Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. 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.

maybe the guy with the top hat and monocle will be made to be a Donald Trump figure, and it will be about how capitalism is bad

Going by Barbie it'll play superficial lip service to the most digestible version of a popular political stance (in this case probably some zoomery anticapitalist thing) while justifying and romanticizing the structures that uphold the very thing it's purportedly skewering, serving as an extremely effective piece of corporate marketing PR for the people of Hasbro
