It's a good and fair question. But if you watch the entirety of the video, which features interviews of the victims, you will see that those people are 1/ certainly not mentally impaired 2/ not "stupid" either (as in, people who couldn't understand a question or articulate a clear answer).
I personally have a strong aversion to gurus of any kind, to a point that it's more a flaw than a strength. I don't expect other people to be the same, and I understand (or at least I think I do) the appeal of role models.
But to fall for a man like Logan Paul, who is not just hollow, but obviously mean and a pathological liar... that's... inexplicable; and the only explication I can find is that these normal, non-stupid people were overcome by greed, and put their critical mind on hold (let alone their sense of morality).
- Quarrelsome 4y agoI mention the spectrum. Just because they're not visibly drooling or don't have any obvious disabilities doesn't mean they're a entirely competent. Childhood neglect for example is an intersection rarely seen in a place like this because it barely intersects with the lives of most professionals who tend to come from more supportive backgrounds. However it still exists and I would argue is considerably more prevalent than you're possibly giving it credit for. To have absolutely zero empathy for people with considerably less fortunate backgrounds when they need our support the most demonstrates a dearth of compassion IMHO.
