I had to deal with some guy at work trying to do some tiktok video and including me in it so I could complement his side gig or some shit (and likely only including me because women get views). And if I complain too much about being included in their grift everyone will shit on me for being a karen or for not helping him with it. Jesus fucking christ, I hate people that try to constantly plaster their face and name on everything to make money. Fuck youtubers, fuck tiktok, fuck ads, stop stealing peoples work for a quick buck ‘by doing commentary’, leave me the fuck alone
No worries, happy to help :) Yes it’s a common misconception like I said. Hopefully if you reread the commodity fetishism section of Capital with that in mind (it’s just one subheading under the first chapter, though of course it’s relevant to the whole book) you’ll see some of the points I took from that section in what Marx says.
