I wouldnt go as far to make this claim, as I believe more people than not fall victim of this deceit daily. See social medias.
- piva00 3y agoI think being aware of the deceit doesn't make one immune to it. I'm aware of the deceit of marketing and PR, still I do fall for some of it sometimes. Personally that's the most infuriating part.
- kroolik 3y agoYou are right. Awareness doesn't imply immunity. I still believe a lot of people are simply unaware of the deceit, making the problem bigger (or more saddening)
- JohnFen 3y agoThis was one of the many interesting things I learned in marketing classes: there are numerous underhanded psychological tricks used in order to manipulate people's beliefs and buying habits, and it's interesting to know what they are. But it's also really clear from the data that being aware of them doesn't make you less susceptible to them.
