@pvandyke from this essay "the culture industry", pretty dark POV.

[Mike Allison @BBQVR]

@pvandyke the POV: culture as a commodity under capitalism robs humans of agency--they don't seem to care because they are so entertained

[Mike Allison @BBQVR]

@pvandyke PS so the advocate of the devil RN 👹

[Mike Allison @BBQVR]

@pvandyke sure it can communicate conflict--subconsciously at the aggrandizement of the capitalistic entity that granted that communication
