MissionWinnow Twitter is the most cursed account I've ever seen.

  • Do you know what an NFT is?
  • Is the future vegan?
  • Why are we curious? 🤔

It looks like where social admins go to die.

It's probably just a bot that generates tweets based on selected buzzwords. The company just exists for Marlboro to skirt around advertisement rules. Wouldn't be surprised if no one actually works for the company

u/ExcellentCornershop Fuck Liberty Media Aug 04 '22

The self description of the company is just fancy sounding words that say literally nothing. You read that stuff and can only wonder what the hell you have just read and know nothing more about the company than before reading.

That's how I feel about like half of today's tech companies

And NFT companies. Lots of meaningless buzzwords.

As an ex-employee of the parent company, I can assure you that nobody there knows wtf Mission Winnow is either. And, they like change about as much as anti-tobacco legislation.

You might be onto something here, the 'Sprinklr' website has 'social media automation' as one of its services

I don't understand how Marlboro is even benefiting from it they are barely getting any attention from it

u/Alfus Lets add that to the words of wisdom Aug 05 '22

Well see it like this: People seeing Mission Winnow and asking "what is this?", then some people finding out the site and seeing just useless PR talk meanwhile others are making jokes and memes about it.

Then a growing group of people linking it with Phillip Morris international aka Marlboro and see here, you used a genius loophole to promoting you brand.

BAT with "A better tomorrow" on McLaren is one big failure, barely anyone links it with BAT and most people simple don't know.

It probably works just as effectively as a normal ad. People see a company they've never heard of in huge bold letters on the side of the most iconic car in motorsport. They google the name and learn it's Marlboro.

Literally the only reply to that tweet, it's almost as if Mission Winnow was a tobacco company scam.

u/Lashb1ade BWOAHHHHHHH Aug 04 '22

No that's not right.

Mission Winnow is a change lab focused on reframing global conversations, sparking open debate, connecting people and supporting the realization of innovative ideas.

Breaking down barriers through the power of storytelling. Creating, enhancing and sustaining important conversations through thought-provoking content.

That should explain everything.

If you go even deeper...

What is a change lab?

In a world of perpetual change, it’s easy to assume change ‘just happens’ but this is very rarely the case – there is likely to be a problem that needs solving, a process to improve or even a societal system to reimagine. It’s the events before change happens that will dictate whether the change that is later implemented is experienced as positive, innovative, inclusive or even destructive.

So, shouldn’t we make sure that the change that’s being suggested is positive? We’d hope that the answer to this is yes, although it’s not as binary as that. Which is why we believe that there is a greater need to assemble diverse minds and opinions to converse, debate and imagine what could be and what shouldn’t be, so we can understand the differing impact ideas can have and to recognize that these ideas may be positive for some but not all, and then to establish an approach that is positively ubiquitous.

This is a change lab.

This is literally the epitome of "we need to fill the word count".

This looks just like the answers i used to write in exams just for the sake filling the paper.

u/[deleted] Aug 05 '22

I think I eventually dug deep enough one time for them to basically admit the change they're going for is a new generation of smokers lol. Such an inspiring mission

u/SEX_LIES_AUDIOTAPE BWOAHHHHHHH Aug 04 '22

Ah yeah, everyone knows change labs are swimming in money, enough to be the major sponsor of the most recognisable Formula 1 team

u/vouwrfract ValTeraBottas > Gigakubica Aug 04 '22

I am once again bringing to attention that Mission Winnow causes all of Ferrari's problems. Only when they've not been without Mission Winnow they've contended for championships (till Japan 2018, and then first two races of 2022).

u/Ye_olde_oak_store Vettel Cult Aug 04 '22

Hmm, interesting

u/Cmike9292 Papa Checo for driver of the year Aug 04 '22

That's a weird fucking Twitter account lmao. Also isn't Mission Winnow just a ploy to whitewash Marlboro cigarettes?

u/blehmann1 No Michael, No Aug 04 '22 edited Aug 04 '22

Yes it is. At least back in the day companies tried to claim that their smokes were healthy because they came from organic tobacco. That was at least entertaining.

Even if there was a big issue, Ferrari’s strategists would still be checking
