Right? Similar experience. Even every other ad is telling you to save the climate by buying their product.
Funny how ads went from pitching:
Buy this because it’s good ->
Buy this and be cool ->
Buy this and save the planet.

Marketing is the devil's work.
Marketing is pretty much the backbone of capitalism.
If anything, the devil’s work is the fiat printer funding all this garbage.
Fiat is the devils sacrament
Its purveyors are his priests
the printer is his pitchfork
In the end there will be only bitcoin
To be specific, I am talking about manipulation through propaganda.
Capitalism is the free exchange of goods and services. It does not necessitate manipulation.
To do so is a perversion by the evil side of human nature.
Turning a man's weakness into your advantage. Ill gotten gains in an otherwise mutually beneficial agreement, to the detriment of the other party.
If there is a devil, he surely smiles at this corruption, as he does when the gov't enslaves us to debt.
I think the kind of marketing that that existed before Bernays was fair game: here is this product , this is what it does , this is the price , logo and tagline .
But the psychological warfare unit is called in any time some company needs an add for something , and now , thanks to the restructuring of the financial word visa-vi ESG's , companies are incentivised to toe the line politically , even if it means risking loss of revenue in the short term .
The fiat printer has created all sorts of manic distortion in the free market that I couldn't blame someone for thinking that things like marketing and capitalism are the devils work , because it is centralised in the hands of devils , and they make the rules .
