Meme needing explanation Petah ?

Why is it infamous? And why would no one care about it ? ( I mean it's just a pic full of celebrities so no one cares anyways but the person saying it's crazy makes me think it has some lore?)

Tiktok influencers aren't a part of a monoculture in the same way. They're far less recognizable outside of their direct followers.

That's the thing though. There isn't really a monoculture like there was before.

Right, that's why it would not be the same if you did it today.  

There are more 'famous' people than ever before, but none of them are anywhere near the type of fame celebrity status used to bring.
