Plagued Consoomers / Consoomer Culture - Because if it has a recogniseable brand on it, I’d buy it!

Oh I've seen these kinds of creepy propaganda kids books before.

"Mommy, mommy I want you to read me a bedtime story of Kamala Harris, the coronavirus, and Elisabeth Warren."
i was particularly interested in reading the kamalamarama ding dong one, but couldn't find an archive online
i suppose too few people actually buy this stuff for it to be dumped somewhere
if someone has em, for any of these books, please post them ITT


on a tangentially related note, when did "I AM SPEAKING" become this 'powerful' commonly used statement that people adopted, all it does is evoke the image of someone disruptive and self important shouting over others, usually with nothing of worth to say

Most of these books end up in the trash or outlet stores like Ollie's where products no one wants goes to die. I see these kinds of books there all the time. Super liberal books don't actually sell, I believe the Elliot Page (Ellen? It's been so long) trans book only sold 65,000ish copies and they gave her a 3 million advance. I'm sure the kids books sell a tiny bit more just for virtue signalling by social media moms and emotionally immature adults who don't want to read a real biography/want it as a background prop, but they honestly bomb pretty hard.

Also the most I've seen in public schools (I have experience with them in urban and rural communities) is stuff for black history month. A lot of schools don't even have the books themselves, they just play a youtube video of someone else reading it because it isn't worth using school funds to get them physically.

I bet he thought the was the king that day.
 
the Elliot Page trans book
man i didn't even know that existed
they'll make a children's book about fucking anything nowadays, Elliot didn't even do anything. at least Ellen was an actress, a bit of a shit one at that... Elliot is just a fuckboy, if I wanted to see that when I was 10 I'd walk into the 8th grade and look for anyone wearing a cap backwards

why can't these people just figure out what kids want? this is the same issue with all children's media now, toys, cartoons, movies... they just don't GET kids

"Mommy, mommy I want you to read me a bedtime story of Kamala Harris, the coronavirus, and Elisabeth Warren."
This started in earnest with Obama in 2008. There were also kids that sang songs about him too, they were all the rage. Now it’s just part and parcel for non-white, non-male candidates.
We could probably make a thread on these stupid so-called children's books.... There are lots of conservative grifters who put out the same thing. What kind of weirdo is going to want to read a Steven Crowder children's book let alone a Anthony fauci book.

That’s exactly what they want to evoke and while it is disruptive and self important, they consider that a good thing because <insert progressive blather here>.

Have we discussed the insanity that is the Stanley Cup?
- $50 something water bottle reselling for $200+ in some cases
- People having a collection of dozens of these things like Funko Pops
There are fights are people waiting in from of a Target going after these stupid metal cups like animals to fresh meat.

Why is this you ask? Well they recently made a pink cup with Starbucks thats just.... pink. No other special technology, just the fact that its a different color and has Starbucks printed on the side. Enough to make people CONSOOM.

All I know about Stanley cups is that they're actually really, really good at keeping your drinks cold. So they're not useless hunks of plastic. It's still insane to own more than one.
You gotta work hard for a Stanley Cup my man. You think Gretzky got handed four of them for free or something?

He looks 45 but still dresses like he did at 16.

He's like a human living fossil.
I bet they don't mention the part when he left a bunch of people, mostly gays, to die from AIDS.
TOTAL SWIFTIE DEATH
Where's the part when she fakes her way into college and politics by pretending to be indian only for a DNA test to show she's whiter than an SS officer?

I blame the "water girls" (koolaid with more steps) for this one. They seemed to start collecting them first to show off their water girl clout and its spread.

When I visited my ten year old niece for her birthday she proudly showed me a water bottle her parents had got her. It didn't look all that interesting, just a dull green water bottle. I couldn't quite see why she was so excited, it wasn't a pretty colour and didn't have cute designs. She then proceeded to tell me how this bottle was all over TikTok and that her friends were going to be so jealous that she had one. I mentioned that she was ten, right?

A few videos that I happened upon the last few days which made me check this thread.

Woman waiting outside Target at 4am:

Some cup accessories:

Water station:

It might be the edibles, but I literally thought they were talking about some sort of Stanley Cup replica. So this is just a regular cup like a Yeti? What's the big deal? These videos of people fighting over them have to be set up by Target and/or the company.
 
Why the syrups...she is fatter than me already.
Just find the water brand that tastes good, ffs.
tbf most of the appeal of those syrups is the fact that they're sugar free, which is why they feel so confident calling it water
but i'd argue consuming that much aspartame isn't much better, if not worse...

the thing is, it's mostly aesthetic. they're not this passionate about tasty drinks, they just love the appearances, the prettyness of the water, because as i'm sure i've said before- bug people cannot exist when unobserved. it's a desire to make their whole life a show for others, they can't drink water if it's not pretty

Some cup accessories:
she's trying to market holders, platers, straw covers and cozies.... for a cup that by design already has holders, is meant to be portable, closes and is insulated
the thing is already a complete package and they still manage to find ways to consume accessories for it
 
These videos of people fighting over them have to be set up by Target and/or the company.
Never underestimate the power of basic bitches power of conformity. It's all a status symbol for them. Is it good cup? Sure, but for them it's an identity.

Also it's not the edibles. Every guy I know has confused these stupid cups for the hockey trophy. I don't even like sports, and it's the first thing that jumped into my head.
