Am I supposed to be mad at these small time con-men capitalists? This is what the modern global economy is all about. Attempting to fuck over the people who aren't you, attempting to receive the maximum while providing the absolute minimum you can get away with without consequences. Their mistake was only slightly miscalculating that minimum where people would feel cheated but otherwise leave minus their money grumbling, but not enough to make it a weird news of the day story.

When's the last time your fast food sandwich looked remotely like the one on all the signs?They look like that sandwich in the ad was a tire that got deflated, deforming under its own weight, at best. Those scammers just had swaths of lawyers and lobbyists to make their false advertising your problem, until now it's just how it is.

Why are you harassing these glorious, aspiring job creators acting in rational self-interest?

Our society is long overdue giving con men the ass kicking they deserve.

Can we start with the con-men hurting/exploiting millions and threatening billions with their "externalities," capitalist Orwellian shorthand for "I already have your money, so my mess is your problem, you stupid fucking suckers🖕🤑🖕?"

Because these bottom feeders are just a symptom of the above's global sociocultural damage. They ruined some kids afternoon (but when those grown kids are dying from capitalist made climate change induced Cat 6 superstorms, or hungry from the associated crop failures, 🤷). It might be cathartic to kick their ass, but it's odd and inconsistent to the extreme considering how comfortable we are with our most prolific con-men being allowed to own, and keep!.. everything, every exploited, scammed dollar, instead of getting their ass kicked as you say.

I agree. We need a new saying that parallels "One death is a tragedy, one million deaths are a statistic."

Back to the days of running the snake oil salesmen out of town tarred and feathered?

We went to Japan last year and they have a fast food chain called MOS burger. The food looked exactly like the menu pictures... It was amazing! Plump and delicious.

I feel like there's much better food for the same price around

What? They didn't slightly miscalculate the minimum, they grossly blasted past it. Yes, your point is that false advertising is a spectrum, and a certain amount is generally expected, but this isn't in some mushy grey area of it, it's egregiously over the line. Yeah food doesn't look like it does on the packages, but if this event were food it would be a grey goop. Frankly I find your attempt at ignoring magnitude lazy, sloppy, and cynical.

Lol magnitude? Really? These microcapitalists ruined these kids afternoon with their scam, while the ones these scammers emulate poison them with microplastics and Threaten their ONLY habitat, to the scam shareholder's applause and most of society considering them aspirational figures, buying the scam of "sometimes companies make a mess, it isn't their problem or responsibility, and we call this competely valid economic event an externality herp derp 🤡."

Also Most corporate run INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY EXPERIENCE exhibitions are only one step up from this in terms of marketing vs reality. They calculated the formula of acceptable customer mark dissatisfaction from intentionally dishonest marketing hype correctly.

So please, do continue telling me more about the magnitude of these microcapitalist's microscam.

sits in Wonka meme pose.

Come on, they've given those kids and their parents an experience they'll remember for years to come! They'll be able to talk about it at every social gathering! It's priceless!

Dude, put this stuff in your comment then. All you mentioned in your comment was that food doesn't look the way they do in advertisements. I can't read your mind, I can only read what's in your comment.
