I don't think it necessarily did, it's not like you'd ever be hearing about those middle managers in the first place

Middle managers have some capability to interfere with the operation of your business.

If they just have 500 words weekly there's a lot less they can gently caress up.

Also I feel like ever since Bush ii became president everyone was less embarrassed by giving their worthless progeny a high profile job so we see more of it.

Plus they're increasingly stealing wages from middle managers too now, so you can avoid resentment in your family by giving them a thinkpiece gig. Plus getting paid for thinkpieces is no different from having an allowance.

yeah, it's obvious that the only reason that the reason we haven mobilized the nation to radically change our nation to deal with climate change is because it poses a short term threat to the accumulation of capital (long term, those zeros in your bank account will be literally worthless as we are all dead)

So I looked it up and that interview is fake, it's from a 'comedy' YouTube channel (he has other videos where he pretends to be a fox news reporter) but a bunch of the more recent videos are possibly serious qanon / infowars stuff, I dunno I'm not watching them to find out.
