The collective community ends up paying a lot more in quality of life with these ads up. Also, ads are the primary way to get the lower economic classes to give their money to the rich.
- okr 3y agoYou give money to get goods. What is wrong about that?
- AnimalMuppet 3y agoYou give money you can't really afford to give in order to get goods that you don't really need. You do so because advertisers are skilled professionals, and are better at manipulating you than you are at not being manipulated. And they have put themselves in places where you cannot help but see them. That's what's wrong about that.
- JAlexoid 3y agoThis has little to do with advertising. Consumer sentiment will be shaped by media other than advertising. You watching Instagram of people drinking alcohol and (seemingly) having fun will make you want to drink alcohol. Ads for a particular type of alcohol will only steer your selection of product, but do not induce a desire to get it.
- jefftk 3y ago> ads are the primary way to get the lower economic classes to give their money to the rich This seems very implausible. People's largest expenses are things like housing, healthcare, childcare, and groceries, which are mostly not driven by advertising.
