Might I suggest the problem is capitalism. Without the everpresent threat of homelessness and starvation forced on us by the landlords, rampant price gouging of necessary goods like food, and the anti-lottery we all play every single fucking day with our own health, artists wouldn't need nearly so much compensation for their work. Piracy wouldn't matter, or even be required as a concept. I dream of living in a world without capitalism, but we don't. Don't hate the player, hate the game.

I notice you're out of the loop. The market demographics they're referring to are trans women. It's a bit of a meme that trans women like monster zero ultra, and trans women want estrogen not testosterone. Hope that helps.

Yeah honestly it doesn't seem like a good thing. If they don't cancel it after one season, how long till they enshittify it with their stupid fucking Netflix rules? How long until some executive doesn't like the message they're sending and meddles? How long until the creators leave over creative differences, leaving Netflix to parade the hollowed out taxidermy husk stuffed with product placement and ad space until no one watches anymore?

A lot. The answer is it could fuck things up a lot worse than what we have.

Here in America we have great wars, the best wars, possibly ever. We do war so well we fight on both sides, and we always win. We're so good at war, we keep it civil. The most civil of any war, possibly ever.

Yeah and they changed a bunch of my settings in the mobile app to shove their recommended garbage in my face again. I'm quickly settling on fuck Mozilla. Only my own laziness is holding me back from switching right now.

This implies the billionaires actually work for their money, when in reality they don't, they exploit the labor of others.

I remember thinking this when I was a kid. It's such a stupid idea in hindsight it's almost funny. The world literally runs on math, and some of the highest paid careers require a strong understanding and application of math. It's the closest thing we have to magic and people think it's not useful in practical everyday life.
