They’re not going to be building malls and warehouses if no one is buying shit anymore.

No, but maybe we could encourage the Orcas.

Any new construction job is going to crash because no one will have any money to build new anymore. I’m already seeing stalled projects near me. Not that I have a big problem with that. They like to cut down and cleared trees to build a warehouse instead of tearing down old buildings.

The Learn To Code hype was being driven by employers to create a work surplus to drive wages down. Now those same employers think they can use AI instead.

NYPD has always been shit. Yes, it’s probably worse now, but they’ve never been the good guys.

That’s by design.

Until the drugs wear off or they need to go home early, then The Implications keep them there.

Then they weren’t paying attention or didn’t care.

Hollywood is a network of interlocking blackmail. They all know each other’s dirty little secrets and Leto has a sex cult island he’s using as a honey pot to get a bit more dirt on other people then they do on him.

Just nine? The dude has a sex cult island.

I didn’t see that part.

Isn’t that Princess Leia?

Pretty sure you also had to pay royalties fees for radio/Internet radio regardless of where or not you played their music.

Did you actually watch the dub? I don’t know how you can watch the show and not see the intent. Fuji TV just said they weren’t interested in micromanaging the dubbing or marketing of the show. The script was written in the writer’s room and the voice actors were involved. Dubs, whether legit or shitposts, don’t just happen.

Found a con interview with one of the VAs. Some of the finer details were off, but jokes were very much intentional.

“how to get unauthorized or free access to audio or audiovisual content.”

In the future, public domain media will be banned for harming corporate profits.

A marketer’s pride would never let them tell the truth.

I would be very happy if advertisement all looked like this.

It can also be propaganda against something that obviously true. It can be used to gaslight people into not believing their own eyes. Like being told that Trump isn’t leading to a more hateful country and it’s only twitter memes that make him look bad.

The “you are not immune to propaganda” meme may also be propaganda depending on who and when it’s being used.

I also run a lot of ad blockers and tracking blockers as well as educate myself on how advertisers use people’s insecurities against them. The “How TV Ruined Your Life” series is a pretty comprehensive. Coercion by Douglas Rushkoff is also great for immunizing yourself.

edit: Updated with links. The core of Coercion is still relevant, but it’s tech/internet perspective was from the early 2000s.
