    I’ll just say it:

    Selling useless shit that kills the planet by keeping billions of people addicted to wasting their finite lives is morally wrong.

    Nobody involved, whether it’s the company, influencers, or viewers will look back it from their deathbeds and see any good in it whatsoever.

      Nah, plenty of these people will look back fondly on their sports cars, cocaine and lush homes.

        I’m not so sure. What I’ve heard is that pretty much everyone thinks about how they were with the people in their lives.

        That’s because they didn’t waste their money on plastic China waste while jerking a screen…appears that they actually lived a fulfilling lives while plebs were “entertained”
