Welcome to the internet
Have a look around
Come to the coast, we’ll have a few laughs.
He really was smart in writing that song (helps that the song is good by itself)
Welcome to the corporately controlled internet where marketing firms, public relations agencies and communications firms constantly try to manipulate the public discourse.
If you use filters ..... you can actually hear and read what people want to talk about.
Well, you can definitely narrow it down to what you want to read and talk about. I'm interested in doing that with politics (US), and I'm very far away from any kind of PR or marketing person. People can genuinely want to talk politics, it's not always a corporate conspiracy.
The best kind of marketing is the type you are completely unaware of.
The world runs on money .... money is made by convincing people to give it to you ... our modern world is built on convincing people ... but people don't like being convinced ... so you have to convince them without letting them know they've been convinced.
It's not a corporate conspiracy ... it's just business.
