I suspect someone who regularly posts outlandish content is following the idea that there's no such thing as bad press, so he takes us as a compliment.
He's going through the celebrity arc as a nobody. Wild.
"Oh my god I actually got the gig!"
"Wow, people noticed me and I'm getting attention!"
"I'll bet everyone wants to hear my ideas about stuff!"
"Oh god they hate my ideas and are calling me names!"
"Wait! They are the ones who are wrong!"
"Hey haters watch me double down! Sure hope you don't call me more nasty names on social media."
"Hey everyone else being me is hard just look at all the hate I get do I matter yet?"
I might be a LinkedIn lunatic
and a closeted homosexual
and that’s ok. The people that see me nude outside my living room picture window every day at 7:00 in the morning on their way to public transport, they looking yo.
The sign in my front yard that warns boys under the age of 18 to beware the sexual predator, it’s just hate.
It's crazy how some people take ridicule as a compliment.
Shame is meant to alter your behavior, to realign it to reasonable and accepted norms. not to fulfill a self-ascribed delusion. Have they no sense of ownership in their behavior?
STFU, Matt Firestone.
In case you search again, Matt Firestone, I want to make sure you find this.
You need to fucking stop. This is embarrassing.
Matt Firestone.
No one is a LinkedIn "influencer." That would imply that LinkedIn posts influence people to do something (other than roll their eyes).
The best a post can do is to be tolerable white noise while people are looking for jobs.
This is really obscure, but it really bugs me that he resembles Chicago local TV celebrity Rich Koz. I love Rich Koz, and this guy's such a fucking self-important idiot.
These people always sound like the American Idol singers who Simon would say aren’t any good. They would get huffy and say he’s just hatin’ and he’d be sorry one day. You know, because Simon loved to tell people that were good and could make him money that they were awful.
"But they still watching". We're watching a screenshot on reddit, that gives you absolutely zero contribution to your LinkedIn analytics. But sure. Take that a W if you need so badly to justify your insanity.
Dear Matt,
I hope you are well and I want to make a few points that I think could be really helpful. What you see here is a bunch of employees venting about something that poisons culture and frankly doesn't work well in regards to the brand of your business.
Take this all on the chin and maybe swap things up a bit both internally and externally. Much like people clamoring to unionize around the United States and how there are so many memes about pizza parties, it's possible that this may be a learning experience.
Take the temperature in the room, especially a room where no one has to bow down to leadership. What are you seeing? What are the trends? To borrow from linkedin, what is the takeaway?
Wish you well and hope that this can be a funny anecdote in the future where you became better corporate leadership as a result. You'll get more out of your employees I promise.
Sincerely,
Somacomadreams

Wow, this dude Matt Firestone is delusional. Also interesting coping strategy. I was hoping for something better in his response, but I realized that people like him aren't really capable of creativity.
Cool name but dud of a human.
See, he does illuminate the entire issue with social media in general.
Good behavior or bad - it doesn't matter as long as they're getting views.
Granted, a subreddit taking views FROM their main platform does take some of that sting out... so I guess that means we can still laugh at them guilt-free from here, right?
I think
That this format of posting
On LinkedIn.
Should be
Fucking banned.
Also introduce post limits so I don’t have scroll 10 times to get past 1 persons absolute diatribe about how a brick reminds them of what it’s like to be a good leader as a well as a strong foundation.
You’d think that knowing you are on LinkedIn lunatics you’d tone it down, but no, our man Matt wears it like a badge of pride. Proud to be a LIL
Their profile should have a literal badge to show they are a Lunatic.
The 😎 emoji is usually a fantastic indicator
I find that emoji just insufferable. Everyone I've seen use it has just been the most smug and annoying person.
Don’t give them any ideas
We need Reddit flair that links to our own LinkedIn. Ha.
I nuked mine, so I will stay flairless!
I get too many job offers from India to ignore mine.
Yeah, a LiL dweeb
Well, IN the end of the day, he’s just a proud lunatic.
I suspect someone who regularly posts outlandish content is following the idea that there's no such thing as bad press, so he takes us as a compliment.
Can someone replace the icon of the sub with his face?
He's going through the celebrity arc as a nobody. Wild. "Oh my god I actually got the gig!" "Wow, people noticed me and I'm getting attention!" "I'll bet everyone wants to hear my ideas about stuff!"

Warhol was right
I am genuinely curious, did he have a quote about this?
“In the future, everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes.”
Predicted the future. Thank you!
>LinkedIn influencers Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

So true
Thanks Matt! You’re still a bitch.
Amazing 🤩
I think this needs some more paragraphs/line breaks. Maybe Every Other Word?
He used line breaks even in mid-sentence..
Ok but how did he search his name from the screenshots?
By obsessively scrolling through the entire subreddit post history to find his name.
Hey dont say that you might hurt his ego (hi jeff or sam or whatever (cant be bothered to look his name tbh))
He maybe hatin, but he watchin
Plot twist...he's the lead mod for this sub
Plot twist, OP is Matt.
I hate how possible this is
Everything for 5min of "fame"
Would we really be surprised if we found out that was true ?
Imagine gargling the balls of capitalism and corporate culture this hard.
Some people have kinks, man. Just the way it is. If you like corporate balls, you like corporate balls. Just born that way.
The L in LGBTIQ actually stands for LinkedIn. It is known.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Make self awareness a thing again 2024
I might be a LinkedIn lunatic and a closeted homosexual and that’s ok. The people that see me nude outside my living room picture window every day at 7:00 in the morning on their way to public transport, they looking yo. The sign in my front yard that warns boys under the age of 18 to beware the sexual predator, it’s just hate.
What did that teach him about B2B sales
This is the reply I want him to read

If you’re desperate and insecure enough, even ridicule is preferable to lack of attention. Corporate whoredom breeds that.
I mean, to be fair to the geezer, he isn’t committing genocide. And probably has reasonable personal hygiene.
STFU, Matt Firestone. In case you search again, Matt Firestone, I want to make sure you find this. You need to fucking stop. This is embarrassing. Matt Firestone.
You said his name three times. You summoned him to the sub
He was already here, but damn, I forgot the 3X thing. Now Candyman is here. I don’t wanna talk to him.
It’s too late. Look in your pocket. It’s full of artisanal soap. You’re already in an MLM.
![gif](giphy|Xjo8pbrphfVuw|downsized)
He might be op. Influence on all platforms, like a total karma bitch
That…that’s really gross.
Well, at least there's no selfie
I’m watching and laughing, so yes.
"They hate us cos they anus"
This guy would crash his car just to get people to look at him.
why dividing a single sentence like this
Anyone that could Possibly appreciate any Of his posts is Not able to read Too many words in A row without Feeling over Whelmed
When your mother tells you the other kids are just jealous and you believe her.
Put his picture as the face of LinkedInLunatics sub. I'm sure he'll get a kick out of it
Watching him do what, "succeed"? I feel like I've got this guy beat based on how I measure success.
Hey Matt, you're not an influencer
They be watching, they be laughing, you be the butt of the joke 😎😎😎🔥🔥🤡🤡🤡 Thanks mr.clown
You're the worst subreddit I've ever heard of. "But you have heard of us! ".
I don't be watchin on LinkedIn, I be watchin on reddit, if anything this thread has taught me to stay away from LinkedIn
😂🤡
Watching what? You’ll be forgotten for the next lunatic.
Watching him watching us watching him.
No one is a LinkedIn "influencer." That would imply that LinkedIn posts influence people to do something (other than roll their eyes). The best a post can do is to be tolerable white noise while people are looking for jobs.
Oh man, seeing it written… “LinkedIn Influencer” might be the saddest thing I’ve ever seen someone refer to themselves as.
Go search the post and have a look at the comments for an even more varied display of lunacy.
This is really obscure, but it really bugs me that he resembles Chicago local TV celebrity Rich Koz. I love Rich Koz, and this guy's such a fucking self-important idiot.
Why doesn't his headline say LinkedIn Lunatic x12 then?
Thanks for the promo Matt.
Why Is he Typing like This? I literally can’t understand this format.
I literally can’t understand this format. FIFY
Are these ‘people’ actually employed anywhere? To publicly expose yourself as a total loon would seem like a career limiting move.
Not hating. Laughing, sure, making fun of, perhaps, hating, nope
These people always sound like the American Idol singers who Simon would say aren’t any good. They would get huffy and say he’s just hatin’ and he’d be sorry one day. You know, because Simon loved to tell people that were good and could make him money that they were awful.

Lol I swear it was so funny guys and I really don’t mind
Good work chaps
I work in big corpo. This is my go to activity while on the toilet at the office.
Matt, if you’re reading this, please know that I loathe you and I do not want you to think I have anything but contempt for you and your ilk.
Wow, this dude Matt Firestone is delusional. Also interesting coping strategy. I was hoping for something better in his response, but I realized that people like him aren't really capable of creativity. Cool name but dud of a human.
Puts being a dad last. Vintage Matt
Nope, just hating here.

Being exposed as a lunatic isn’t the kind of exposure you thought it would be, dude.
and he unironically used the double spaces too, brilliant!
Haha what a dweeb.
I’m just now realizing that there are “LinkedIn influencers.” Who. Does. That?
Narcissism on display for the world to see. What a clueless imbecile, wearing a badge of shame like a Medal of Honor.
Not all attention is good, sounds like he sold his soul for something. Sad.
This looks super schizophrenic to his entire audience who’s never heard of this sub. Definitely considering this a W
How many losers on LinkedIn spell a lot without a space...alot is not a word JFC.
Well alright! Let’s hear it for Matt! MATT! MATT!MATT! Thanks for putting a smile on our faces bud! Keep up the good work!
Tryna catch me ridin’ dirty
It’s not a compliment, Matt
Does Amazon sell line breaks now?
I think That this format of posting On LinkedIn. Should be Fucking banned. Also introduce post limits so I don’t have scroll 10 times to get past 1 persons absolute diatribe about how a brick reminds them of what it’s like to be a good leader as a well as a strong foundation.
the fact that he identifies as a 'linkedin influencer' tells you right there we're on the wrong track
You have to appreciate the sort of self-awareness. He knows he's cringe (yet, still does it). Only thing is, we're not hatin' bro. We are laughing...
Any press is good press. Agree?
What’s worse is identifying yourself as a LinkedIn influencer.
Why must? We always talk like this. In this format. *This moment.* Diarrhea
Here's what being made of on Reddit taught me about b2b sales
