If society is not going to allow normal people to have enough money to buy anything, can it at least stop bombarding us with advertising

@jalefkowit no

@jalefkowit There's been a few brands lately whose ads have really grated.

I saw one this morning about a financial advisor or wealth influencer or something talking to a client who's real estate portfolio has exceeded $7 million and I'm like ... I'm not your target audience, and also ... read the room.

The other brand is an Australian bank advertising their savings products, showing someone checking their phone and seeing a $250 interest payment for the month. I don't think I've earned $250 interest over the past TEN YEARS!

@jalefkowit Nope. That's why there are ice hockey leagues: because of powerbreaks and making folks to spend their money for nonsence.

@jalefkowit sorry for what is happening to your side.
Which country are you from?

[capnthommo@c.im]

@jalefkowit naw. Gotta keep creating the desire even though you can't afford it. Gotta create that yawning chasm in your lives otherwise you might just ignore our tat.
