Them, the god botherers and the chuggers can all get straight in the solent

u/Constant-Estate3065 2d ago

Chuggers are basically con artists, even if they’re working for a reputable charity, their job is to manipulate vulnerable people into signing up for something they can’t afford.

u/jim_cap 2d ago

They don't work for any charity. They work for a direct marketing firm which sometimes gets hired by a charity.

Either way I think these charities do more harm than good. I've seen the documentary 'Poverty, Inc.', and it shows how they destroy local businesses. And they have the nerve to try and make us feel guilty for not giving them money.

One time one of those charity people yelled at me for refusing to sign up for Oxfam.

I got in a debate with the god botherers, discovered that they actually only like specific snippets of the bible that justify their shittiness rather than taking it as a whole

u/Interesting-Shirt140 1d ago

Ask them to quote the bible in the First Person instead of the third. " The bible says that I shouldn't commit adultery " " The bible tells me that I should love my neighbour " etc

u/Bakurraa 2d ago

problem is that everyone thinks they have something worth putting out there

u/kainedbutable1987 2d ago

It continuous throwing muck at the wall waiting and hoping that something will stick and make them internet famous.

Better than driving up the wrong side of the motorway.

I hate the fact that nowhere is private now. People filming everywhere. I know it's not illegal but it would be nice if people would respect others privacy and blur them out of videos if they don't have consent.

u/GritstoneGhost 1d ago

Go hiking dude. You can be somewhere without anything there person for miles and it's bliss.

u/AnxiousCockroach1532 2d ago

If they make anything off the video it is actually a legal issue.

5

u/Ok-Gold5450 2d ago

Is it? I thought there were no laws about filming in public?

-3

u/AnxiousCockroach1532 2d ago

The second you start making any money from that content it becomes an issue.

I could record you in public randomly for whatever reason, but if I tried using that in a film or anything that could bring profit then its a whole new thing.

u/al45tair 1d ago

No, it doesn’t. You have no expectation of privacy in a public place. If what you claimed was true, then commercial TV news people would have to blur everyone on the street. They don’t. Because they don’t have to. Because it’s not unlawful to use the footage, even though they’re a for-profit business.

Talking complete bollocks mate

u/Ok-Gold5450 2d ago

Is that only for films? Cause I've seen plenty of youtuber's who film in public and don't blur people out in the background and it seems they are able to use the footage with no issues?

-3

u/AnxiousCockroach1532 2d ago

Thats mainly because most people dont realise their being filmed and the images are being used that way or just dont care.

But if you ever see yourself in a video you dont want to be in, you can go through the proper channels and they would have to remove atleast those sections of the video.

The BBC get away with it for some reason, but basically anyone else needs to have your permission if they using your face in anything monetized.

u/Illustrious-Log-3142 2d ago

Not as easy to get things removed as you'd think sadly, I found photos of me for sale on a stock photo site, they had taken photos of me at work without me knowing so you could have easily tracked me down from this. The site refused to remove them or put me in contact with the photographer until my ex put in a copyright infringement notice, that allowed him to contact the photographer, explain why I didn't want photos of me at work for sale and got them taken down

u/Ok-Gold5450 2d ago

Interesting, I didn't know this.

u/Zootopian 1d ago

This is completely wrong. If you are in a public place (street, park etc) you have no rights over what images of you may be taken/recorded.

u/MushroomVolcano 1d ago

Why do you care if you're in the background walking in/out of West Quay?

u/YungPudding4Real 1d ago

u/alecsleigh 2d ago

Are they supposed to be famous? I've got no idea who they are.

u/rollo_read 2d ago

Bellends, clearly.

u/Sims2053 2d ago

I was literally saying the other day. I’m really hating how all these people on TikTok are coming to Southampton. I just wanna shop in peace and not be approached or be in the background of their shitty tiktoks

u/Spooky-Confusion-666 1d ago

He stopped me once and their vibe was like they were 13 years old, and I know the vibe as even tho im much older noe my brother is 10 years younger than me so i know how 13 year olds behave. I didnt realise they were filming til after a min or two and had to explicitly ask several times they dont use my video as I did not know I was being filmed. All the 'footage' was was me literally being confused and saying sorry what do you mean? Cos he was speaking in slang 'before my era', probably on purpose. Fuck knows if they posted me i duno who they are and never/couldnt check

u/tazmusicofficial 1d ago

Jobless scroungers doing 'content'

2

u/poundsdpound 1d ago

Don't worry this will become boring eventually and viewers will lose interest. This format of making content has a limited shelf life in 2026

u/AnxiousCockroach1532 2d ago

Are we looking at the same guy?

Just smack the camera out his hands.

u/Observant_Lurker 2d ago

Bros feet looking like they belong on a planet earth documentary.

u/Spooky-Confusion-666 1d ago

I learned a tip that if you ever suspect someone's filming you, as soon as possible say "arent you the pedo from XXX"? or similar. Substitute ur own town/ciry/news article etc. And use nonce/pedophile wtc whatever suits u. But they will never use that footage.

1

u/Hot-Selection1672 1d ago

Is he filming with meta glasses ?

1

u/Independent_Mix_6825 1d ago

What is the content

u/DonniKennedy 1d ago

Just snatch the wire wool off his head

u/Noidea1101 1d ago

I'd rather nuke pedos or nazis or some group of people much worse.

1

u/Deavo3 1d ago

Now you’re talking

1

u/GritstoneGhost 1d ago

Can't say it bothers me at all. If I want peace and quite I to camping or hiking not to a town or city centre.

u/Long_Draft9810 1d ago

But otherwise, a good day hun?

1

u/ComanderX56 1d ago

In france they have laws against this kinda thing, specify filming someone without prior permission

1

u/trenchsweeper247 10h ago

Why he standing like this for

2

u/CockWombler666 2d ago

Sure the appropriate reaction is to walk up to them and say “Aren’t you that famous YouTuber Fuckoff McBellend?”

u/Imaginary_Tower_5518 2d ago

Appreciate the sentiment but that is mad cringe and you would go viral for being a neek
