Hard to be desperate, there are plenty of reasons to dislike him.
Honestly just believing some pseudo-philanthropic character some guy made up for clicks if fucking weird and people need to learn to think critically about things.
4 0 ReplyI mean, he's a slimy character, and I don't like the guy at all, but he's either given or raised huge amounts of money to charity through his stunts.
And denying that happened just looks bad for you, to be honest.

Diddy raised a bunch of money too what's your point?
