yep, it’s a psychological attack (on your subconscious) to create unrealistic expectations and feelings of inadequacy among consumers who do not experience the same outcomes.
whether you pay attention to it or not, it’s still a psychic attack

I think that is literally, objectively evil. How can we fight back? I already use adblocks online, that is one way, I think.

Stop giving your money to the giant companies that fund and perpetuate surveillance ad tech. Shop local.
