Your point?

E: just want to make clear, the attribution of apathy or nihilism to the general pubic isn't genuine or useful.

Companies can do whatever they want and it literally doesn't matter because they will keep making money

Missing nuance.

The point is people are impressively stupid and impulsive

His point is simple enough that you should understand. Use your brain.

This is a good question to ask. This person is not very critical of what they've said and is clearly satisfied with liberal (as in liberalism) explanations for people's behaviour.

Their point is that people are just fundamentally bad and that is why these companies make profit despite an apparently universal condemnation of their actions. It's shallow, inaccurate, and is only useful to feel morally superior to some imagined decadent group that they believe is the source of this problem.
