I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

The supreme race grifter of our age being paid by a massive multinational media corporation to write/direct another passion play for braindamaged white liberals is the most 2021 thing I can think of.

Why do all superheroes wear really tight outfits? I’d like to see Clark Kent or Bruce Wayne in some JNCO’s or something
