In all likelihood some of your own ideas were put there by a marketing department. Not because it’s good or right or useful but because they were hired to do it.

Manipulates you into going to the toy store and seeing that there is a boy’s section and girl’s section. And they are separate. Because there are two genders and they are in binary opposition to each other.
Marketing, propaganda, and politics is everything that you engage with all of the time. Any time you are in a group of three friends and you have to make a decision, the process by which you do it will be political in nature. The conclusion you reach will be based on the cultural context of the propaganda you were steeped in.
With this knowledge you can analyze the everyday politics and propaganda you encounter that you never even think about. You can make small changes to the politics you present and the propaganda you spread in the world. Every decision and action you take influences the people around you and all of that ripples out into the world. Something you do can inspire another person to act in a way that you would be inspired by. You may take an action and someone sees you and says “Yeah I’ve been feeling that, too! I was just too alone to say it, but now I know other people are out there”

Scalpers and “investors” are starting to fight people for the product, and they will probably pry it out of your dead hands.
