"Could you talk about the disingenuous moral grandstanding behind the marketing strategies of corporations (e.g., Burger King selling gay pride burgers) when these types of corporations do the least possible for their own workers...[j]ust about the overall hypocrisy and the shamelessness of these corporations...and if corporations should be [morally neutral or withhold their moral position from the public] when that could set a bad precedent as corporations could be mistaken to be trailblazers" - Christopher

0:00 Salutations – Do you prefer longer videos (50+ minute video essays) or shorter videos (20- minute video essays)?
6:46 The rhinoplasty video
8:30 Fast fashion and buying fast fashion (also at 1:45:39)
14:25 Voting for our next technocratic/epistocratic leader of the “free” world – Elon wins…over Zuckerberg’s toes (“VOTE RESULT: Elon Musk would be the most suitable leader in a potential technocracy.” [Zahra Bahjawi])
25:15 Quiet quitting explained
34:10 The myth of Americans hating their jobs | Why I loved my retail job | Labour pre, during and post-pandemic
45:55 “How do you feel about the people who just want to get their work done and go, no socialising intended?” (Mexican Kitchen)
49:40 friendships at work and the daunting feeling of being ‘replaceable’
56:33 QUESTION TO CHAT: Who enjoys interacting with their co-workers? Thumbs up or down
1:04:45 Nosy, gossipy colleagues (and why I love them)
1:08:56 “Do you think millennials are overeducated?” (Eckendenker)
1:21:24 Burger King – What do you think of the ‘Pride whooper’? | Why corporations fail to genuinely connect to their consumers re. social issues
1:28:40 Marketing at Gen Z
1:34:30 Johnny Cash
1:35:07 Is corporate wokeness dead?
1:39:25 The corporate apology
1:43:16 “This reminds me, corporations don't just profit off social issues, but issues themselves. Look at pharma in America profiteering off people BEING sick, so they want to keep people sick.” (Jerry Vang)
1:50:31 Being a ‘consumer’ vs. being a ‘GOOD CONSUMER’
1:55:46 Are Gen Z distrustful of corporations? (“As a Gen Z I think people don’t trust big corporations but trust small businesses too much.” [Paradox Junky] | “Gen Z are very materialistic but in a different way I think.” [Veronica])
2:03:25 EA Games and Crunch Culture – efficiency over art
2:11:41 QUESTION TO CHAT: If your employer had to pick either being socially conscious or rewarding its existing employees with benefits and rewards, which would you prefer it do? (“Inclusive marketing is way cheaper than employee benefits!” [hakkun1]) (and also 2:26:59)
2:13:35 “I don’t understand why you allow yourself to go to Primark.” (Noah Brown)
2:19:01 “Asian governments banning the Sims is like China banning Winnie The Pooh because Pooh looks like Xi Jinping.” (Jerry Vang) – “Your social credit score would skyrocket.” (Mexican Kitchen) | “Purge me Xi Jing Daddy!” (Ellis Hayward)
2:24:53 Video game development then vs. now | Corporate monopolies and why we look to corporations vs. elected representatives
2:39:35 I’m going in 7 minutes
2:40:15 Who is responsible for modern work/consumer culture (now and in the future)? Corporations or their customers?
2:46:14 Shareholders and their power
2:56:12 Feet (“Will we be seeing your grippers in the video?” [Mexican Kitchen]) – Why are feet so weird? | Joshua Kregg’s Tarzan feet | Veronica’s ballerina feet | Liam Neeson’s feet
3:13:49 Teeth (“I bought this Kendall Jenner teeth whitening pen and it smelled so bad I had to throw it away.” [Veronica])
3:21:11 Goodbyes and next video
