Celebrity boosting film festivals are overvalued

Gouna Film Festival, Oscar or any celebrity boosting festival are highly overvalued and overstated. What do they actually do? Acting. What is acting? Pretending a character in an imaginary story.

Nobel prize is undervalued, buried in mass media and not enough.

Pill #2: Universal Basic Income The second reason is the universal basic income that was discussed by Dan Larimer before in his articles, but not elaborated during the event. Although voice.com tokens are incentives for quality content sharing and earning from it, but marketing it as a total replacement for ordinary jobs is a bit of a stretch and it wouldn’t have been wise to do so. Which I think some people expected thinking *universal* basic income. Pill #3: The News Leak If Dan or Brendan leaked the social media platform before the event.
