The whole Jake Paul thing seems like such a perfect encapsulation of the era we’re in.
The unearned hubris of a random white dude.
Vapid, unthinking disbelief in actual expertise.

Okay this is offensive on so many levels…
But it’s also funny as shit that he publicly floated naming it after *his wife*, and then said “nah” and just went ahead and named it after himself.
