I saw a 60 minutes segment yesterday that made me cringe. So basically it was just jacking off some air purification company and treating their CEO as such an expert on the matter that it took me 5 minutes to tell that he wasn’t a government official from the CDC, because that’s how the host treated him. The CEO treats it like such a gamechanger for human health that it isn’t only progressive but profitable. So the whole thing was an ad for his air purification system to sell to land owners/ businesses. It’s a decent idea, but the fact that it’s being gatekept due to the greed of business owners/landowners (and the greed of this CEO for charging exorbitant prices for something that is supposed to be great for humanity’s future health) SHOULD be eye opening to more people as to what capitalism cares about. Money over everything. To clarify the ~~ad~~ segment was mostly about how helpful this would be with dealing with covid. They say “well we could all go back to work and not do online anymore” which basically admits that they don’t care about covid. If they did they’d be all for staying at home and keeping cases down. It also is just a way to be like “pls buy building space, pretty pls with a multi-thousand dollar cherry on top?”
