too bad so sad /s

Vice was kinda edgy, 5+ years ago.
They seemed to become quite corporate and polished more recently.

I suspect, like so many other left leaning media companies, they started out with a small number of highly motivated left leaning idealists, which actually brought them success, but ended up getting bloated with a huge glut of low motivation wokester types who got highered because of their political & social leanings but who end up just being parasites.

Yay. I translated a video for them from Japanese and it took them 100 days to pay me $500 out of that $6 billion.

I never got the purpose of Vice. Every once in a blue moon they had an interesting program. But for the most part it was junk or far-Left BS. I’m surprised it lasted as long as it did.
