Get the TechTuber mug.The most misunderstood theory on this planet. Period.
This theory was only meant to be used and understood in an academic context, but I guess some people decided it would be "cool" to use in mainstream discourse (i.e. social media). Thus, the misunderstanding begins.
In all seriousness, for someone to understand this theory, you would need to understand what "critical theory" is first. I am specifically referring to the philosophical theory that Adorno & Horkheimer invented, which is basically a heated critique on mass-produced culture.
If one does not understand the tenets to this theory, then one should not voice their uninformed opinions on said theory.
Of course, perhaps the fault lies more in the people who decided to abuse this term. And in that case, I understand you 100%, but at the same time it's still unfair to dismiss it as BS.

Get the Critical Race Theory mug.by Mary Mary Quite The Contrarian August 3, 2021
Get the kkkkkk mug.Canada's own version of a dictatorship. The CRTC dictates what every Canadian can or cannot do/watch on the internet. In recent years, I've heard they are even making efforts to filter out content that isn't "Canadian" enough. Basically, the CRTC is the oppressor and the average Canadian citizen is the oppressed.
Friend 1: Hey have you watched the newest season of Insert American TV show here?
Friend 2: No I can't because of the goddamn CRTC!
Friend 2: No I can't because of the goddamn CRTC!

Get the CRTC mug.If the iPhone 5S (2013) and the iPhone 11 (2019) had a baby, their baby would be the iPhone 12. There is nothing amazing nor abominable to say about the 12. The usual caveats are present (e.g. higher price), but the sharp and squared-off sides is quite a nice refreshing design choice in my opinion.
Oh, and this is the first iPhone to feature magsafe charging which, more importantly, means that your iPhone is magnetic and you can stick it onto any magnetic surface. Why? Because magnets, man!
