    I think it’s more “there’s no such thing as bad attention.”

    Any engagement compounds, and at some point, turns into money. It’s not a mystery either, it’s a systemic issue from the way people are fed information now, thanks to the engagement optimization race to the bottom.

    Celebrities can certainly fall, but it’s only if they’re boring.
