was ruminating on twitter about how floaty Jim Hawkins’ features are—he’s all angles in profile, and then a sweet brooding anime boy from the front?? They don’t entirely reconcile, SO I took a quick pass at a more consistent Jim turnaround, with a few more anchor points and angles.
now I need to go do a ~*Soft Tortured Space Boyfriend*~ turnaround based on how he looks from the front, thank you for coming to my Ted Talk The Many Faces of Jim Hawkins
Random corporation: We’re proud to announce that our happy little family is choosing to adopt greener policies, and we’re going to donate leftover products to shelters!
Neoliberal: See? Capitalism can absolutely reconcile individual self-interest of capitalists and the broader human needs of communities! This voluntary choice by this corporation demonstrates that.
Leftist: Actually, little concessions like this will not ultimately quell climate change or eradicate poverty. More often than not, they just do surface furnishings for the sake of social capital. Most companies will never seriously care about a given issue if there’s even a moderate impact on their bottom line, and real solutions to climate change, global poverty, widespread automation, social calamities, etc. will require sweeping systemic change. If given the choice between qualitative change for the betterment of humanity and profits as per usual, capitalists will choose the latter 99% of the time – a system built on competition and capital accumulation essentially compels them to do so.
Neoliberal: WELL. What do you want them to do??! They have to stay in business somehow!! What’s wrong with wanting to make a profit sweety =)
