JUICE: this IS capitalism you donk

JUICE: this is what its supposed to be, this is how it ends. if it isn't there its only because it isnt there yet. ...

JUICE: ... it's a beast of the wild, as wild as any grizzly bear with fawn's blood in its mouth. i think you see deeds and contracts and bureaucratic bloat and see that something went wrong. something was ALWAYS wrong y'all.

JUICE: i love it. i love to watch it. in a zoo, where it can't hurt me.

@cabel I tried the Temu app once, years ago, before I knew what it was. I opened the app, saw ads like this (maybe slightly less extreme a few years ago), and immediately thought "this must be a scam" and un-installed it.
