and the opposite is also common: one headline - its basically poison. Thats not honest either.

Ok, transparency log + no affiliate rush would actually help.

When people avoid risk talk, it feels like PR. That’s why skeptics don’t trust the culture angle sometimes.

This is where marketing gets shady. Same name, different reality, and people assume it’s identical.

They’re writing it for impulse buyers. “Banned” makes it feel like you’re getting away with something.

Not inevitable. Standards + transparency can protect communities. It’s work, but possible.

So like… I wasn’t crazy for thinking it’s meaningless?

Ok but where are these standards publicly? I just see brands posting pretty mountains.

Yeah i agree with @rae and avoiding the topic makes it feel like censorship.

So the narrative shift is basically: stop selling it like a dare?

Ok ok ok, but real question: if it’s cultural then why is the main content online just people acting messed up?
