One thing I have learned in this life: the more you cater to the lowest common denominator in society, the more everyone plays by their rules. I understand the &quot;Buzzfeed&quot; concept of using populist, knuckle-dragging content to sell ads in order to fund content for people who prefer to use their brains, but I think it&#x27;s an epic example of the snake eating its own tail, and a wildly pessimistic, fatalistic vision of the future.
