I'm glad these people are doing what they love. I'm equally as glad that I don't need to worry about them coming for my job in 15 years.
我很高興看到這些人都在做著自己喜歡的事情，同樣讓我感到高興的是，我完全不用擔心他們會在接下來15年里搶走我的工作。

Hopefully outsourcing and automation won't take your job either.
但愿你的工作不會被外包和自動化所取代。
You're probably going to be working for them tho
不過你可能會在將來替他們工作。
Don’t have to pay for their student loans either!
而且家長還不用替他們支付學生貸款！
@rgr010 in 15 years most of these people are going to be as irrelavent as millenials are now
@rgr010 這些人中的大多數都將在15年內變得無關緊要，正如現在的千禧一代。
No one is gunning for your forklift or manufacturing job bro.
兄dei，根本沒有人想搶你的叉車司機或者制造業(yè)工作。
u guys are all salty
你們這些人真是太酸了
I've always thought the same thing. Even Youtubers, I mean there's no longevity in this. At least my crappy 15/hour job I can keep for as long as I want. These "influencers" once they are out of their early 20s, their audience will also have grown up and they'll become irrelevant. That's if TikTok is still around in 10 years. Apps come and go all the time, look at Vine.
我一直也這么想。即便是油管UP主的壽命也是有限的。我那份時薪15美元的工作雖然糟糕，但是我能想干多久就能干多久。而這些“網紅”一旦過了25歲，他們的受眾也會跟著一起長大，屆時這些網紅便會無人問津。而且這一切還是建立在TikTok能在10年后繼續(xù)存在的前提上的。應用程序總是來來去去，看看當初的Vine就知道了。
In 15 years you'll still be breaking your you know what to make a living while they'll be retired on their estates.
15年后的你依舊在絞盡腦汁地尋思該如何謀生，而他們卻已經在自己的豪宅里退休了。
You’re right, especially since AI will take your job WAY sooner.
你說得對，因為你在被他們搶走工作之前很可能就已經被AI取代了。
I truly feel bad for the millions of kids now days who spend their free time watching other people's lives on a screen instead of going out and living their own
我真心為如今成千上萬的孩子們感到難過，他們將自己的空閑時間花在透過屏幕觀看別人的生活這種事情上，而不是出門去過自己的生活。
Watchu watching rn
那你現在又在看什么呢？
Damn I m offended
靠，我感覺受到了冒犯
Depressing future
令人沮喪的未來
It gives young people something to do. If school shooters were making TikToks instead of shooting people, this country would be better off
TikTok讓年輕人有事可做。如果校園槍手去拍攝TikTok視頻而非去開槍殺人的話，這個國家也能變得更好。
So many young kids/pre teens are like this. Even in my family. It’s so fuckin sad to see them literally waste their childhood.
如今有很多青少年都是這樣的，甚至我們家那些孩子也是如此?？粗麄冞@樣浪費自己的童年真是太tmd讓人難過了。
I'm so glad I was born and grew up in the 90s. I could not imagine having these kids mindsets.
我為自己出生并成長于90年代感到開心。我實在無法想象和這些孩子擁有一樣的心態(tài)會是怎樣一種體驗。
I'm even happier I was born in the mid 1950s. I look at my son and adult grandkids and although they have their degrees and make money legally but something's just off about them especially my grandkids. I think the last generation with a soul was kids born in the 1970s.
出生在上世紀50年代的我感到更加開心。我的兒子和成年孫輩們都上過大學并有一份合法的工作，但是他們真的有些不對勁，特別是我的那些孫輩們。我認為最后一代有靈魂的孩子出生在上世紀70年代。
But you know, we did all sorts of absolutely disturbing stuff in the 90s. Also it was way more dangerous, as a boy in a traditional masculine environment of the 90s, I had to fight all the time and prove that I'm strong, accept any challenge, even if it was dangerous for me etc. Everything had it's pro and cons.
但是你們知道的，我們在90年代也做過很多讓人感到非常不安的事情。而且我們干的那些事情更加危險。作為一個生活在90年代傳統(tǒng)男子漢環(huán)境中的男孩，我必須一直和人打架以證明自己的強大，我必須接受任何的挑戰(zhàn)，即便它們會讓我身陷險境。所有事情都有利有弊吧。

The word "influencer" exists because these people cannot pinpoint their skill or contribution to society. If they could, they would be called writers, painters, architects, composers, filmmakers, scientists, professors, doctors - i. e. the people who actually influence the world and better the life of mankind.
“網紅”這詞兒之所以會出現就是因為這些家伙無法確切說明自己的技能或是對社會的貢獻。如果他們真有本事的話，他們會被稱呼為作家，畫家，建筑師，作曲家，電影制作人，科學家，教授，醫(yī)生等等，就是那種能夠真正影響這個世界并改善人類生活的人。

“Content Creator” and “Entertainer” could also be used though. At least today, serving free entertainment to people is greatly appreciated and is just like creating a TV show.. Sure a lot of it is garbage, but they still can contribute in SOME way
不過他們也會稱呼自己是“內容創(chuàng)作者”和“藝人”啊。至少在如今，為人們提供免費的娛樂依舊是非常受歡迎的，就好像是在制作一個電視節(jié)目。這些內容確實大部分都是垃圾，但是他們仍然可以通過某種方式做出貢獻。
I'm gonna be honest, I think this is the worst possible decision a young adult could make. You are placing your livelihood, your basic needs, in the hands of an uncontrollable algorithm. You may argue, "Well, YouTubers do basically the same thing, how is that any different?" With Youtube being longform content, creators cultivate and nurture their own community. If Youtube somehow crashes or shuts down or changes, these creators can very well move to another platform while maintaining the same audience base. With this type of "content", you are making nothing of your own. None of your own dances, songs, even showing off your personality. No community is created around who you are besides maybe your looks, which will fade with time. What are these kids going to do when they're 27 and start to get wrinkles? What are they going to do when the advertisers at TikTok and their marketing teams refresh the platform, and change the algorithm to suit longform content, or original creation? This lacks foresight entirely, and is a decision that could only be made by those who are doomed to never fully mature.
說句實在話，我覺得這是一個年輕人能夠做出的最糟糕的決定。你把自己的生計和基本需求全盤交到一個不可控的算術手上。你可能會說“油管做的基本上也是同樣的事情，兩者之間有任何不同嗎？”由于油管是長視頻內容平臺，創(chuàng)作者可以培養(yǎng)出一個屬于自己的社區(qū)。如果油管崩潰，關閉或是發(fā)生變化的話，那么這些創(chuàng)作者完全可以轉移到其他平臺并保住自己原先的受眾。
而TikTok網紅制作的則是完全不屬于他們自己的內容。他們沒有自己的舞蹈和歌曲，甚至沒有彰顯他們自己的個性。除了外貌以外，沒有任何人會圍繞你建立一個社區(qū)，然而你的外貌是會隨著時間的推移而褪色的。當這些孩子到了27歲開始長皺紋時，他們還能做些什么呢？當TikTok的廣告商和營銷團隊開始更新平臺，改變算法以迎合長篇或是原創(chuàng)內容時，他們又該何去何從？他們這么做實在太缺乏遠見了，只有那些永遠都無法成熟的人才會做出這樣的決定。
Honestly this is actually a huge opportunity for all of them to make some money ,get a financial adviser,learn how to invest it and open other work opportunities if they use their platform wisely and responsibly . This is not necessarily A bad thing.
老實說，如果他們能夠明智和負責地使用這些平臺的話，那么這對他們而言實際上是一個巨大的機會，他們可以借此賺到錢，然后聘用財務顧問，學習如何投資，并獲得一些其他的工作機會。這并不一定就是一件壞事。
They are finessing other peoples attention for money, the real losers are all the people consuming TikTok
他們在利用他人的關注賺錢，真正的失敗者是那些觀看tiktok視頻的人們。
Kudos to the interviewer for being non judgmental and asking the right questions. It felt more like a dad being genuinely curious about what his kids are doing which was refreshing to see
向這名采訪者致敬，他并沒有對這些年輕人持有偏見，并且也提出了那些正確的問題。他給人的感覺就像是一位真心好奇自己的孩子在做些什么的父親。他的采訪讓人賞心悅目。
as a teen who’s on tiktok a lot, it’s so bizarre seeing them actually plan out such simple videos
作為一個經常上TikTok的青少年，看到他們拍攝這么簡單的視頻都需要提前策劃實在讓我匪夷所思。

I don't blame these influencers. I blame the society that made this possible. All we did was create another avenue for people to become rich and famous. Tbh, they're no different than Hollywood elites but they have the ability to reach out to our youth and influence their career paths.
我不會去怪罪這些網紅。我要怪的是讓這一切成為可能的社會。我們所做的不過是為人們創(chuàng)造了另一條致富成名的途徑罷了。說句實在話，他們和好萊塢的那群演藝圈精英并沒有什么區(qū)別。但是問題在于他們真的有能力接觸到我們的孩子并影響他們的職業(yè)道路啊。
Being a TikToker doesn’t mean that you shouldn’t get an education. There are a lot of Youtubers and TikTokers who go to college and still do what they love. Honestly, I’ll be happy for these people if they will never have to look for a job and will be able to live off of TikTok. But what I’ve learned is, you always need another plan to rely on. And getting an education, doesn’t only mean becoming an adult, it also means experiencing and learning what the world has to offer. It means being given the tools to create and shape our future who will one day be the future of the world. It means having the opportunity to do something big one day, and no one says you can’t be a TikToker at the same time.
成為一名抖音博主并不意味著你就該放棄教育。很多少上了大學的油管和抖音博主仍然在做著他們喜歡的事情。老實說，如果這些人永遠不用找工作，可以依靠TikTok養(yǎng)活自己的話，那么我會為他們感到高興。但是我的經歷告訴我，你總是需要另一個備用方案。接受教育并不僅僅意味著成為一名成年人，它還能讓你體驗和學習到這個世界為我們提供的那些東西，它意味著我們能夠被賦予那些能讓我們創(chuàng)造和塑造未來的工具。它意味著我們在將來可能會成就一番大的事業(yè)，不過沒有人說你不可以在上大學的同時成為一名tiktok博主。
As a young person, it's good to know that they are doing what they seem to be interested in and making a huge amount of money at this young age, for now. It's totally their personal decision, and nobody should judge them for that as long as it's not illegal. At the end of the day, they are the ones that will be fully responsible for their own action consequences. For those who are parents out there, social media nowadays is filled with a mixed bag of social trends, most of them are just misleading and shallow without any meaningful educational premise imo. Therefore, family connection and education should be exceedingly emphasized to effectively and timely counteract any bad consequences that might potentially be imposed on kids by the so-called "influencers."
作為一個年輕人，我很高興得知他們似乎在從事自己喜歡的事情，并且還能年紀輕輕就賺到一大筆錢（至少是在現在）。這完全是他們的個人選擇，只要他們不違法，沒有任何人有資格去評判他們。畢竟到了最后，他們終將會為自己的行為承擔所有的后果。而我想對觀看這個視頻的家長們說的是，如今的社交媒體上充斥著各種各樣的社會趨勢。在我看來，其中大多數都是膚淺且存在誤導性的，它們沒有任何的教育意義。因此家庭和教育需要更多地發(fā)揮作用，以有效并及時的抵消這些所謂的“網紅們”施加給孩子們的不良影響。
I’m not into TikTok but from what I’ve seen, the best content is from people who have careers and share their skills on the platform, like cobblers, or chefs. I’ve never understood the appeal of generic people just being good looking and making posts of themselves…existing…
我對TikTok不感興趣，不過據我所知，最出色的內容往往是那些從事某些專業(yè)工作的人所分享的技能知識，比如鞋匠或者廚師。我從不理解那些僅僅靠著好看的外貌在社交媒體展示自己的人們有什么吸引力。

I'm worried for people who are getting influenced by these influencers
我很擔心那些被這群網紅影響到的人們。

Don't worry bro.. tik tok is banned in India...
別擔心了，兄嘚。TikTok在印度被禁了...
But all these so called influencers shifted to Instagram Reels.
然后那些所謂的網紅都轉移到Instagram Reels上去了。
Honestly, they're choosing this over student loan debt and college, I can't say I blame them.
他們選擇TikTok而非背著學生貸款去上大學。老實說，我沒法怪罪他們。
When i was a young and teenager, i was riding bikes, playing basketball and other street games with my friends, personal conversations with my friends, adults and elderly in our community.. it is just so sad how social media influenced the kids today.. it seems like they are more superficial and materialistic..some kids today have depression.. too much pressure from society and social media.. hope there will come a time they realize that their value and worth is not base on the likes of people they don’t even know..
當我還是個青少年時，我會和我的朋友們去騎行，打籃球或者一起玩其他街頭游戲。我會和朋友以及社區(qū)里的成人、老年人交談。社交媒體對如今的孩子們造成的影響實在太讓人感到悲傷了。他們似乎變得更加膚淺和物質了，有些孩子還因此患上了抑郁癥。社會以及社交媒體給了他們太多的壓力...希望有朝一日他們能夠意識到自己的價值并不建立在那些陌生人對他們的點贊...
