Advertising is absolutely morally reprehensible. It is propaganda that exists only to manipulate people into buying shit they didn't want or need. And it turns out that mindless consumerism is destroying society and our planet.

I never said it wasn't morally reprehensible. Only that it's less morally reprehensible than something like making weapons.
