ads don’t work on me b/c i’m poor
exactly.
At some point advertisers and big capitalist/corporate entities will realize we’re all to poor to buy literally anything .
I wonder what will happen then.
It’s been years since I watched an advert and thought “oh, I want that.” Lately, I’ve been analyzing ads in the same way that I do with movies and TV shows. What are the characters’ motivated by, what is the plot, when will the twist come, and what will it be.
I think that is why so many people have an issue with the peloton ad where the guy buys his wife one and she makes a video journal. It reminds us of an episode of Black Mirror because it appears to us as entertainment, not an advertisement.
I love seeing people analyze the folgers Christmas commercial every year
