it's worse than that, i am a paying customer. i am a triple-a corpo stooge who goes through life without a single thought in my head other than media consumption, leaving not a single spare thought to the late-stage capitalistic oligopoly hellhole we find ourself in and which will inevitably kill us. i would never even think of researching unions, protests, or a proletariat uprising because i'm too busy keeping up with fucking... ice road truckers and whatever.

there, does that fill my ego-stroking quota for today? then fuck off with that shit, you're just stating the obvious as if it's revolutionary insight and derailing the conversation.
