Same. It’s a great way to get my hatred
Comment on Not real... *for now*
ThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.world 3 days agoMaybe it’s because I’m autistic but that has the opposite effect on me. If I see your ad enough to remember the product that just means I’m going to avoid that product like a fuckin plague.

Same. If I’m interested or looking for that product, I’ll do my research.
Just got a new pair of chukkas from a company I’ve never heard of (Thursday) based on research. Not ready to spend $500 for some boots, these were great quality at reasonable price for me.

Is this an ASD thing? That would make a lot of sense for my own behavior, if so.

You’re not immune to advertising and propaganda. Nobody is. Ads almost never work by directly making you think ‘i should buy this’. You’re even less immune to advertising and propaganda if you tell yourself you are, because that’ll make you less interested in working against it.

I wouldn’t say I think I’m immune simply that it generally works in the opposite direction.

I’m definitely not immune but sometimes an ad is annoying enough I decide I’m done with that company for a few years at least.

I haven’t bought Burger King since they started running that annoying fucking whopper ad, literally what pushed me into finally installing uBlock
