For decades, if I happen to hear ads playing on radio or something, i literally stick my fingers in my ears and go LALALALA until it stops or I have left.
You’re not selling me SHIT today, I will never be part of your brainwashing scheme.
I feel like it’s turning into a genuine schism in our society. The “it’s fine, I just deal with it”s and the “I swear to fucking god I’ll burn it all down before I see/hear a single goddamn ad”s.
The Time Machine needs to be remade with this in mind.
The reason why ads are such a big business is because they work on everyone, even those who say they’ll go out of their way to not use the brand they saw ads for.
I’m surprised people are capable of tolerating the shit it’s fucking awful

I think the ads on TV can be an important cultural touchstone.
I just switch it off. If its not my device my interest in what ever was on immediately shuts down and I go do something else.
Like a comedy show is on the TV at a relatives house and I walk by, its entertaining and I sit down to watch with them. Oh adverts, off I go then.
I take the remote and mute the ad for its duration.
I listen to or see and enjoy the adverts, then I don’t buy their products. They spent that money advertising at me, and get nothing.
Do you know how many car adverts I’ve seen on TV in my life? Hundreds.
I can’t even drive.
