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.

#MCFC stepping up efforts to get the deal done as exclusively revealed tonight. 🇳🇱
City wait for Liverpool to approve sale when they find replacement.
Can we have the sky landers game again they were so good. I get that they stopped because they didn’t want to shill/beat the dead horse but like some fresh faces in the team and it’ll be good
Greatest window of all time man:
- Black Japanese keeper
- Guy who wanks his willy to racist audios
- Reincarnation of H*tler
- Garnacho
Nobody can beat this
Wish people would understand that once primary forest is gone it’s GONE!
Planting trees is fine but secondary forest will take DECADES if not centuries to recover enough to hold the majority of diversity again. ❌🌳
Protecting forest needs to be a way bigger priority than planting trees!!
Secondary forest corridors are obviously insanely important but the planet needs to band together to keep all the primary tropical rainforest that is left intact! 🌿
The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel. To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect. Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.
This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public.
Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.
Is this a good look for BW? 1.5m is a huge bid, regardless of the breakdown. He's done so much for BW and now they're blocking a move to a team whose last game was played in front of 27k fans! What message does it send to players who give their all? He could do his ACL next week
🚨💣 BREAKING: Carlos Baleba to Manchester United, here we go! Verbal agreement in place between clubs.
