advertising is fascinating and I hate it in that shitty \u201ccorporate drones turning us into zombies\u201d way, which sounds like something right out of fight club and so I hate myself for hating it for that childish and condescending reason but holy shit let\u2019s talk about advertising\u00a0

the thing is though that it doesn\u2019t turn us into zombies, advertising works by emotionally arousing us and making us feel. it\u2019s actually the opposite of being turned into zombies and if we ever feel that way it\u2019s because the hyperstimulation of advertising has made real life seem hollow and empty and false, and also exhausted us and made relating to how we spontaneously react to real emotive stimulus seem strange and wrong
