“If you’re looking for the next big thing, and you’re looking where everyone else is, you’re looking in the wrong place.” – Mark Cuban
TikTok entered the advanced world in 2016 when Snapchat garnered massive fame and a following that the former could hardly match. People and businesses then were more inclined toward the social media landscape, using it to connect to a broad audience. TikTok, during the initial days of its launch, was a distant cry as it failed to attract followers from developed countries. But still, it made its ground in the third-world countries, with people from developed nations such as America staying aloof from the fun fare it offered.
With time, its popularity grew, and so did its followers, and soon it became a platform to sell different kinds of content. However, one line that has become the hallmark of TikTok is that most of its notable content creators are affiliated with the sex trade or are associated with vine video creation, with the former thriving as it conquered the platform like it’s their playground.
This was a much-needed step, given the precarious situation the previous generation of sex workers endured for a long time, even if they were vying for other jobs. But with a social media platform that offered them plenty of opportunities, they were able to find work of their choice. During the COVID-19 pandemic, when lockdowns became a norm restricting huge swathes of the population to their homes, a crisis was in the making that unleashed waves of uncertainty and cast a gloom over our societies. However, TikTok became the life shelve as it helped sex workers find online work and a form of entertainment for those besieged in their homes by the Covid-19 pandemic. It offered them a platform where they could connect with their fans through videos from the comfort of their homes. It was a win-win situation for everyone. But things drastically changed when TikTok owners decided to close down these accounts.
Most of the owners of such accounts have improved their situation to the extent that they earn lucrative income without needing a physical presence outside. Yet, the judgmental attitudes of the public laid numerous obstacles for them. The storm of criticism led to TikTok authorities banning many accounts permanently, while some ended up being deleted. One well-known account that met a similar fate belonged to Waltsie H Risner, famously known as Wallie Sue and Weeb Empress.
For Wallie, life had never been a bed of roses growing up in a family of 13 (biological and non-biological) siblings under a guardian who subjected her to mental abuse. Wallie always felt trapped in a box, with no escape in hindsight. When matters reached a boiling point, she eventually gathered the courage to reach out to Tirus, who picked her up and thus began their TikTok journey. Yes, Tirus had to put extra effort into getting rid of her toxic guardian, but eventually, things started to look good – but more obstacles were there.
Tirus and Wallie are the most banned couple on TikTok, with 47 counts in the last two years. Wallie, in particular, has been banned four times from Instagram. Most people would give up, but they turned out to be different. Tirus holds Wallie in high regard and claims he has recently found success because of her. After she was released from guardianship, she became the queen of TikTok, with Tirus by her side. Fame and fortune awaited them not just with TikTok but also OnlyFans too. She has achieved the top 0% on OnlyFans, which is astonishing.
Even after winning fame and fortune that many cherish, the Weeb Dynasty isn’t stopping anytime soon. With the collaboration of content marketers, the powerhouse couple has started their eCommerce store. The plan is to not rely on these platforms but to lure the fans towards their website. That’s not all! The couple wants to educate those who wish to earn from TikTok and OnlyFans.
The Weeb Dynasty, particularly Wallie, believe that the bans are mere oppression tools exercised by these tech giants, but the move to ban them has only motivated her further. So, she wants to use her experience to help others lead their lives on their terms, even if all the stacks are against them.
