it makes me feel one thousand years old sometimes to remember coming of age in the, like, adbusters/culture jamming/anticonsumerist left of the 90s/early 2000s. there is a ton to criticize about those politics, but i feel so adrift when people i feel largely aligned with are so straightforwardly thrilled about stuff like this, so i am truly grateful for your well-articulated "THIS SUCKS ACTUALLY"
