It's a result of rich investors being so out of touch with regular people that they turn to one of the young interns and ask "What is it you young people like, Twitter? Twitter is popular - it must be a good example of popular opinion. Make a movie that will please Twitter."

Then they let some 14 year old girl with blue hair write the script and of course it sucks. Then the Huffington Post writes an article about how it's all the fault of young white men.

Then repeat.

There is more money in selling carp to barking seals.

Nobody cares about what they make anymore.

Even after all this tech boom, even they have less interest in their products than they do the bottom line.

Like, the thing that really grinds my gears is that if you see a social media post, and then close the window, then re open the window to go back and comment, they HIDE the post, so that you have to click around the site and get distracted, generating them more ad rev.

It makes me sick. Like we build these products, then we make them purposefully difficult to use to make the creator more money.

But what really gets me is, that instead of not using the products, people JUST KEEP USING THEM!

Like, we've proven we dont even want quality, we want more. We dont care what it is, just give us MORE!

Makes me so nihilistic about our future.
