The art feels like they are forcing a pacifier in our mouth as we read

The purple lady smiling soullessly as she changes your account settings, without your consent, with her freakishly large hands, makes it feel like YouTube is trying to make this feel as invasive and violating as possible.

Ah, the Alegria artstyle, the only artstyle that’s equally as inhumane and soulless as AI

“WE’ve changed YOUR settings” is really disturbing if you think about it. It sounds like something that can be straight up used in some dystopia to create a tense moment

Thankfully, since your viewer demographic is women over 60, every time I view your content the algorithm raises my age estimate. Appreciate your service Man.

The bigger offence is making us remember this art style continues to exist for whatever reason.

Looking on the bright side, Youtube ruining their service this much means I can finally get past my Youtube addiction!

Easiest way to beat this is to have a YouTube account old enough to fight in a war

Alegria (Corporate Memphis), the artstyle used in the image, echoes Abaporu by Tarsila do Amaral. Same tiny heads, huge limbs, big hands. In Abaporu, these signified lack of intellect, loss of free will, and a body reduced to labour. It was a critique of exploitation. Alegria hides that meaning behind cheerful colors, using the same anatomy to sell corporate harmony, while quietly suggesting that the internet users lack free will just as much as Tarsila’s drawn figure. Any company that uses that art style, in my opinion, is basically saying "I OWN YOU, AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT." It's disgusting.

AI was supposed to do my dishes and chores while i do art and writing. Now AI does my art and writing while i do my dishes and chores AND also asks for my government issued ID, personal information, and my most secure information we were told as kids to never share over the internet. Clippy im sorry that this is your legacy old friend

I can't believe this is happening just as I'm developing an interest in Gravity Falls

Corporate Memphis feels like an elaborate psyop designed to irritate everyone regardless of race, gender, political affiliation, or favorite Man Carrying Thing skit.
