Polymarket deleted their tweet because they wanted to stop the backlash they were getting for it.
I won’t let them.
Prediction markets, and polymarket specifically are disgusting sites who only exist because enough people lose money on them that it keeps them running.
The normalization of this website, especially within the League of Legends community, is one of the most alarming things that has happened in recent years.
League creators are getting paid hundreds, if not thousands per quote tweet, as well as 5 figure monthly salaries to promote them on stream and it’s at a point now where this is just accepted.
It shouldn’t be.
Prediction markets, gambling websites, and sports betting sites are willing to shill tens of thousands of dollars to content creators because they know the viewers of said creator will lose infinitely more than they pay for the sponsor.
How can this be okay?
Money, especially in this economy, is hard to come by. But throwing your viewers and the people who support you under the bus because you want to make a few thousand extra every month should inspire criticism, not acceptance.
Fuck Polymarket, and fuck the people who run the account for trying to use mine and my wife’s pregnancy announcement for their own benefit and everyone else’s demise.

There is nothing in sports more frustrating than watching a middling CONCACAF/South American team fake injuries and waste time … when you want the other team to win.

Generational performance from the Paraguayans tonight.
🚨BREAKING: NEW footage shows ICE/Border Patrol agents holding both of the victim’s empty hands when they fire the first shot, in Minneapolis.
In the video, you can see the U.S. citizen’s hands in the front, being held by agents, empty.
An agent in grey appears to grab the U.S. citizen’s LEGAL firearm, that is holstered on his side, and runs back.
Once the U.S. citizen is unarmed, agents open fire on him.
