I’m not asking about ads in general, but it might be part of the same behavior. I mean the trend of showing media/art like Finding Nemo and people immediately going over-your-head with the message and buying endangered fish.

Is this commodity fetishization, and if so, what are things an artist or creator can do to curb that? Is this something that is considered the responsibility of the creator?

Can anybody suggest readings or authors that shed light on this problem or possible solutions?

    I think I took the specific term “screaming hollow core” from… something? A podcast maybe? (TrueAnon? Deprogram? Chapo?) And “dissolved into air” was a reference to “all that is solid melts into air” from the Manifesto. This was mostly just original writing, though!
