The document discusses why some brands try to appear "nice" through sustainability initiatives rather than embracing being an "asshole" brand. It argues that "sexy" brands seeking passion and creativity do not need to appear nice to differentiate, and that people are actually more attracted to "assholes". The document suggests brands should not be afraid to be assholes and increase their sex appeal, as asshole brands will find an audience just as people are attracted to assholes in their personal lives.
