It's a much better grift than making youtube videos.

Less staying power, though. Even by the horrible standards of women in entertainment, cam girls tend to have very short careers. And from what I've read and seen of Belle Delphine while learning about this bathwater madness it's probably even shorter since she leans heavily into waifu, DDLG, lolita stuff. Given the likely proclivities of her fanbase, she probably only has a handful of years to really cash in, but she appears to be doing that in spades.

Also, it seems another thing she did was sell nude photos of other women with the trollish lede "Belle Delphine sells nudes," implying they're pictures of her, but they aren't. Haha, right? Except she didn't receive consent from any of the women whose images she sold, and some of them might not have been eighteen, so uhh, that's awful.

We certainly live in interesting times.

Is bath water a euphemism for something? Is this like the time I thought bath salts were those things you get at Lush? Or do I already know the answer in my dead unfeeling heart?

Also Maggie's video was great although I'm always a fan of exposing the horrors of capitalism.

There's a semi popular Australian political/comedy Youtuber by the name of FriendlyJordies who released a video of him drinking the bathwater (or does he). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBvY8Yyny2I
Jordies is an "interesting" personality in his own right, being a dyed in the wool Labor shill and someone who despises identity politics and who now mostly releases low effort click baity poo poo but he does put out the odd gem.

I'm not Australian and most of his stuff is focused on Australian politics so I never really watched him, but I do remember from 5 or so years ago he had a video making fun of the shark cull some Australian politician was pushing and i thought it was pretty drat funny, to the point that I still remember it and the person who made it

Belle Delphine is just part of the larger trend of zoomers showing up our generation and making us realize how weak and pathetic our achievements were. Boxxy never thought to sell her bathwater. Although social media with streaming did not exist in our heyday.
Zoomers are selling bath water just for the hell of it while millennials are busy defending this as so very politically important. Millennials ain't poo poo, zoomers are where it's at.

Millennials have this sense of... self-centered exceptionalism, for lack of a better term, in writing off the entire process of getting old and out-of-touch as the exclusive territory of the Baby Boomer generation. It feels like we act that we were the first generation to discover this.

The label "Gen Z" only stuck because we got loving lazy. Millennials were supposed to be Gen Y, remember? Regardless, they have the right idea: we're all gonna die fairly soon, so have some fun doing it.

I dunno how far this is from freaking financial domination tbh. It's embarrassing. A joke.

I don't even get the logic behind the bath water thing. Like if it was an article of clothing or like a signed photo or something, that'd be understandable (in regards to what someone might *do* with it). With bath water though, what do you do with it? Smell it? Drink it? Vape it? Mix it with you own bath water? Dump it in a humidifier? Use it hydrate your herb garden? Cycle it into your PC's liquid cooling system? Throw it at people to ruin their day?

Actually, that last one gives me an idea.

I think the sad/gross serious answer is that bathwater is easier to sell than underwear and just deniable enough to not cross some sex crime line (I have no idea if she was selling the bath water while she was under 18 and I don't want to google it). You can probably sell up to 40 or 50 jars of bathwater each day without anyone raising an eye, and no one's going to question whether it's real. You sell more than one pair of underwear a day and people start getting suspicious.

Is the right still a big deal on youtube? I haven't heard anything about the usual creeps in what seems like forever--maybe since Carl destroyed his own political party. I assume the comments sections and channels with 100 subs are still out there calling for blut und boden in between fortnite stream archives, but all the big names seem to have faded from the secondary sources where I heard about them. Even old Jordan Peterson seems mostly quiet since getting baffled at that debate with Zizek.

It all seems a long way from 2015-16 when they were what passed for discourse on youtube.

Probably cheaper to get some bottles and print off some labels for them than make a bunch of shirts but signed photos is a good competitior for cheap on their part.

Why people want to buy it is pretty obvious. It's going in their creepy shrines.
