Google will roll up their sleeves and get the IOT guillotine ready, happily running all their american leftie-progressive marketing back home while they do so. Why not? Apple did it!

As propaganda ages and stops being an effective meme-weapon, the propaganda fades and the art shined through. Old, obsolete ads for dead products that you look up out of curiosity are mostly harmless.
Still doesn't mean I'm not installing and updating my adblocker!

The acid's definitely right- 'formic' comes from fourmis, the french word for ant!

But they failed at making money. The box office revenue went down. Just because you can't easily quantify 'good cinema' doesn't mean it doesn't exist, and is correlated with monetary success.

It's not what she can feasibly do, there are no points for effort- even when the effort is admirable. It's how the risk/reward dynamics end up looking.

Making friends with a woman at work is like making friends with your boss. How can you ever be friends with someone who always has a finger on the 'destroy your livelihood' button?
The power dynamics all fucked up. I'll risk ruin and death for greatness or adventure, not to hopefully benefit the very person who would be my ruin.

A man doing that won't get you fired and tarred. The downside risk is too great.

Those things would be ok (there are unrelated reasons to be against free university for everyone, maybe, but whatever) but what you're talking about isn't what 'social justice advocates' want. In fact, many of them are against blind auditions, as they don't end up sometimes don't end up hiring people in the 'right' proportions, instead saying people should discriminate based on race (in the 'right' direction, of course.)
