In case you’re wondering, are the right people making money?

This is a yes.

Link goes to TikTok, and the good feeling of this will only be understood by those who’ve followed TikTok, even and especially if you’ve only followed my TikTok posts.

OMG! That little guy is so cute!

I hope he knows that Chipotle Corn is spicy!

I’m just happy he’s seeing a payday. Don’t want him exploited though.

There are 700+ billionaires in the US. I wonder what their acquisition of wealth contributed to society.

That kid, and everything else done with the corn interview, are the very best things about Tik Tok. I'd say they should just stop any more new material, but I'd be worried that the next corn related video was even better.

Yes it is nice to see him with his own videos.

Kinda like skateboard guy, the personality in the video deserves the reward not the derivative artists.

Cell phones, computers, software, internet sites, electric cars, cheaper shopping, online shopping, cheaper rocket launches....basically the highest standard of living for the most number of people in human history.

Is he better than the Apparently Kid?

"Don’t want him exploited though."

Whatever exploitation may be going on, this kid is already deep into it.

I'm more concerned about how many parents are looking at the "views" and "followers" numbers, doing a quick calculation in their heads, and glancing sideways at their little one sitting there eating their porridge, and thinking "I wonder what cutesy meme I could come up with to monetize my kid... "

Reading the TikTok comments,

"We lost another one to capitalism, it was fun while it lasted"

Sad.
