I guess there will just be a bunch of verified accounts running around doing "organic" marketing for their latest projects now.

Boy, I am sure glad nobody has ever done that on Lemmy before.

    Weren't they already doing that? I swear, you read some posts and it's like a PR team is trying to get a story buried. Like after a Leo DiCaprios dating history got air time you started seeing him in more memes the next days, and TILs about how he was a good actor

    I mean he's quite memable and he's a great actor so not sure why both things can't happen...

    They can. It's just that it happens suspiciously often after there's a surge in his negative images

    It seems like a lot of people strip the agency from the women he has flings with. If he is not abusive or manipulative then who cares, they come out the other side with some great stories and experiences that they wouldn't have if they instead had a fling with a random classmate at college.
