Peers Morgan's source of income, and hence his job, is being rage bait in (vaguely) human form. A pound shop Alex Jones. It's being his job doesn't mean I have to respect it, or him. See also: loan sharks, living statues, influencers generally.

Who said anything about you personally respecting anyone?

  • >> the hollow attention they crave

    > It’s their job, their source of income

    You seemed to be reacting to my low opinion of the practices of attention dredgers, as if I'm bad for holding that opinion and a should respect all career choices and income generation attempts. Perhaps I read that quite wrong.

    • > as if I’m bad

      I didn’t say anything like that, you pulled that feeling out of yourself.

      I’m just pointing out that they are doing it for money. Most white collar workers are using AI as part of their job these days.
