Verizon Presents: Look Behind You. A Film by Nia DaCosta featuring Connor Storrie.

New fear unlocked. Literally.

@michaelmiraflor I mean, yes and there are a lot of people on pretty much every platform doing that too.

@jsidman “…sizeable Republican clientele” is a stretch and not grounded in any data. It isn’t a totally surprising choice for so many other reasons other than some made up statement.

@iangertler Ian was a gem of a human. Sending all the love and light.

[Michael J. Barber @michaeljbarber]

@jigolden It’s superb. All the Sinners Bleed is a so good, too.

@strebel As with most things, that depends on what you view as wrong. Euro (and most other countries outside NA) machines are better for the environment and your clothes though so it’s a trade off.

@kdoohan The employees aren’t arguing, it’s their bosses. As long as it doesn’t violate rules and laws, gov employees are really good at just doing what they’re told to do.

The faster we get away from this argument about it being these employees fault versus poor leadership the better.

[Michael J. Barber @michaeljbarber]

@michaelmiraflor So so sorry, Michael. Sending love and light your way ♥️

@ErikHuberman The spot ran on 3 local LA stations. There is plenty of outrage there. Most poeple outside LA and the internet bubble people haven’t heard about the tshirt. Not defending either. Both are reprehensible Nazi garbage behavior, but apples and oranges.

@ErikHuberman @elonmusk Feels like you’re cherry picking what happened here to serve some narrative. Accidentally? lol. And, he didn’t sell only a swastika shirt. The ad was approved when there wasn’t a swastika tshirt—he changed the site within an hour of the ad running. Plus, different reach…

@strebel Warbys never really held up for me. Mykita’s are my jam these days. Pricey but incredible design and construction. Two of my pairs are 5+ and 7+ years old and still kicking https://t.co/wRe6Fd1xiO.

@aishamadeit I feel this to my core

[Michael J. Barber @michaeljbarber]

@aishamadeit And the headline has already changed 👀

[Michael J. Barber @michaeljbarber]

This is the take.

Modern brands are hitmakers. They are in the business of producing as many cultural hits as possible, and these new formats are increasingly replacing the traditional brand marketing strategies. 1/4
