Marilyn Manson is an icon in the goth, rock, metal world of music. Due to his appearance and songs, he’s been unjustifiably demonized in the past; however, recently, that demonization seems justified. Is Manson really a monster as his namesake would suggest? Or is he the victim of a witch hunt?

Welcome to the Corporate Casket, a weekly series where bad businesses go to die. In the summer of 2022, the viral Tik Tok food craze known as “Pink Sauce” turned everyone’s heads before it eventually, allegedly, turned everyone’s stomachs. Soon after the sauce’s prototype rolled out, it was mired by controversy involving shoddy packaging and shipping, exploded bottles, and allegations that it made people sick (and possibly even killed someone). Was all of this just a Intent scam turned deadly, or was something else going on here?

It seemed every actress you had ever heard of had faced the horrifying treatment of this monster of a man. Now, years after the first accusations, Harvey is still in the midst of legal battles, and the saga and terrifying truth of his time in Hollywood never seems to end.

With people starting to question the validity of his preaching, there are other things going on that are raising a few eyebrows.

With studies popping up showing the massive impact on the environment from companies and billionaires alike, it seems the burden should be primarily placed on them. But, it’s not.

Welcome to Multi Level Mondays, a weekly series all about multi level marketing, pyramid schemes, and ponzi schemes. The fertility industry can be a wonderful thing, allowing people that are unable to have children the chance of building a family. However, how we talk about freezing eggs and IVF can be concerning and far from empowering. More than ever, it’s been seen as a way to ‘level the business playing field’, or promoted as a way to ‘stop time’ when these procedures are far from a guarantee. So who’s regulating the fertility industry—if anyone?

DNA tests are a fun way to find out your genetic history, but they create far more problems than dragging family secrets and skeletons out of the closet. The lack of privacy, security, and questionable people being permitted to buy your most personal information all make DNA testing a shady industry.

Older generations have been complaining about younger generations since the dawn of civilization. For thousands of years, younger generations have been accused of being lazy, arrogant, disrespectful, and foolish. Sometimes older generations see these qualities in the youth of their day and thereby blame younger generations for the societal decline. But in the case of “millennials,” they’ve been accused of “killing” nearly every socio-economic thing. Why have older generations and the media chosen to paint millennials in such a murderous light?

The tradition of the “red buckets” has been one that has been continued throughout decades, but most people don’t have a second thought when they throw some spare change into the smiling volunteer. But, what is the organization you’re donating to? The history of lgbtq+ discrimination, child abuse, and employment mistreatment runs deep. Maybe those red buckets are as jolly as they seem.

Brittany Dawn’s name has almost certainly been marked forever as something that will register the word “scam” in many people’s minds. Her fitness scam has become so big it made national headlines and caused an entire state to sue her. But, Brittany isn’t the only one.

Boohoo has become a competitive and notorious rival to Shein in the world of fast fashion and in scandals. They claim to be making a push for sustainability, but their 100% sale, and over 400,000 styles a year seem to beg a differ.

Since at least the 1940’s there has been a movement in the United States to get food from sources that don’t rely on artificial means of growth. From pesticides to genetic modification, there has been a following of said movement for nearly 100 years. It doesn’t come as much of a surprise to us that, just like most foods, milk has also become the star of its own show of misinformation.

Dolce and Gabanna is one of the biggest fashion houses in the world. With dresses that cost more than a lot of people’s rent for an entire year, they claim their clothes, bags, and accessories are more than just fashion; their art. But, the company, and subsequently the owners of the brand seem to be skilled at more than just designing clothes. They’re pretty good at stirring up some controversy and creating massive scandals. They don’t seem to care though, as it seems they are pretty much uncancelable. Still, can’t blame a pyramid for trying. Don’t feed the monsters.

Some estimates claim that less than 2% of the money donated to their organizations went to cancer patients, and the patriarch of the family has had his children create cancer non-profit spin-offs—each just as bad as the last.

But in recent years, Slenderman has been blamed for several violent incidents, including multiple attempted murders. The most famous of these murder attempts occured in Wakausha, Wisconson, when two 12-year-old girls stabbed their best friend 19 times and left her for dead. What caused this horrifying attack? Is there something insidious about Slenderman that inspires murder? Does dark or graphic media cause violence? Is anyone to blame for all of this?
