28:30 of unstructured thoughts about the... troublesome feelings I get from my experience as a content creator, when I see a corporation creating a fake person to foster parasocial influencer relationships with an audience of teenagers
Tangentially related to my Seraphine video - I am uncomfortable with her because she is not a real person and doesn't have to navigate ANY of this.
Which, by the way, if I am doing promotional sponsorship work for a brand, by law I have to disclose that shit pretty extensively. When Seraphine runs a K/DA roleplay to drive merch sales, she doesn't have to say shit, because she's not a real person.
Clever lil' loophole.
Clever lil' loophole.
Woke up to a lot of people very emphatically declaring that THEY definitely NEVER get taken in by advertising and only stupid people could possibly be influenced by such a thing
