Is Shaq the most recognizable person on earth?
- Thread starter GOAT
- Start date
This shit is American culture man
Theres a national daily broadcast entitled "World News" that doesn't speak about anything outside of America
I've come to view shit like that as a deliberate strategy for holding this country to its status quo... if the public were actually cross referencing itself with the world, as opposed to an occasional curated atrocity without context, there's no way the infrastructure would have been able to atrophy to its current state...among other things...and the nearsightedness is stunting black politics as well...etc etc

Obama, 1st black president, multi time winner of the most admired man in the world.
Trump, the all time worst president, united the entire world against him.
Jordan, the worlds most famous athlete, from an era before media was segmented.
The problem for today's celebrities is there are too many entertainment choices. Someone like Paul McCartney was famous in a time when there were only 3 channels total, theres just not that kind of media concentration anymore

Disanthrope
Mindfucker. Inconvenient Truth + Necessary Evil
Picture is funny but its a papa john commercial. Shaq basically bailed out an anti black bigot by buying him out and saving his brand by becoming the face of it.
All business ain't good business imo
Bill Gates lowkey is up there
He's been around long enough for the evolution of the PC... Virtually everyone uses Microsoft, and his name is firmly tied to the brand.
Also most people if you ask who's the richest person in the world, Bill Gates would have been on that list in people's minds since the 90s
So alive...
Obama, Bill Gates, The Queen, Cristiano Ronaldo, Michael Jordan... Madonna for special mention?!
But if we're talking past 50 years dead or alive, then Michael Jackson FTW easy

Bruh... Shaq had a whole video game for the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive, Super Nintendo, Sega Game Gear, Game Boy, AND the Commodore Amiga, and since the Amiga was dead here in the States, that was a version strictly for y'all across the pond.
I know y'all wasn't playing the game like "'ere now, who's this bloke on the cover???"
