The Unsolicited Celebrity Endorsement

So what do you know about juggalos?  Insane Clown Posse?

How about Faygo soda?

Advertisers put effort into who they pick as a potential spokesperson.  And because people are idiots with stupid cognitively biased brains sometimes the desired outcome isn’t the result.  And sometimes instead of a neutral result the reverse can hold true and bad press results with negative consequences.  Whether it’s fair or not, cancel culture is a concern for all involved.  It does happen and with alarming regularity.

The typical celebrity endorsement is like the classic picture on a Wheaties box.  After getting permission from the athlete involved and paying them varying amounts of money depending on their popularity the mere presence of a beloved famous athlete on the box can generate a cognitively biased image.  Michael Jordan = awesome.  I will eat Wheaties and be awesome, too.  On the other hand, there’s the Tiger Woods situation.  Not just the prize winnings from the tour, but his fortune included lots of sponsorship dollars.  And then things went not just wrong, but really wrong, and some corporations took rapid action to distance themselves from him.  It would have been easier for everyone if the bad behavior was before the endorsement deal, and the corporations simply chose a different more reliable personality as their figurehead.  Good luck to Hans Niemann finding such deals after his recent, as one GM commentator said, “rapid unscheduled disassembly of a hotel room”.

When dealing with gematria juggalos clowns one doesn’t get any big name celebrities associated with gambling or crypto.  There are attempts, they just don’t really get much traction.  Jeff Young was a caller on Zach’s radio show.  Zach tried to mount a campaign to get on Joe Rogan’s show.  These rarities have a common denominator of not having an actual quid pro quo advertising relation between the “company” (gematria decoders) and the spokesperson.  A Rogan relation never came to be.  Young was already “damaged goods.”

So what’s a gematria cult leader to do?  Do what they’ve always done.

Pick on dead people.

Gematria, where the narrative could be considered good inevitably ends up in an evil narrative.  And let’s face it, Kobe is not going to step in front of a microphone and denounce gematria and the lunacy associated with his passing.  And Kobe Bryant gematria is currently showing up on social media.  All sports are rigged , so one of my best stories gets a reprint because the Super Bowl is like Christmas for the sports pick scammer.  The speed of gematria unsolicited endorsements is lightning quick.  As soon as Toby Keith’s death was announced fingers were clickety clicking away, videos pumped out and he was added to the pantheon of dead celebrities endorsing how a nonexistent group of murders is evil.  And here’s a typical gematria induced narrative that hasn’t had the time and attention of a mega star like Kobe:

1)  Toby died with this magic number.

2)  Here’s another appearance of the magic number.

3)  You idiot, you’re wrong.

4)  Yeah, but, but, but….

And the correction came from friendly fire.  Someone how thinks they’re helping a community decode something.  A community that is using an unsolicited celebrity endorsement by Toby Keith.

And now…by association…by even being right when you’re clearly wrong…Taylor Swift who is currently not dead is a unsolicited celebrity endorsement for a system that can turn every person that is alive now, that died before today, or will be born in the future into the face of evil.

Note the immunity to fact checking between 3) and 4).  Gematria education doesn’t include analysis of peer reviewed intelligently researched material.  Gotta got that story off hot off the presses because I’m the only one that noticed Toby died on the wrong day for my magic number!  Gotta hurry, my new Patreon subscription video is up!

And these clowns do the unsolicited celebrity endorsement all the time.  It’s never so much about the dead celebrity as an excuse to slander the living celebrity.  That Kobe Super Bowl decoding I mentioned?  Yesterday there was a post on Twixter declaring that Kobe’s wife Vanessa murdered him for the money.  Quite literally, not disguised at all.  And although technically related to the unveiling of a Kobe statue, you need to understand the way these people have been indoctrinated - the community is talking about ALL major sports being rigged.  And the Super Bowl is NOW.  They have the attention span of a toddler and are mind numblingly gullible as displayed by their reaction to the constant tactics of making them believe they are smarter than they really are - even when you’re wrong, you’re right.

But yes, there are straight up connections being narrated now about Kobe and this Super Bowl.  There’s connections to every past Super Bowl.  There’s going to be connections to all future Super Bowls.
