We're truly engaged in spiritual warfare, aren't we?
I was just watching stuff on youtube and I had a seven minute ad pop up in front of me. Curious, I decided to see what such a long ad could be for.
After watching about three minutes of it, all I could conclude was that it was for some sort of gaming clan. The entire thing consisted of poorly-shot GTAV footage, and there was apparently some sort of story to what I was watching, but the acting was so hate-laden and cursive that I had trouble deducing what was going on other than it was some sort of young man's power fantasy. It was pretty fucked up, considering that such a vague and aggressive message was being promoted, but I figured there must be a reasonable explination for this. I decided to check out the channel being promoted, since I figured the youtube shills would promote anything so long as it was a big enough cash-cow.
Did I find that cash-cow? Nope. The channel had less than 3000 subscribers. They clearly weren't popular, so promoting this channel - as damaging as it was - didn't have any immediate monetary benefits for youtube. The only other explination I could think of was that this clan had paid youtube a bunch of money in order to promote their channel, in which case that is still fucked up, as the channel was complete archonic trash.
Needless to say this shook me pretty bad, but I decided to move on a tried watching another video - what do I get? Another ad for one of those awful cookiecutter mobile games, this time trapping the viewer in with very shallow gameplay footage and an animated woman with massive breasts slowly walking up to the camera, which then focused solely on her breasts. That's when I figured that something other than just greed is going on.
Am I crazy, /fringe/? Has anyone else had these thoughts? I know /pol/ would immediately attribute these things to the Jews, but I'm not so sure. Even though I've always been suspicious of our awful consumerist society, I always just chalked it up to human greed. But now, I'm beginning to think there is some sort of darker reason for this greed, other than just "I want more stuff." Even if you're a status-obsessed, money-hungry asshole, you'd still probably find using tits to get kids to play mass-produced mobile games to be going too far. But yet this is happening, right in front of our faces, all across the world. There has to be some sort of darker force at play here, that's the only way to explain this. This has gone beyond just selfish greed - this is now the rape of minds for the sake of growing your own power, something that only dark spirits would try to do. Human greed alone isn't that power, right? I really need more opinions on this.
Peace.
