Is the answer not chattel slavery?
There's this advert on YouTube shorts for some therapy app or service whatever and it's just vulgar.
It's this bearded dude filming himself washing his face and I guess the camera POV is on his basin or whatever.
The whole thing is meant to come across as though he is an influencer that you've not heard of, that this is a random video of his that you've stumbled across, and that this is just an observation that he's made about therapy that he's relaying to you whilst he exfoliates his putrid flesh.
I've nothing against therapy at all, but this commodification of it, and the way it dishonestly tries to sell it to you is simply capitalism all over. Most people probably need therapy because of the trauma this system has caused on people and yet here it is trying to sell you the cure as well.
To top it all off, watching this 2010s hipster relic scrub his face with soap is nail curlingly vile and I have no idea what the angle is other than trying to make this not appear to be an advert.
Putrid flesh ? Is he a zombie ?
Did OP ask an LLM for the "most Lemmy question to ask"?
Federal Circuit court blocking the ban on noncompete agreements
Neocolonialism maybe?
Capitalism
