"Wanna lose weight? Just stop eating" i-love-not-thinking

I'm convinced that advertising is mostly just capitalists scamming each other.

Sometimes it feels like the American economy, the tech sector at least certainly, is basically just a series of pyramid schemes that are all sort of loosely connected and propping each other up.

I've had this thought, but was never able to put it so succinctly. The whole industry is rich people paying other rich people way too much money to advertise an item that everyone in the world knows exists... It's weird.

rubes who aren't yet being scammed when the overhead for scams is calculated in cents and minutes are an inefficiency in the market.

I instinctively glanced at this, saw AI slop, and scrolled past hurriedly to avoid letting any information get into my head from it.

Then I though "wtf, hexbear doesn't have ads?" and came back to say it's a shitty ad

Thanks for your contribution

What I'm seeing is that capitalism has quite literally found a way to make people pay for not eating food.

As with all garbage scam ads, for time immemorial, they are garbage on purpose. Why waste your time with vaguely credulous people, when you can narrow it down to the most vulnerable and incredulous population possible?

You don't fall for the obvious scam because you aren't the target. Your grandpa, or your neurodiverse friend, are the target.

WTF? I'm neurodiverse AF and I ain't falling for this

[-] roux@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

Finally a picture of a person made out of a bottle of beer doing a poop. Thanks late stage capitalism!

This ad already succeeded by making you stop and look at it

I missed this when it came up in Facebook earlier. Thanks for posting here so I could snag the contact and get started on my WATER FASTING!

Unless it has a bear, a lion, a buffalo, and a dolphin all wearing dapper suits I'm really not interested

this genre of advertisment pablum nonsense is designed to work on minds already softened by the background inanity of "legitimate" content. i've especially noticed recently ads that encourage the target to self-identify into some kind of incomprehensible subcategory within an existing identity based on neurotype or body type or personality type. the ones i get are all about fictional "types" of ADHD.
