Don't forget consent-o-matic

I might not be getting it, but why does a theme of trees/nature specifically counter the MAGA hat like that?

What is your point?

Until corporations realise they can cheat and change the game by bribing politicians to tip the scales in their favour.

Business exists only for one thing; exploiting systems, even if that means meta-exploitation, since that's the highest form of exploitation, and the inevitable endgame.

Anti-adblocker paywall, does anyone have a copy-paste? Or a TLDR?

It's more explicit, on TV, in sound-bite chunks.

In a world where everything revolves around pushing the most information inside a short attention span, this can matter a lot. A clip can go viral, become a meme, become repeated and played again and again, it doesn't matter what someone did over a few months if everything they hear about that person is what they did in a couple of seconds.

Having trump calling someone the N-word, on video, would become a lightning rod of confirmation that people can shove into others' faces, and show them that "do you want to vote for this man"? It doesn't take 1 hour of explanation, it takes 10 seconds of a sideline TikTok video.

This could turn around any moment though, currently the spotlight is on Harris because she's new to the race, and we're seeing the GOP reactions. But once the GOP gets their members properly turned around to a strategy, probably in a month, they'll have found something to talk about that brings trump in the spotlight again.
