Liz Macedo is making it clear that the whole 'choose to play' argument falls apart when you look at the gap between what influencers show and what viewers actually deal with. She says in 2024 she got an offer to earn 500 thousand reais every single month promoting a betting house but never even thought about taking it because she knew that cash would come from the sadness of thousands of people. The logic that anyone can just choose to gamble doesn't hold up when the person pushing it lives a life full of trips to countries, luxury bags, and chic products while the people watching are struggling financially. It creates this weird illusion where someone thinks they got rich by gambling just because they promote casinos but really it is just about the rich getting richer and the poor getting poorer which makes promoting this kind of thing a tremendous lack of empathy on so many levels. People ask how football will survive without these sponsorships but Liz asks if it is valid to sustain realities through the sadness of others at all. If you think that line of thinking is okay then maybe you need to really review who you are consuming from your heart. She is not just saying the prohibition of bets is something right but also something necessary for everyone involved.
