fine- here's two more ways it fits:
advertising is non-consensual, almost everyone would rather not see ads and not internalize its ideas
advertising is precise and scientific, it is done by powerful groups at large scale
and truthfully, if this comment was part of an astroturfing campaign by an agency if have no problem calling it a brainwashing attempt. or call it something else, its all semantics. murder if you're mad, loss of life if you're not sort of thing
- card_zero 3y agoThe article says "mind clearing and reprogramming" is the sense we all usually think of, and that doesn't apply to advertising, even if it's totally dishonest like astroturfing. So although we could agree to call it brainwashing now we've established what we mean, in conversation with a general audience, we shouldn't, because that would be misleading. But anyway, it's been nice brainwashing with you today, I'm glad we had this opportunity to brainwash each other.
- ninju 3y ago> advertising is non-consensual, almost everyone would rather not see ads and not internalize its ideas Advertising, by product producers, on media platforms serves a purpose of informing the customers of what is available for purchase. At times I will watch over the air TV, or other FAST streaming services, just to keep aware of what is new in the marketplaces
