what... how is this a dystopic thing. put aside the fact that knowing brands helps me make decisions all the time and knowing plants wouldn't help me at all since I'm not a forager... you could get rid of all corporations today and make us live in a perfect, moneyless, classless utopia and 20 years later I could still name maybe 4 different flowers because I don't give a shit what they're called.
Also brand marketing is built to sear their brand into your brain vs. plants who just vibe.
I didn't touch that because that's part of the complaint. I'm saying even accepting that as something to complain about, surely you could have much better things to compare than fucking plant names.
