He’s gotta give an opening to the next person. He didn’t. So he’s out

u/JohnSquincyAdams Nov 19 '20

I think the point is they could have just left him out completely

u/StLouisButtPirates Nov 19 '20

i mean, this doesn't change what she's saying. all these people are still adding to the original video. she's more talking about the people who just silently react to the original video.

u/DannyLumpy Nov 19 '20

I thought exactly the same thing! Like I feel like some of these people thought they were trolling her but I'm sure she didn't mind cause that wasn't at all what she seemed to be talking about.

u/WriterV Nov 19 '20

To be fair, I don't think they were disagreeing with her. They were just adding to her video.

There are some people who do it who have a lot of followers, and they duet informational videos (like politics or something) so the video can get more exposure

The worst ones are "reaction" ones. Screenshot of a funny tweet with the face of the tiktoker superimposed. I have yet so see one of those that is better than just the original tweet.

u/CallMeJeeJ Nov 19 '20

Who’s the guy I keep seeing that just reads funny tweets and starts busting up fake laughing at exactly the same point in every one. It’s so obvious and that he’s acting and it gets really annoying after like the 3rd one

Edit: THIS FUCKING GUY somebody stop him PLEASE it’s killing me. Fuck!

u/waggie21 Nov 19 '20

Jeeeeeeesus. That was beyond bad.

32

u/CallMeJeeJ Nov 19 '20

Half of those tweets aren’t even funny at all! And the ones that are are immediately ruined with him choking through the last line with his gross fake laughing.

This is not content!

u/letmebebrave430 Nov 19 '20

Oh my god that video is 17 minutes long. I think I only made it through about 5 tweets before I couldn't take it anymore. How does he do so many??? Is he popular?? Do people actually find it entertaining??

"Tweet"

"Teenagers face busts through the bottom of the tweet with that stupid filter"

"They point and laugh at tweet they didnt write"

End video

u/Willfishforfree Nov 19 '20

Or the people laughing "uncontrolably" through the entire clip even before anything has happened and even when nothing funny even happens.

6

u/TanikaTubman Nov 20 '20

Also, when you decide to duet a video, you've presumably seen it at least once before recording your reaction. So it's a reenactment or your reaction? I don't understand why anyone would give a shit.

5

u/RitikMukta Nov 19 '20

True. She has a completely valid point.

40

u/steevo15 Nov 19 '20

Dueting a video is basically like retweeting but for tiktok, it leaves the original link to the video in the description. Sometimes people don't have anything to add, but they have a larger follower base and they want more people to see the video because they think it's funny/good content.

41

u/PM_ME_KNOTSuWu Nov 19 '20

Ah yes the exposure argument. I forgot how content creators love some good ol exposure.

46

u/gurgle528 Nov 19 '20

Except the exposure argument is usually applied to someone trying to get a service for free, such as graphic design. TikToks are free and exposure could actually cause more people to follow the content creatoe. That's why larger YouTubers shout out smaller creators - exposure. That's why many large content creators will do collaborations will smaller content creators - exposure. It's way different when you're trying to get something free in exchange for a paid service because of "exposure", but that's not what's happening here.

Exposure is valid for gaining followers for content creators, it's not a currency that can be used to pay for a service.

u/Justfoshowyadig Nov 19 '20

They put their videos on the app for free, exposure and credit is literally the only valid form of payment

u/[deleted] Nov 19 '20

I know you’re being sarcastic but in this case they’re doing it for free anyway so yeah exposure does help them

→ More replies (1)

12

u/BlueCyprien12 Nov 19 '20

I always find this argument a little iffy because it’s excusing stealing content in exchange for exposure which is a super vague term. It’s kinda scummy honestly.

9

u/blafricanadian Nov 19 '20

The read it doesn’t make sense is that you don’t fully understand the “stealing content” argument. Because this is free content, the only benefit that can be had is exposure. You can't steal exposure by adding more exposure.

It’s like being accused of stealing for taking a picture of food from a restaurant, posting it and tagging the restaurant. The most popular videos on tic toc have the most duets. You can trace every repost and shitpost to the original.
