Good to see people agree on this. The way that gambling in sports has flourished really targets and is detrimental to young men, IMO. I’ve noticed that younger men tend to feel it’s normal to risk a significant amount of money gambling on almost all sports, to include E-sports, when really it shouldn’t be something they think about constantly.
I like gambling as much as the next person, and I feel like you should be allowed to if you’re responsible, but I think we shouldn’t be glorifying gambling like it’s just something everyone does. Shame on all these celebrities using their status to trick younger people into gambling.
I don’t mean to pick on this comic, rather the culture in general, but this self deprecation, everything is shit trope is getting a little played out. There’s probably 50 variants of this joke on everyone’s feed and it’s kinda just a downer.
Gambling is addictive (lemmy.ml)
