences part was a profit driven shitshow all along but you’re right on the rest

     @Turdicus Sportsball fans affected most. It used to be Fantasy Football that had them locked in but now you have gambling on top of it. All these videos of women saying they hate guys who play video games but men who watch niggerball are probably way worse.
