>>119747026You mean consumerism, right?
I've seen equally hideous shit from other countries, but Americans take it to the next level not because of any insidious reason but because the people making it are insanely out of touch.
I don't know if anyone has ever read the Sony email leaks, but executives at media companies act like fucking aliens trying to understand human social customs. They only get a small viewport of what real people like through the lens of hollywood and the media, but they're the ones that control hollywood and the media. So you get cringe shit like this that seems like an avante-garde parody of American consumerism before it sinks in that this is actually what one of these people thought would be cool.
