They've diluted their material as badly as a gallon of water in a cup of ramen.
Don't get me wrong. They have had legendary articles, but those come once in a blue moon.
A lot of the time they try to write profound social commentary using the format and fail. This idea would have been better and more respected if 95% of what they've released... wasn't.
