  There’s no one a con man loves more than someone who thinks they’re too smart to be conned.

    People who think they’re immune to ads are the most vulnerable to ads.

  Yes no one is immune to propaganda in the sense of misinformation.

  Ads on the other hand… The often quoted subconscious working of ads just doesn’t work on me: i choose my müesli based on parameters, not on whims!

    It’s called subconscious for a reason. You aren’t concous about it.

    How do you know that you choose your muesli based on parameters, when things like taste are influenced by the brand and design of the package. No this is not a joke and there actually have been studies on this.

      1. The term subconscious is outdated, pre-conscious a better fit.

      2. pre- conscuous is a lot less “pre-” for me than for normal functioning people; i know pretty well what goes on there.

      when things like taste are influenced by the brand and design of the package.

      Brand not at all and müesli goes in a box without label. :-p

      Consider this: conscious is not = conscious. Especially in abnormal cases.

        Preconcusness isn’t the whole subconscousness but only the part that could be brought into consciousness

    Have you considered those ads simply aren’t targeted at people like you but at the mainstream instead? And that you may well still be susceptible to adds targeted at your kind of mindset?

      Yes, that’s what i said?

      And that you may well still be susceptible to adds targeted at your kind of mindset?

      You mean ads for products i would choose based on my need and their qualities? Gladly. But im rather careful with my privacy and see ads only on the street, so there’s that.

      Don’t get buthurt so easily.

    Another side effect of ads: you think you want Muesli for breakfast, not soup or fried egg.

      Nah, i just can’t stomach more in the first few hours.

    Did you make a blind test on your Müsli? Get several different brands and eat them blind.

      There’s health a big consideration, since it’s something almost daily. So 5-corn with wholewhet flakes and fruit it is.

        Ok if dug that deep into details there is no need for a test.
