    This feels very “How do you do fellow kids”. As if ol’ Timmy Apple wouldn’t sever the fuck out of his employees if he could. Children in factories can’t complain about poor conditions if they don’t remember them.

    It’s another example of rich people not getting the point of these thrillers. Mr Beast sees Squid Game, the blatant anti-capitalist message flies over his head, and he uses his wealth to recreate the show, injuring and abusing poor people for entertainment.

    Timmy sees Severance is popular, and makes a little video where the emotionally abusive torturer/manager welcomes him to the team. Tim has a milquetoast smile on his face the entire time, as if the show isn’t also about the horrors of capitalism. Send him to the Break Room and let him do his little “pissed in his own pants and enjoying the warmth” smile.
