Ohhhh my goodness

Lmao Samer doesn't think writing about Portnoy is going to bring him down -- deep down he knows that Dave's telling the truth when he says he's un-cancellable. Dave has worked very long and hard to cultivate a fanbase that unquestioningly eats up and tries to replicate his behavior, and it's fully insulated him from any kind of real consequences for it. He's done amazingly at tricking a bunch of saps into setting him up for life.

And the continuous cycle of anti-Barstool media fits exactly into the business model in a way that benefits both sides. Portnoy keeps being able to play the rebel who happens to espouse mainstream executive beliefs which strengthens his fanbase's loyalty to him, and the people documenting his behavior get a guaranteed influx of views because he directs his simps to go click on their articles.

It's entirely symbiotic and a great business plan the guy has. As long as people like Samer see the opportunity for their outlets, they and Dave will keep directing the useful idiots to strengthen both brands.
