of course advertising is honest; like the adverts for aging cream which show young beautiful women holding their newborn while the brand implies that that child will hate their wrinkly haggard old arse pretty soon and they should buy this in a forlorn mission to remain youthful despite the terrors of motherhood and mortality. Kids hate ugly old people, its a valid strategy.
Real people really have these fears and hang ups, therefor advertising is utterly honest in exploiting them for gain. What the fuck else is having a big brain and access to a mass populace of sub intelligent plebs for exactly if not to make cash?
Plus, we WANT to buy into brands, we love them, we don;t just love trainers, we love what a particular type of trainer says about us; we're complete commercialised fucktards, advertising is *serving our needs*. yay for advertising.
and coke. and hookers. from bulgaria. they *want* to work in the sex trade. its fun, who wouldn't?
