Microsoft pulls entire Hololens 2 campaign after public backlash - "This satanic performance artist will be the perfect figurehead for our product!"

[#zzz]

I'm seriously confused about all this, also the allegations about her "witchcraft" are so over-the-top heinous and horrible it sounds more like a pizza-gate tier conspiracy than reality to me.

I don't think any of her work itself has any magical powers or anything. It's just that obscenely rich and powerful people are bored people, they want to do things that are considered taboo, so they pay a woman who says she'll make them a giant pentagram in goats blood and fashion a statue of Moloch in gold. And they go "whoa thats so out there!" "You can't just do that!"

Think of an edgy 14 year old but with billions and billions of dollars who wants to pay someone to do edgy things.

John Podesta's dear friend huh? How interesting...

And, of course, the same Marina Abramović who filmed a documentary with João de Deus, the occult psychosurgeon, human farmer, and convicted rapist who also happens to be friends with Oprah Winfrey.

I only know about Abramovic because her staring performance thing (The Artist is Present) was a big deal what looks like to be a decade ago. And then a few years later SJWs tried to cancel her for I can't even remember what, but all of a sudden you were supposed to hate her because you were told to.

So I don't know of any stuff involving satanism or QAnon or any other conspiracy stuff - I can't say I'd heard anything about her for the last half-dozen years. So, yes, it would be useful to have a better overview of why this was so poorly received, and who exactly it was downvoting her that they actually listened to, because they usually don't listen to the right-wing when they get upset about someone.

Abramović sparked controversy in August 2016 when passages from an early draft of her memoir were released, in which—based on notes from her 1979 initial encounter with Aboriginal Australians—she compared them to dinosaurs and observed that "they have big torsos (just one bad result of their encounter with Western civilisation is a high sugar diet that bloats their bodies) and sticklike legs". She responded to the controversy on Facebook, saying she had "the greatest respect for the Aborigine people, to whom [she] owed everything"

I made a thread about that shit when it came out and all the backlash it got and these gay mods deleted it just citing "shit"

If it was as shit as this is then it deserved to be deleted.

We all know that the performance art people would use this for would involve women who look much better and with much less clothing on.

Only a diminutive, highly vocal internet community knows what the Microsoft HoloLens is, so it evens out.

seriously I won't claim to be the bleeding edge of cybertech but I've never heard of this in any way at all

 

[Ebonic Tutor]

Anyone who actually believes in Pizza gate is a exceptional moron.
I'm asking about why the backlash on Hololens video was so big, I wasn't expecting the general public to actually be invested or care about that stuff that much.

You know Jeffery Epstein was one of the major players according to everybody right? Funny he died like he did.

Nothing was probably going on at Comet, other that the money changing hands is my wager.

 

[CIA Nigger]

Aside from any conspiracy theory shit, what I got from this is that pretentious "modern art" is pretentious. Instead of seeing something that blows your mind with the Hololens 2, they're marketing it with uh...letting you see some artist in a room in augmented reality and telling you that art is worth a ton? They need to take a page out of the VR playbook and show you cool games you want to play.

Could have had an anime waifu walk through or a tiger roaring onto the stage, maybe an extinct animal trotting along so younger generations could see what they were like.

I'm not telling you how to spend your money, Microsoft, but I am saying you're being stupid with it.

 

[Cedric_Eff]

GO WOKE GO BROKE.

Plus, why use HoloLens?

 

[President Joe Biden]

Maybe they should have made it a porn VR game instead, maybe then people would have bought it. There's plenty of people on this board who would line up to buy Satanic MILF Adventures 6 if you told them it would come with a anime wallscroll (aka a poster for anyone who isn't a weeb)
