I have seen a TON of ad postings for the Gamurs group which the article talks about. Every time I browse jobs, I see at least one of the websites they own having a vacancy. The job description is just abysmal, saying things like you're expected to make ~30 articles a month with around $20 per article. Glad this is being called out.

I'd accept the job, and then write the WORST assballs articles about how Mario isn't trying to save the princess. He's hunting her down to get more mushrooms. She's not being kidnapped. She's spending quality time with her husband. She's not a princess. She works at a white castle. Which back in the 80s, still had some of the old royal castle buildings in use.

And Luigi isn't his frightened little brother who won't go on adventures because he's scared. He's just some guy who cleans and flips houses.

And Princess isn't surrounded by her toads loyal servicemen. Those are dildos. Yes, ALL of them.

And then when they reject my work, I'd be like "Oh.......then you are NOT going to like my article of pacman taking drugs and being racist....."
