Tech Bro is angry at the guard who won't let him into the club

In the epic battle between a New York City bouncer wearing a fedora and a fur coat against two rich kids, it's pretty clear who's the winner.

In a viral TikTok video from user @theeuropeankid, which has garnered nearly half a million views, a tech executive and his friend are seen trying (and failing) to get into a club in New York City.

At the beginning of the clip, the executive man is held back as he almost shouts at the laid-back guard who does not want to let him in.

“Listen, I'll delete your Facebook account in three seconds,” the CEO threatened, then added that he would call his investors as if that would do anything. “Say hello for me,” the guard replies, unbothered.

After realizing that his threats will get him nowhere, the man tries to take the path of fame, telling the man that he is one of the 30 under 30 people in Furby magazine.

“You don't understand who you're messing with. I'm building an artificial intelligence company, okay. This is going to take over the world. Your kids are going to use my company. How do you feel about that?” Asked.

The other man, who you've probably forgotten about by now, chimes in with an almost sad tone, saying he doesn't understand why the guard always bothers him. “I don't appreciate the way you treat me,” he says. “It's disrespectful, I'm not in TSA pre-screening, okay? We're in America! We have rights!”

@theeuropeankid has posted several “annoying rich kid” videos, each with a title. These are clearly skits. We have no idea if he's actually rich, but he certainly does a good job of playing the rich kid.

This type of content easily falls into the category of “rage media.” This type of content aims to elicit a strong reaction, specifically anger and anger, to gain and retain views. Angry media are known for using inflammatory language, biased information, or in this case, showing extreme reaction.

“Because our attention is naturally focused on content that inspires negative emotions such as anger and fear, these incentives are now being built into social media algorithms.” Laura Miller writes for Slate. “The more we interact with this content, the crazier and more frightened we become.”

Whether people think the videos are real or not, they're making a lot of people angry in the comments, while others are shocked to see that the creator apparently has a twin.

“If he really had clout, he would make one call and someone would rush in to let him in,” one person said.

“My brother thinks everyone should treat him like a king,” another wrote.

“There are two of them??!” Reading the upper comet.

“My brother thinks he's in a movie…” the caption read.
