The problem is who can you give money to for entertainment if not to the same 3 corps who have bought everything, and how else can you protest them doing stuff that's outrageous even by their standards?

The fuck clowns are buying up our culture. It's hard to not participate in it. I don't play these kinds of games, but I've nothing on people who do. We should beat up the fuck clowns until they serve society again.

And just to be clear, I am advocating violence in the form of stringent regulations binding corporations towards socially beneficial paths. I advocate for violent anti-trust measures to the point even the execs don't know who is still working for them and who has been broken off to another company to compete freely. And I want worker protections that cause mind-bending fear in wage thieves.

How about we just not advocate violence at all? Regulations can be helpful but also the government needs to make sure it is not creating unconstitutional laws that violate people's rights, and that includes their right to make bad choices. Otherwise the law will end up more authoritarian than free.

Sorry, I went too deep into sarcasm in there. I wasn't advocating for violence, just laws protecting society and people that are strong enough to deter corps from breaking them.
