If you think "Someone supremely high on the smell of their own farts made this," then you are part of the problem with the world today and the reason why they're able to get away with mass surveillance. This message is incredibly important, and you're writing it off as pretentious. Fucking bootlickers.

The advert is awful because regular people won't get it and yes, it seems pretentious as fuck. I said nothing about the broader message so keep your hallucinations to yourself.

As for your ad hominem attack, you don't know me. Do better.
