• Social Media Engagement Strategies: Learn how to strategically deploy your compositions across various social media platforms.

Course Progression & Risk Assessment:

This course aims to push creative boundaries. We'll engage in online trolling activities, with the goal of achieving a ban from at least one social platform. The number of chapters required to reach this outcome is unpredictable, and we'll strive to operate within the legal framework of Sweden (where Personal Jesus AB operates) and avoid violating any rules or laws.

Important Considerations:

• Mature Content: The online trolling section contains adult language and crude jokes. This course is not recommended for individuals who are sensitive to such content.
• Photoshop Content: In the initial Photoshop portion of the course, profanity is redacted (sound is beeping).
• Ethical Disclaimer: This course is designed to explore the techniques of online trolling. It is presented for educational and experimental purposes only. We strongly advise against replicating these activities on your personal social media accounts. The goal is to explore the dynamics safely and hypothetically.
