Used to ask this question alot. But then I realized, its to be part of a community of sorts, either in a random twitch streamer's chat or on reddit. I kinda get it now, and I while I wish people would put this money towards either smaller creators or more charitable causes I do also respect peoples right to spend however they want.

You have the right to do stupid things, nobody is denying it.

While I personally think its silly, if the people get that sense of community from doing I wouldn't outright call it stupid.

In germany it demands on the conditions. If you get too much, they will ask why and where you got it. So, if you get small amounts it's totally ok, if it gets more you will get problems.
