We could have set the culture up to be hostile towards the encroachment of this stuff. That's what we do control. Spread the memes. Make the content and share the channels and sites that point out the sell outs. We all could have pointed out this stuff earlier and actually been hostile towards it. We all should and still should reject and be hostile towards any kind of advertising. This stuff is fucking everywhere.
If you take a step back and consider how much of your life is someone trying to sell you something its just insanity that we've let it get this far and nobody has put a fight up against it. Hell we only get like 4 fucking hours a night of free time and if I'm giving away 2 to commercials and advertising then fuck me what the hell am I doing. We all deserve entertainment to relax in accosted by someone trying to hawk their bullshit.
