continued bad experiences with media
I made a 'the real estate industry is gross' meme generator with some friends, which went low-key New Zealand viral (that's when some of the people posting about it are not known to you personally, or if engagement is skyrocketing into the high dozens)

It's parody of loweandco.nz, whose smug billboards are plastered on every block in Wellington (in a housing crisis pricing renters and buyers out of the city or into deeply shitty situations)

Anyway the first article about it is mostly just about how the target of the jokes is apparently having a good ol' chuckle. It uses exactly the same shitty pro-real estate language that the NZ media always uses and makes a shit living situation a personal failure, not a societal one.
Eg. there's no way that Mix said 'we all have friends who have not managed to get on the ladder'
Plus there's no link to the actual website 🤦️

I know that you can get better results from media with the right strategies and preparation but it's so frustrating.
