Deck 1 of 10? All poses for each K, Q, J the same. $7 shipping for $19 deck. Oooo, they're printing the inside red, wow. Not for me.
Move on, nothing to see here.

The creator really lost sight of any useful message he was intending. It's a bit tone-deaf for 2020 if you are trying to position a project as one for women's empowerment.

Is this 1970? Women can't be successful? :lol:

I am only commenting on this because the reality of this project is that it's insanely chauvinistic, even though he's trying to bring women front-and-center. The worst part of this project? It's called KNOCKER (i.e. bewbs). The women are just spilling out of their bodices. I'm no prude and I own several decks with voluptuous characters, but this might as well be a Hartsoe deck with that kind of name and visual objectification. Why try to sell the delusion this is anything remotely close to empowerment?

Lel... card deck with a philosophical idea...
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

Just what Jung had in mind. I’m sure.

He certainly put the "JUG" in Jung - that's for sure :D

It has colour inside 😳! I guess this year's innovation award is claimed already. Hand them the DOTY...

Urgh... especially to those transitions.
