I hate the word ‘Consumer’ or I mockingly call it ‘CONSOOMER’. Because that’s to imply everyone in the world is just cattle, but with wallets. We’re no longer customers. We’re consumers now. And a consumer’s purpose is to consume shit, whatever is put out there. Got money? Shut up and consume, it’s what corporate interests and capitalism itself thrive on. Consume and consume.
Oh and a big one I rather spun into another comment.
This one makes me cringe so hard - when YouTubers ask to “leave a comment down below”, or even “in a comment section down below” or refer to “description down below”.
Good grief, does this “Down Below” fellow pay everyone for advertising? Can you just fucking stop? I know there’s a comment section, I know where it is, down and below is redundant, and in fact, don’t tell me what to do, I’ll comment if I feel like it, thank you very much. Also how about some originality? At least some keep trying to come up with new synonyms to tell me to “smash” the like button, but the comments, same shit everyone.
Gawd I hope YT starts penalising this at some point.
The only reason they do it is because their analytics tell them it works. Same with the subscribed vs not subscribed graph that so many of them flash on screen nowadays. Granted the ones I watch at least get creative with the commentary surrounding that one.
