Kylie Jenner ads at bus stops for google glass are some sci fi dystopia shit on their own. They Live was exactly about this.
Not Google Glass.
Meta glasses, whatever. Same shit different pile.
It shows that the people creating this are totally disconnected from reality and surrounded by sycophants.
It's still boggles my mind that the foundation of the Kardashian/Jenner business empire is a (probably intentionally) leaked sex tape.
it tells you where humanity is at rn.
Yeah for sure.
Same here. Such a weird level of social "power" given to them without actual reason. At least the old capitalist families actually had functionally important capital control with oil, land, industrial production. The Kardashian/Jenner families are just famous and rich for being famous and rich. And they (and many others like them) have inspired so many people to aspire to get famous and rich via clout chasing instead of anything else. Becoming a plague of thinking they are smart about stuff just because of their follower count.
Wait fr? That's crazy
I never understood why they were popular at all
Yep

Crazy read lmao
man i know some people with schizophrenia that would lose it after seeing that
yeah I didn't think about it but it's so true
Isn't this an ad from a country that has the most cameras on the street watching people and tracking their movements m
lol yeah, although not sure if UK or the US have more cameras at this point
The UK by density for sure, but total would be America
yeah that sounds about right
Yeah the massive amounts of land that have no towns or even houses in the western half of the USA throws the density curve pretty dramatically. Makes it seem like the USA isn't the surveillance state it really is, while making other smaller (land wise) surveillance states seem worse. With the density looking less problematic, it really lets the frog that is the American populace not notice the water getting closer to boiling.
Shanghai and Beijing together do laps around the amount of cameras in the UK and US combined.
Cmon I know you guys like to be dishonest but that's just not true
It's China. By like a lot. Lmfao
not really, London's right up there https://www.caldersecurity.co.uk/countries-cities-by-number-of-cctv-cameras/
"Let’s first look at the top 10 cities with the most CCTV cameras per 1000 inhabitants:
Taiyuan, China – 119.6
Wuxi – China – 92.1
London, United Kingdom – 67.5
Changsha, China – 56.8
Beijing, China – 56.2
Hangzhou, China – 52.3
Kunming, China – 45.0
Qingdao, China – 44.5
Xiamen, China – 40.3
Harbin, China – 39.1
Now, let’s look at the top 10 cities by CCTV density per square km:
Chennai, India – 657
Hyderabad, India – 480
Harbin, China – 411
London, United Kingdom – 399
Xiamen, China – 385
Chengdu, China – 350
Taiyuan, China – 319
Delhi, India – 289
Kunming, China – 281
Beijing, China – 278"
Sorry what are we talking about? Aren't you the guy who like two comments below this agrees it's probably the UK by a per citizen margin?
London is literally third on the list bud. And of course, we have to consider the lack of transparency of the US regime here as well.
Who is first, second, fourth, fifth and sixth?
Also what's the overall population of China vs the overall population of the UK?
C'mon man there's no argument here. Just stop.
When you definitely understand how per capita works. 🤣
So what you're saying is huge amount of surveillance is a-okay, as long as some other country has more. Gotcha.
Your reading comprehension is 0.
Everyone in this thread is lying
Uhhhh pretty sure China holds that title by a long shot my dude
In absolute numbers probably but due to size and population China tops most lists of absolute numbers so it's not really an informative metric. In terms of per capita I'm 90% sure the US leads China in CCTV cameras.
No China just laps entirely. To have such a large population and also dominate the statistic of cameras per 1000 citizens mean they have millions of more cameras.
Have proof for that because I have articles that state the US is ahead per capita and you seem to just be saying things?
However, if you count the number of cameras per capita, the USA leads the race with the highest number of CCTV cameras per person.

Didn't even read your own link. Doesn't even mention the US, this is about the UK.
I'm done with you liars absolutely humiliating and embarrassing for you. Lmfao
I literally quoted the link? Did you read it or just skip to the city comparison? Illiterate much? "absolutely humiliating and embarrassing for you. Lmfao"
People are going to react to this with a knee-jerk "nuh uh!" because you're being a smug reddituer about it, but I'm going to take a different approach. China actually invests in its infrastructure so obviously it's going to have more and newer cameras, simply because it's actually building and expanding. In China you might be surveilled in one of the more than 1000 high speed rail stations. In the UK it might be in one of four, or more likely a low speed train station. In the US it might be a bus station.
That's the difference. When countries are growing and building, they're installing cameras. Every country is going to install more and more cameras forever, the only countries that won't are the ones that are in decline. China is growing and building faster than anyone, so they're going to have more cameras. This needs to be taken into account.
No they're lying. There's a difference.
I tried.
Go back to Reddit.
Go play with your little lying friends lol
ABAB
Busses? Bitches?
… oh probably billionaires
All busses are bitches.
🅱️ops?
/c/subvertising
Anyone remember 'culture jamming'?

We jammin' in the name of pee-tree
😂😂😂😂😂
I, thought, the monsters in They Live were aliens, but I think they’re a metaphor for the parasitic wealth class.
Full Movie if you want to join the discussion.
Definitely a metaphor.
I don't really know how popular that movie is with people who aren't into subvertising... I don't think it's very popular, I don't know if people will get the reference.
The message is clear without knowing the reference though
