  • If I don’t hear or see them, how do they affect me, precisely?

    So you don’t believe in subtlety or that you might ever miss something. Yikes.

    EVERY SINGLE HUMAN ALIVE reacts the same to advertising.

    That’s pretty insane and obviously no one is even remotely claiming that. If that were true then every ad campaign would have either a 100% success or failure rate. Given that you could just use a focus single person to try things out on, then every single ad campaign would work on every human. Tell me who is claiming this?

    Yes I’m extremely “overconfident” because I claim that both you and I can be manipulated. Something so obviously true it’s silly id ever need to say it.






  • Standing up for confidently incorrect individuals is a silly waste of time. We all see and hear thousands of ads per year no matter how many we block. It is absurd to suggest that there are people who could be exposed to that much psychological manipulation and remain entirely unaffected.



  • Yes I’m sure you’ve never once seen an ad for a food or drink you already like, and then later purchased that food or drink because you started craving it over a period of a few hours. I’m sure you’ve never seen an ad for something you were already thinking of buying and then later bought it because the ad reminded you of it. Because you’re the one human in existence that is absolutely 100% impervious to any kind of influence whatsoever. What is it even like to be so confidently incorrect? Do you even think you’ve ever been wrong a single time about anything? That level of confidence is so foreign to me, I cannot fathom what it could possibly feel like.
