Death to America
Hexbear stop declaring an entire industry's workers to be scum to show how cool and edgy you are challenge (impossible)
Lol aren't you the same guy who was decrying all tech workers as horrible because of AI art like a week ago?
"Yeah so I mainly do copy for non-profits, it's not super lucrative but I feel like I'm making a difference helping-"
"Kill yourself"
???
Yes, it’s the handful who do non profit work that I was clearly targeting. On c/memes.
I'm glad you're okay with including them in the crossfire. The nonprofit MarComms workers I know will be glad that, at the very least, you weren't targeting them specifically when you said they should kill themselves.
I'm perfectly aware of how diseased the ad industry is (hell, how much of a disease it is) and the sick, manipulative people who run it. I grew up around it and believe me, I could tell you stories. I still think it's total bullshit to issue a blanket condemnation to the third of a million people (in the US alone!) who do that work. Hell, I almost went into it when I got out of college. Should I have killed myself if I stuck with it?
I get the sentiment you're going after and I'm sorry to be so vehement, but the way you're saying it is inflammatory at best.
It's still funny to me that "vote with your wallet" gets unironic usage. If we have to vote with our wallet and someone else has a larger wallet than me that's not exactly a fair vote then is it??
Carlin had it right, you work in advertising or marketing? Go swallow a 12 gauge
:cringe:
The "open office" concept is absolute cancer, fuck open offices. I don't want to hear your stupid phone calls or listen to your dumb ass music I'm trying to FOCUS ON MY ACTUAL FUCKING JOB :agony-consuming:
