> What’s comical is the gall of General Mills, who has spent decades getting kids (myself included) addicted to sugar with manipulative advertising. Nature made everyone addicted to sugar. Of course not everyone is as prone to this as others, but sugar is energy and organisms (we included) need energy. Manipulative advertising is also a bit redundant. Advertisement is meant to be manipulative, which is maybe more obvious by a pejorative/synonym for advertisement: propaganda.
