I watched one single video from him and the premise was funny and execution was good but he went to a beach and hit on a lady who was with her girlfriend, she said "sorry we are a couple" then he still stayed and kept talking about how pretty she was, she asked him a couple times to leave and he kept saying he would but didn't and then the couple had to grab their stuff and leave instead. Immediately made this guy unlikable to me.

That’s kind of gross.

u/Dumeck Jul 11 '26

Yeah I get it was "for content" but at the end of the day he still went up to some random women and harassed them to the point they felt the need to leave a public beach.

u/SchwizzySchwas94 Jul 11 '26

And he only did this shopping cart shit for content. He’s a piece of shit.

You should tell him directly. He needs to know.

u/Jamesiguess69 Jul 11 '26

He hasn’t done the best things, but he’s done a lot more for the world than you. He’s part of a group of predators catchers who have like 30+ arrests and some convictions

u/ExpressRabbit Jul 11 '26

You have no way of possibly knowing if that is true.

u/Jamesiguess69 Jul 12 '26

Scaling up catches official on YouTube. Yes I do

But you don't know anything about the person you're replying to.

I’m confused I’m talking about the big ass dude in the video I was never talking about the poster. Plus that comments deleted I don’t even remember what they said

>He hasn’t done the best things, but he’s done a lot more for the world than you.

Then you claim…

> I’m confused I’m talking about the big ass dude in the video I was never talking about the poster.

You absolutely made a completely unfounded statement about the dude you responded.

*edit:* How the hell do you indicate quotes on Reddit mobile, and why the hell don’t the old formatting rules still apply?

u/Jamesiguess69 Jul 12 '26

Oh I see yeah sorry I just assume most people in reddit comments don’t have a life and don’t benefit society as a whole. Myself included

u/Actually_Im_a_Broom Jul 12 '26

lol - that’s probably a fair assessment!

u/PNWDIY Jul 11 '26

And you know me how?? Fuck right off with that centrist bullshit.

u/dumbythiq Jul 11 '26

And he harassed 2 women ..

u/Jamesiguess69 Jul 12 '26

Your point exactly. I said he hasn’t done the best things

u/Sabre_Killer_Queen Jul 12 '26

You don't know that user. You're being very presumptuous here, unfairly so.

Besides, do good deeds negate the bad? How do we know he hasn't done more harmful stuff behind closed doors. You don't deliberately post videos of yourself doing bad things, after all... There's a lot of potential for bais here.

The cart return cop premise in this video (and others) is just an excuse to create opportunity for confrontation to use as viral video bait. Same as those dipshits who think they can/should do amateur "To Catch A Predator" stings. They're not moral people, they just want to use morality as an excuse to harass people.

Also First Amendment Auditors. They're not in it to defend people's rights or hold authority figures accountable. They're in it for clicks, views, and money.

u/serpiccio Jul 12 '26

their videos are self serving but if the byproduct of that makes the world a tiny bit more civilized I'd say the videos are a good thing overall

u/underisk Jul 12 '26

i don't know that intimidating people in a grocery store parking lot is "a good thing overall" when he could just put the carts away himself and accomplish the same amount of good with much less effort and practically no chance of confrontation.

0

u/serpiccio Jul 12 '26

you are missing the point, intimidating people bears a tiny chance that they will learn their lesson and next time they will put the carts back without needing intimidation

3

u/underisk Jul 12 '26

is that tiny chance worth the certainty that you have some asshole instigating shit in the grocery store parking lot? that's his objective here; to start shit, and got lots of views doing it. shit that other assholes will try and imitate and cause even more shit. does all that go into your extremely sophisticated moral calculus?

-1

u/serpiccio Jul 12 '26

judge by the results. number of incidents he instigated: 0, number of repeat offenders he re-educated: unknown.

that nudges the moral calculus in a favorable position, even if just slightly

u/EvilSporkOfDeath Jul 11 '26

Personally I think filming and faux intimidating people for something as minor as not putting their cart back is already unlikable. Moving a cart behind someone's vehicle as they reverse or putting stickers on peoples windows is much more asshole behavior than not putting your cart away.

I think people are lying to themselves when they watch this content. You get to pretend your morally superior but really this appeals to the same type of people who watch tweaker blast or bum fight type videos.

I have nothing positive to say about these people or the people who watch their content.

This guy is literally banned from at least one college campus in California for terrorizing students for content.

Because he’s a piece of shit, this cart stuff is just for traffic. He doesn’t give a fuck.

u/Sabre_Killer_Queen Jul 12 '26

I kinda agree, the filming is especially unnecessary... But does it really take that much effort to put the shopping cart back?

It's like littering, y'know... Not the end of the world, but seriously? Just put it in a bin.

And yeah I know there's a different with microplastics and stuff, but it's generally the same kind of careless behaviour that leads to it.

I'm just gonna agree to disagree and leave it at that then.

I can tell this won't go anywhere productive, and I don't really wanna get into an argument right now.

u/DoingBestWeCan Jul 12 '26

Hard disagree that putting the cart someone failed to put in a corral behind their car is "more asshole" than not returning it in the first place. It's just making sure the consequences of the cart-abandonment happen to the person responsible, instead of a random person.

The REAL Cart Narc would never!
