Who is the audience supposed to be? What's the actual intent of the article?

It's weird because it's like the article in question is actually trying to argue against boycotting Google by making it seem completely catastrophic, and then throws in weird lines like telling you to buy an iPhone which is obviously ridiculous and only reinforces a sense of futility.

The "advice" offered by manfluencers couldn't be better-designed to keep young men sexless and lonely. I'd argue that is the goal. Happy men don't hand over their paychecks to "pick-up artists." They need to keep them lonely, to keep selling them the fake "solutions."

I do struggle when designing games like this because, like, does it normalise & encourage resistance to oppression? Does it provide catharsis that is needed for the survival of the oppressed? Or does roleplaying resistance in fiction act as an opiate of the masses, dissipating energy into inaction?
