They're also free advertisement for a franchise owned by a multibillion dollar corporation. It's almost like being a useful idiot for a megacorp.

- archerx 3y agoYea, if they were original piece of art it would be cool but I would hate to be forced to stare at soulless corporate crap trying to masquerade as "art". I too would want them removed if I was forced to look at that garbage everyday.
- hytdstd 3y agoWhat? Clearly this man receives a great deal of value(>$50k) in having these statues in front of his home. Just because in theory, he's creating value for the franchise that he isn't capturing, doesn't mean he's being exploited. He's no more an idiot than a Disney fan wearing a Mickey Mouse hat or shirt.
- karmakurtisaani 3y agoYes, he's paying more than 50k to advertise a franchise. Sounds a bit idiot-ish to me. But hey, it's his money so it's not like I'll argue too much about it. Regarding the t-shirt, at least you get actual use out of wearing branded clothes, even though to me the same logic applies to an extent.
