    sheit, i’m not convinced this is isn’t an official effort driven by the studio to promote the movie by some viral means

    this is some genius fuckin advertising if it is, and it’s hilarious free advertising if it isn’t

      That’s exactly what this is.

      1. Make some piece of mass media.
      2. Use it to drive outrage and division.
      3. Make mass media headlines about outrage and division.
      4. Profit.

      Consume, consumer!
