That you shouldn't be paying paying attention to meme girl with her bad attitude that gives me the vapors, but instead these kids who the author definitely knew about before googling "precocious young people" like ten minutes ago.

I think the point is that some teen got famous for being a cranky rear end in a top hat on TV, but we should all be paying attention to these very accomplished teens instead, because human beings can only know about one teenager at a time.

It is a loving stupid point. Good for those very accomplished teens, though.

Laffo the description from that link

The documentary follows feminist filmmaker Cassie Jaye as she sets out to document the mysterious and polarising world of the Men's Rights Movement, where she begins to question her own beliefs.

Jaye began the process as a feminist, but she ended up not only sympathising with the MRAs, but fundamentally questioning the “aggressive” ethos of modern feminism.

For her efforts, she says she has been smeared, threatened with “career suicide” and even saw her funding dry up – to the point where the movie was unlikely to see the light of day.

But then something incredible happened: via a Kickstarter fund, a “global army” of 2,732 free speech advocates (of both genders), raised a staggering $211,260, ensuring the movie’s cinematic release.

(also nice artifacts)

Apparently you aren't important or useful or some poo poo like that unless you're also famous, and that being briefly (in)famous is better than being smart/talented/etc. for a lifetime.

This is bitching about a meme? I'd never even heard about this before this post because it's just never come up til now.

How loving ridiculous for imgur of all websites to be complaining about memes though.

It's some bitchy 13-year-old who got 15 minutes of fame for an appearance on Dr. Phil where she was awful, but I guess in a funny way?

The actual problematic part is that if she had darker skin, nobody would be finding her behavior quite as precocious and entertaining.

Is this something that happened recently because kids have been on going on Maury with attitudes like that for years.
A few friends of mine shared the stupid meme about how the poor 13 year old with 2 college degrees doesn't have as many Instagram followers, thus our society is so backwards. But I had never even heard of this girl before I saw the meme so thanks for making this girl you don't like even more famous?
Anyone who equates social media popularity with usefulness to society is the real idiot.
