The transcript critiques the persistence of bullying and toxic behavior on social media, especially among influencers and teenagers. It highlights a public incident where girls mocked a man for recording a food review, showing how trivial and unkind bullying remains. Another case involves a teenager with rainbow hair being targeted for her hair’s length and her mother’s disability, revealing jealousy and a lack of empathy. The video also exposes harmful dynamics in fitness communities, where instructors harshly criticize participants with disabilities or larger bodies, leading to job loss and public backlash. A major point of criticism is how influencers like James Charles responded to a job loss appeal by mocking the person instead of offering support, citing lack of followers as justification—exposing vanity, entitlement, and emotional detachment. The speaker argues that bullying, while often dismissed as harmless, is deeply traumatic and damaging, especially when it stems from insecurity or performative behavior. They emphasize that real growth comes from empathy, not from dismissing others’ experiences. Ultimately, the video calls out performative apologizing, social media toxicity, and the dehumanizing effects of online cruelty, urging a shift toward compassion, accountability, and self-awareness in digital spaces.
(upbeat music) - Love has been physically up like strawberry sprites. Strawberry sprites, strawberry sprites. Mean girls are alive and well. If you thought Mean Girls ended back in like 2004, I got news for you. They've been out here thriving since then. The fact that bullying still exists in the big 2026 is wild. And the cases that I actually have for this video are so unnecessary, but then again, when has bullying been necessary and not stupid? Since everyone records themselves eating nowadays, someone was trying out this new coffee place where they also sell sandwiches and whatnot. And while he was eating this food and reviewing it on camera, a couple girls come behind them and they start making fun of him for literally no reason. Was trying to make a food review in public and these wanna be Mean Girls a laugh and made fun of me. - So I got. - What does he say? - What does he say? - Um, so they were kind of rude, but it's okay guys. Anyways, so I got for Sudo, O'Rugula, and Baroque. ♪ Really has the best pizza ♪ - He is way more confident than me because if that was me and I was recording eating my food, I heard people behind me make fun of me. That would ruin my whole month. And I would think about this shit for the next 20 years. If you didn't hear one of these girls says, "Nobody even knows who you are." - Don't be those who you are. - And I understand that recording in public is awkward like your recording is changes. And I would understand if she was like, "Hey, please crop my face out or blur me out 'cause I don't wanna be on camera, yeah." But the straight up say, "Nobody knows who even you are." So Karma's obviously a bitch and people found her TikTok and they were calling her out and she posted a story saying, "Story time soon. Don't believe everything that you see on the internet." I mean, you still said what you said. So actually, let's take a look at this apology video because she dropped an apology video. Like what could she possibly say about her and her friend being a mean girl? - Hi guys, some of you may know who I am but most of you probably don't, but my name is Kai and I really just wanted to address a video that's been circulating recently and really just gave my side of the story of what happened. - Clearly, I did something wrong and I'm sorry for it, but at the same time, I want you guys to understand that it's not what happened. And I had no way intended to make fun of him or make it look like I was bullying him. And reality, I was just doing something dumb 'cause I'm a teenage girl. Like, we do dumb stuff, guys. And I am getting a lot of hate for it online. - So her excuse was like, "Hey, I'm a teenager. We do dumb stuff." I mean, understandable and I do get that, you know? Teenagers, they do do dumb stuff. I'm glad that she actually apologized for what she did and you're getting hate for it online though. If it isn't the consequences of my own actions. But, and to be honest, I really didn't care that she did that stupid gesture, whatever, a teenager. But apparently it wasn't her that called the guy and nobody, it was her friend. So instead, it should have been the actual girl who made fun of him and not her. Then her best friend sent her to apologize. Like, she using her as like a protection. Like, you guys throw hate at her, not me. And I appreciated her for apologizing, but she should definitely hold her friend accountable for what she did. I'm gonna ask you a question. Do you know what the majority of influencers struggle with like when they're making their content? It's video ideas. It is probably one of the hardest things to do, by the way. And personally, I also struggle with a lot of video ideas. And only now deleted video. So you know when these videos are deleted, that this shit was wild. An influencer had her anniversary and she was at a restaurant for dinner with her boyfriend/husband. And she wasn't originally gonna record this because her anniversary as a video idea seemed really boring. But thankfully God was listening to her prayers and someone died outside the restaurant. And she was like, thank you God for answering my prayers and making content for me. - I wasn't planning on filming our anniversary dinner, but when we walked up, there was a dead body outside. So I know it was going to be an eventful one. They said our table with gorgeous roses and a beautiful note, happy anniversary. - What does it say? Happy anniversary, Sarah and Eddie. We realized that your TikTok was gonna be boring for your anniversary. So we decided to kill someone outside our restaurant to make it more eventful for you. - I love when restaurants do that. - I always get the same thing when I come here. So I was planning on switching it up a little bit, but I did it surprise, surprise. - They brought us some champagne to celebrate, but Eddie drank them both because I stopped drinking alcoholic four years ago. We enjoyed our romantic evening under the red and blue strobe lights. We started with oysters two ways because I, one of the oysters Rockefeller, they are the best thing on the menu. And Eddie wanted some good old fashioned raw oysters. - Kim, sweetie, people just died outside. And she's like, oh, the oysters though. Oh, the oysters though. Have you guys seen these new oysters that just dropped? They are so flavorable, so good. Can you turn it down with the lights a little bit? I'm trying to record a TikTok. - Ah, okay, sorry. - Yeah, but the oysters though, this is the whole fucking TikTok. - He ended up with this weird. He loved it, finished everybody. Please put the bill like every good couple does on our anniversary. Info ones are inside though. How can you be this desensitized or like someone died? This is actually a perfect opportunity to shoot a couple of videos for my anniversary. Like, bitch, if you thought your anniversary was that boring that people were not gonna give a fuck about it and you had to record an insane event. What did you think that people were gonna care? Like, we still don't care though. You made this like a full yap session. By the way, I love how the person who recorded this was skimping through it because they got bored. The lack of empathy. I only started recording because I saw dead body. I mean, okay, log-and-pulled sister. And a trend that actually started a couple of weeks ago and personally, I think this is horrible. So people have been posting their boyfriends/grow-like pictures of their boyfriends or their girlfriends on TikTok. But before they actually post the original picture, they asked Chad GPT to edit the picture to make their significant other look a lot more attractive. So then they actually post the edited picture and with a caption that she's sad, that he doesn't look like this. And the next caption is like, "Well, let me clean my glasses." And it's the original picture of her and her boyfriend. And he doesn't look like he was Lux Maxing. And when your boyfriend doesn't look, Lux Max, do you even want him to toss him away? Mm-hmm. And it's a guy though. This would kill me, especially that sad caption that I don't look like that. Now, imagine the roles being reversed. A guy posts an edited picture of his girl looking like super hot, crazy, unrealistic features. And he's like, "Mm, here's a real picture of her. She does not look like this savvy." Yeah. And this wasn't even the original video. And I was taking a look at the comments and some people are actually calling this guy short and ugly. And I'm like, "This is why you should never do this." Imagine your boyfriend looking at the comments and be like, "Oh my God, he's so short and ugly." Like, what was honestly the point of this? To say that you wish your boyfriend looked better, then don't be with someone. If you don't like the way that they look, or are you actually having fun because they're calling your boyfriend short and ugly? Maybe I'm a hater, but this is a little too performative for me. Why is we reading in the other shifts? Controversial opinion. Y'all are gonna hate me for this. This might be a little too performative in my opinion. I mean, come on. Who are you trying to impress here, Aquaman? Are you expecting him to come out of the water like, "Wow, I like me a smart girl." You know what? You're coming with me, bitch. Can you hold your bed for a few seconds? Why do I feel like these are the type of girls that be like, "You know what, hey, I can actually read." Yeah, I'm a reader. Like, you don't think we can read as well. I mean, I might be a little dyslexic, but I'm not a literate. But hey, they're not hurting anyone, so who cares? But do I think that these girls should be bullied because they're being performative as hell? Yep, 100%. And on the age where everyone is doing get ready with me stories on TikTok, and when I tell you these people have no shame, admitting that they used to be a bully. I was a mean girl in high school. Let's talk about it. There was a comment someone made, and it basically said something to the effect of, "I'm so glad to see you let me." I'm still the same mean girl that she was in high school. I'm so still the youth. It made me just start reminiscing about high school. I went to high school over four years ago, so it's really been a minute. It's kinda crazy to me that someone, like even still cares about them. The fact that she says you're still thinking about the times when I bullied you in high school, like I moved on, like why are you still thinking about being bullied? Bitch, have you heard about trauma and how insane bullying is to someone? And I'm gonna confess here, I got bullied a lot in high school, like oh my god, the traumatic stories. And I still think about that now, because it sucks, it really does affect any changes you as a person to be bullied every day. And for a bully to say you're still thinking about being bullied in high school, girl, move on. And I really care about people when I was in high school. I'm just busy doing my own thing and dealing with my own stuff. I had a lot going on when I was that age, yeah. I really wish that I've commented or I could have seen who they were, so I would like no more of the story. Luckily my high school life was very strange. I was pretty smart, like I am pretty smart. You know that someone is smart when they say that they're smart? And in this video, because she's so smart, she says that she's not a mean girl anymore. She's not that nasty person that she used to be in high school because now she has traveled. Because nothing speaks of old men more than traveling with your dad's money. I've traveled a lot in the past four years. I've met a lot of different people, then in a lot of different places and learned a lot of life lessons. So I don't really think about high school anymore. And if you're still focused on me and high school, then you clearly have no purpose in my life because you will
Definitely a bit different opinion if you like actually knew me if you're still someone who's like focus on high school And it's been almost five years. You almost be chronically online and need to like get a life go travel Go meet people go talk to people go make money Oh, if you still thinking about me bullying back in high school like I've moved on pasta like probably the day after I bullied you But like go out make money like the fuck have y'all ever thought about making money before like money is good right now Money is actually trending. I've seen so many people make money like my dad So like my dad makes a lot of money and I like that because I get to travel and do fun stuff So if you don't want to think about the times where I bullied the fuck out of you back in high school makes a money Fuck while I am believing more and more than she is smarter than the average person Because why did I not think about it before that the way to move on from the the trauma of being bullied just make money Sad easy, but I do have a hot take on this I think bullying is something that has to happen when you're young something from like an evolutionary or like biological And I've always thought this way, and I will probably continue to think this way if you're someone who's being bullied You kind of like to learn to stick up for yourself or like learn to have more confidence in yourself bullying in America or like the mean girls of America, but it's really not that bad I'll ever seen K dramas. I don't know what happens in other countries what bullies are like American teenagers have gotten so soft these days because of social media I don't really anything offense people and makes people like I'm being bullied Like if you are being bullied it's gonna help you grow up and be a stronger person Have your foot in life because of your experience unless you dwell on it for four years after high school Then that's just kind of sad. So nasty laugh at the end if you're dwelling on being bullied Girl what so you're still a mean girl you are still the same person that you were in high school And I don't even know you the fact that she says being bullied in a biological way is a good thing because it helps you grow as a person Where is she pulling these statistics out of out of her ass a lot of people that are bullies do end up having like higher social Growth in life. I feel like there's some psychological backing to this stuff. I mean, I'm not saying like go out and be mean to people Get just something that naturally happens and that kind of has to happen It's giving like evolution theory use. It's giving biological things. It's giving me making shit up It's giving like me coming up with statistics that don't exist But like I look you wish they existed. So I'm just gonna tell my brain that these statistics exist Being a bully means that you have a higher social growth and she continues yapping for almost six minutes Just saying how bullying is good. Although she is not a mean girl. Do not get that confused She's definitely not a mean girl or a bully because she has matured She has traveled and her daddy has made some money. So that means she's not a mean girl anymore Yeah, you can argue with facts This next one is probably the weirdest bullying that I've seen on this app A teenager was showing everyone her rainbow hair that she just got done from her mom And I think in this video she says it took like eight hours to get it done because her mom is also disabled And the hair honestly looks really good 10 out of 10 and shout out to her mom for doing an amazing job And you're probably like there is no way on earth that she got bullied for her hair This is what triggered me a grown-ass adult saw a problem with this video somehow She saw this video and she was like your hair it took eight hours to do that eight hours What did you guys do that took eight hours? Unlegitimately be be be be Fuddled how anybody's hair can take more than two to three hours and most of it is waiting And she says my mom is disabled so doing this kind of stuff is hard for her But I'm so grateful that she did it for me And you probably think she probably shot her ass up with that comment Now that was not enough After seeing that comment grumpy all over here got even more upset and she decides to question Give it mine this is a stranger a complete stranger she decides to questions her mom's disability Comments on the video about the girl colored hair saying that she told me that her mother was disabled Is she physically disabled is she mentally disabled is she To she have some kind of heart disability So there's this girl on here with rainbow hair, right? It's not a shit ton more hair than me Not a shit ton it looks like it But it's not a shit ton more hairs apparently that makes me the biggest dick on the fucking planet How what took you guys eight hours? I'm legitimately befuddled and confused as to what take it took eight hours I understand I'm good at everything I try because I'm fucking autistic Taking shit personally with a fucking question Why doesn't matter what kind of disability her mom has Why does it matter so much You know what you know what I'm smelling right now jealousy To post three fucking tiktoks three separate tiktoks Just ranting and raving about absolutely nothing that you're upset that her disabled mom took eight hours to do Why does it because this is not even your problem even if she faked it and her mom was not actually disabled Why does it concern you so much make a tiktok video Yeah, that hey guys she's taking what she wasn't but then to make three tiktoks where you're literally just telling everyone That you're jealous about how nice her hair looks like her hair looks that's it's longer than mine But it's literally the same length and mine I feel like mine kind of looks a little better because her looks stinky Come on, there is no way that yours takes eight hours when mine max takes three hours like mine is so much better Cheryl sweetie, what are we smoking? Go take care of your own kids. Why are you so upset about a teenager's hair and obviously she was not gonna end there three tiktoks So she did even more tiktoks where you could actually see her true colors coming out where she was just Being jealous of a teenage girl and her hair looking better and I said it her hair did look better You want to come from me Cheryl? Cover me off my dress Cheryl I might not know how to do rainbow hair color, but I'll be dressed up. I know karate bitch What's up? We're not girl Like I literally just watched a rainbow girl which the hair looks good. I'm not gonna say it doesn't look good The hair looks good. It's just stop stop stop mine looked better Well Okay, this whole video stemmed from a comment that she made on my video and then I just simply explained to her like Yeah, it's gonna take longer because my mother's disabled and then the next day she ended up making a video About how her rainbow hair turned out so much better than mine and all this different stuff and how she's not a pro hair stylist and So on neither is my mother. Well like why what is with this jealousy? Like I cannot imagine me myself being jealous of a teenager Because they have a rainbow hair. I mean, yeah, maybe I'm jealous that you guys got a little more Years than me because like what do you mean? You guys have more years to live than me that would piss me off Yeah, let's start a fight about that, but because you have rainbow hair Please let me have my rainbow hair. It's better than yours Actually a community that I found out was very problematic and I was not expecting this If you had told me that the Pilates community is very problematic I'm like, why would a stupid ass Pilates community be problematic? So girl who was taking a Pilates class apparently was doing the the workout or their position in a wrong way that she wasn't supposed to do it And the instructor was so upset that she decided to go in a rant Is that what they're supposed to be doing? I think your life won't your toes. Take a deep breath and we're not in a position to stay up You lower each vertebrae all the way down. What does that mean? Okay Okay Listen we're not in a shoulder stand. Can we come out of this? Again, there's a direction when I say don't lift your legs up, don't lift them Listen, I have ADHD and when someone gives me instructions, I don't know how to process it I'm not even kidding that if she was telling me those instructions right there I would be very confused. I am a visual learner. If you want me to do something I need like an actual vision to see what you're doing so I can copy it But if you're over here like so first we're gonna come in a handstand backward flip position 360 Instagram can filter yep and then turn your torso to the left a little bit with your hips sticking out bone out, buns out a little bit to the right go on a lower position baby stand fetus and then go into the fill me up daddy position Just like that perfect Although this was not the worst video that I've ever seen She could have been a little nicer so right now I'm more
Also taking some classes because I join like a cross fitting and people there are extremely nice I cannot imagine going there and the instructor like starts putting me on the spot here and telling me that listen We are not doing that. I would never come back. I am so I am so sensitive that you give me directions That I don't know how to follow them because I have a dhd I'm sorry and then you put me on the spotlight that I'm not doing it right I'm not paying money to be scolded please be nice. She said it was horrible and she was honestly rude I'm sad. I really liked how cute it was and she ruined the vibes If you're 200 pounds, you shouldn't be in a Pilates class. There's no reason why they should allow 200 pound people in a level two class There's something or it's Pilates Yeah Pilates instructor if you have a gut near sweetie, it's Pilates. It is not that serious. Why do these Pilates people sound like sweats? First of all, you guys want fat people to lose weight So then fat people go to lose weight and then you're like, uh, why did they come to my class though? They want to lose weight at my class. Fat people should not be working out. Go to McDonald's or some shit And it's Pilates. They don't even use that shit for weight loss So why are you so upset that someone who's overweight came to your class? It does not affect you at all Hey guys, I wanted to come on here and just formally apologize for my last few videos So the same person that posted that video that fat people shouldn't be at Pilates ended up posting an apology video because her job Saw this shit of her being nasty as hell and obviously they were getting terrible comments and they ended up firing her I wanted to come on here and 200 pounds shouldn't be an applied class and just formally apologize for my last few videos because I lost my job and You have a gut. I think the reason why I post of them was because Okay, here fat. I think there are some I think they are some fat people in this world and I guess I got to live with them The things that I do to keep my job fine. I will live with fat people around me Securities in me and some self hate or something but My membership got revoked so and I was told not to go back to work so It's You know, I've learned that if you're 200 pounds, you shouldn't be an applied class. I Can't be nasty. I can't let those things like take over Because it's not okay, and it's not pretty and it's nasty thank you and I just feel really bad Okay, you know what? I'm not gonna be a mean girl here if she's actually sorry I understand we have to let people grow you know because I feel bad being like oh you only apologize because you lost your job and you got fired which Okay, I understand the bowl. You know, yeah, she has to apologize Yeah, but I'm gonna be the better person here I'm gonna say yeah, you know what let people grow. I mean, yeah, she might be a piece of shit But we got to let people grow because I feel like I am the better person and I let people grow so go ahead You can apologize. Will I accept your apology? No, do I think that was shitty to do? Absolutely, but will I personally let her grow and move on with this? You know what? Yeah, out of all the spots? I hate when I go to a yoga class and I sit up my camera where I show About 50% of the room and people walk in that room I mean, yes, they also pay to be there, but like why are you in my shot? Don't you see from my camera that I'm wrong. I'm taking half of this room use the other half Literally use the other half. That's what it's there for I'm recording a TikTok mind you she was in yoga girl You should have been chill on yoga people supposed to be like these chill people that they meditate I don't know if they made it, but they're supposed to be like chill blah blah blah and as soon as someone walks behind them in a public area They get upset that they got in their frame And this wouldn't have been a mean girl video without the CEO of mean girls James Charles and I'm sure you all know by now That he got canceled for the 90th time and at this point. I do not even give a fuck about it anymore. Good morning, James I know you'll probably never see this, but if you could just take one minute to read it would really mean a lot to me I'm really struggling right now because spear airlines just help for bankruptcy and I haven't lost my job Here's to go find me link any donations help I'm sure they do sweetheart. I'm sure they do you know what else would help you getting another job Jesus Yeah, try that because in the time that it took you to copy paste the same fuck-ass message to myself who you don't follow by the way And probably a hundred other influencers and celebrities you could have applied for a hundred other jobs But you didn't because you're a lazy piece of shit and you're entitled Talk about entitled man. Are you looking at yourself in the middle you literally have a camera right in front of you Where it's showing you yourself you're talking to yourself so someone who used to work for spirit airlines loses their job because they filed for bankruptcy And they ended up sending James Charles a GoFundMe and that was her first mistake James Charles the original message was so sweet like hey, I lost my job And if you could help me I would really appreciate it and she sent him her GoFundMe link and James Charles his best idea to respond You could have just ignored it. You literally could have just ignored it But instead let me make a video bashing the fuck out of this poor girl for losing her job And what gets me is that she rents for like three minutes and his entire point about this by the way was a you don't even follow me I think the main reason why he bashed this girl was just because she didn't follow him and she sent him a DM the ego And you think the influencers and celebrities should fund your life for you why why would I ever help you you're not a fan You don't even follow me. You've never supported me. That's your first time the ming and you think that I'm gonna Send you money because you lost your job. Oh my god. Welcome to the real world sweetheart People lose their jobs every fucking day and you're white pretty and able bodied You're in a much better position than a lot of other people out here who are trying clearly much harder to make a better life for themselves Why are I fucking help you the audacity of someone who's never had a real job to be like just go find another job Like what are you a fucking loser? You literally have a body that works go find her another job It's that easy completely out of touch insane mean girl energy But you know what I'm thinking key would have a thousand percent send her the money if she was an underage boy If you were a teenager and a boy he would have been like oh he would have sent you that money before you even asked him about the money And sadly for this girl now she was not a boy and she was not underage Life sucks, okay, I think that's enough mean girls, especially the bully.
