In a way yeah sure, but the unconscius doesn't forget 24/7 ads. We can't possibly escape them since they're literally everywhere. Whatever you buy, is done under the influence of at least some kind of advertisement (buy cheap/ fancy/ green/ fuckall)

TLDR: we're lazy.

I would add that nonetheless, every sovereign country can and should stand up for itself. Also this is not just a couple Qurans burned, its racism more in general on the rise here in europe.
