@Chozo The end of the video:

But Dbrand did offer

... is basically advertisement for the brand, packed into "a joke". Why would they mention it otherwise?

And the video itself is monetized.

I did, and disagree with you completely. You don't have to be so pesimistic about life and look for the worst things in it. They wanted to lighten a mood a bit, maybe it didn't land well for you but It don't see any ill intentions behind it.

Btw, how would dbrand know they're making this video? I doubt LMG reached out to them and told them, wouldn't make any sense.
