Edit to say because I kinda feel bad now: I have nothing against English teachers! Please don’t send your mafia of learned lit nerds after me! …Or do, lit nerds are hot.

    yeah but we all, unfortunately, need jobs, and jobs are at companies, and companies make money from sales, sales happen on a market, and you need marketing so people know it exists.

    I’d happily abolish the whole stack for a free house, garden, entertainment and groceries for life.

      Marketing these days goes far beyond putting out awareness of existence (that step I’m aware of and support - it’s great when a YouTube ad shows something interesting I actually need). These days it’s all psychological reinforcement of an invented need.

      Just working utilities. Send text files as marketing copy. If everyone did that it’d be fine.

        that is precisely what SERP and sales prospecting marketing is. Except paid SERP placement and plaintext email displayed in a browser or email client rather than a text editor.
