Haha what? Advertising is a distributed global brainwashing campaign, by the wealthy, against the working class. They don't hire psychologists to exploit our lizard brains for no reason, and that's why it needs to be outlawed.

That’s a generalization. The White Rose was doing “advertising”, and I think that’s all but “by the wealthy, against the working class”.

Advertising has its place and can be beneficial to society, it just needs regulations (admittedly, A LOT of them).

@RedditIsDeddit @Olhonestjim If ads were banned, they wouldn't have to.
