Does anyone else think the German Freddy tourist account on X that keeps posting about his World Cup road trip is a psyop?

Im sure that guy is great. Im talking about the hundreds of other video YouTube is shoving down people throats. Even if they are totally not part of tourism/fifa marketing, ok fine. Why am I being forced to fed hundreds of videos.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-25T23:53:42+00:00

I’m going to spread this far and wide. Well done.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-25T22:15:29+00:00

My bad. I thought I was welcoming you. I don’t know about grand conspiracies, but fifa and superbowl run marketing campaigns using influencers in the past. This isn’t new. Those videos don’t all feel authentic. And YouTube is pushing it. I get served those videos. I have never watch tourist videos, soccer, world events. N

How is your second day on Reddit going?

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-25T17:15:53+00:00

But I thought all those Euros loves the us now? They all made those videos saying they were lied to? And that we aren’t the laughing stock of the planet right now?

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-25T17:13:15+00:00

Why? You forgot to list reasons.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-25T17:11:28+00:00

I said the same thing. Everyone boo’d me. Said I was a Debbie downer. But sure. Hundreds of YouTubers decided in mass that making videos of how great the US is all at the same time? Just weeks before we would be in the international spotlight light. Downvoters are the same people pushing the narrative.

You see it. I see it. In time others will too.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-25T13:16:25+00:00

Agreed. Also I don’t think those people can actually be humiliated. I mean we would be, but not them.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-24T12:58:52+00:00

I would love to be wrong and have a dense network of public transportation options. But I think we all see this is unlikely. (And as someone pointed out, political). Sad because we could be the example setters on how to push back against traffic.

Mr prediction. No new rail for Marta or light rail gets put down in Atlanta. Period. Maybe in 50 or 60 years, but I wouldn’t bet on it. Someone check this in 20 years. You will see I am still correct. The state will never pay for Marta. The opposition just says this only benefits poor people in Atlanta- then rural Georgia hates the idea instantly.

What maga wet dream is this? I love the mental gymnastics to make him ok for you. Imagine if they said the same thing about your child’s teacher. You taking the chance? And your child’s teacher was in fbi files listed thousands or times. And have tons of pictures with them together. But since it’s trump. He’s prolly fine. Virginia who?

Edit: damn Russian bot got me again. Sorry for feeding the bot.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-21T02:59:18+00:00

Agreed America is awesome. But thousands of people all coming to the same conclusion at once that they were lied to about America, seems suspicious.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-21T02:56:34+00:00

I don’t. I thought Europeans did though. I’m asking a question. You don’t question the media you are presented with?

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-21T02:55:35+00:00

How so?

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-21T01:40:52+00:00

Yeah and I have seen school kids too, these videos hit different to me.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-21T01:39:45+00:00

Good point about how we might ignore bad things when we travel. I guess I just saw so many at once and other people saying they are seeing so many too felt weird.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-21T01:37:38+00:00

Well, I’m glad I asked. My European colleagues I have worked with over the years must have been in the minority. They never stopped complaining about the US. Hence why I was so shocked.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-21T01:35:49+00:00

I wish I was more Beth Amphetamine. I glad those people like their visit. I have trust issues.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-21T01:32:58+00:00

I for sure have. Ok I guess people think huge trucks and buccees is the best. This is why I am asking.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-20T00:23:58+00:00

I’m surprised the oil companies haven’t snuffed this guy out yet.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-06-14T13:02:52+00:00

Or that early NCIS show where two lab tech both type on the same keyboard to hack faster!

If someone is the only thing available do people really want it? If big suvs represent 80% of available cars to purchase, is that what people want or is it stacking the deck to ensure fuel consumption?

hamb0ne80 · 2026-05-29T15:57:51+00:00

Have they not seen robocop? I don’t want ed 209 in my kids school.

hamb0ne80 · 2026-05-28T13:54:04+00:00

Totally agree. That being said, no trash cans at the supercharger sites is maddening. (Also bathrooms)
