Black Friday Discussion Thread – Bears at Eagles

So, it’s pretty obvious that the Black Friday game on Amazon is a cynical ploy by the monopolistic retailer to keep people at home so they don’t go shopping elsewhere, right?

The weird thing about that is, despite this, the ads for said cynical ploy to keep people home shopping on Amazon is littered with commercials for traditional brick and mortar retailers like JC Penney (which I just saw).

Is this just ironic or a multi-level psyop by Amazon? Or should we reject the tyranny of “or” and assume both?

Whatever, it’s a football game.

For those of you working today at a traditional brick and mortar retailer, on this the most miserable work day of the year, I salute you; and I hope you get to enjoy your day whenever you are able to escape retail hell.

Bears/Eagles on now, on Amazon.

Enjoy the game y’all.

Consume. CONSUME. COOOOOOOOOOOONSUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUME.
