  • This is the stupidest take.

    If anything, you’re arguing that the protests accomplished none of the goals of the protestors, and only managed to escalate and incite a response that was a “warning” that worse will come if we don’t keep it up.

    So… it still seems fucking pointless to me? Like for fucks sake, we’re all just waiting for him to die of natural causes and hope that the coalition falls apart, doing a whole bunch of pointless shit until then because we all know that violence is the only way to remove him at this point.

    Naive fucks. The people who support him are just as committed to keeping power.

    It’s clear that advertising has a lot of power to influence people’s choices, otherwise oligarchs wouldn’t burn so much money on it.

    Marketing, advertising, etc. It’s a science, a field of study. What is the goal? To make people buy things, ostensibly. How do they chose to do achieve that goal? Deep analysis of the human psyche and studying methods to manipulate them into taking intended actions.

    Advertising is the science of psychological warfare.

    When people don’t know any better, we’re all very much “monkey see monkey do”.

    A lot of us grew up with examples of the kinds of parents we don’t want to be, not many of us grew up with good examples of the kind of parenting we would like to provide.
