the article is propaganda btw! many autistic people are still affected by marketing and the like! NO ONE IS IMMUNE

There’s no one a con man loves more than someone who thinks they’re too smart to be conned.

People who think they're immune to ads are the most vulnerable to ads.

NO ONE IS IMMUNE

Sorry but I'm built different

braille marketing

Yes, no one is immune to propaganda in the sense of misinformation.

Ads on the other hand... The often quoted subconscious working of ads just doesn't work on me: i choose my müesli based on parameters (like texture, taste,...), not on whims! So ads go on one side in, out on the other.

[–] [email protected] 20 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's called subconscious for a reason. You aren't concous about it.

How do you know that you choose your muesli based on parameters, when things like taste are influenced by the brand and design of the package. No this is not a joke and there actually have been studies on this.

Have you considered those ads simply aren't targeted at people like you but at the mainstream instead? And that you may well still be susceptible to adds targeted at your kind of mindset?

Yes, that's what i said?

And that you may well still be susceptible to adds targeted at your kind of mindset?

You mean ads for products i would choose based on my need and their qualities? Gladly. But im rather careful with my privacy and see ads only on the street, so there's that.

Don't get buthurt so easily.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Another side effect of ads: you think you want Muesli for breakfast, not soup or fried egg.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Nah, i just can't stomach more in the first few hours.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

You buy your muesli...? You know you can make it cheaply and easily, right?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Did you make a blind test on your Müsli? Get several different brands and eat them blind.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

There's health a big consideration, since it's something almost daily. So 5-corn with wholewheat flakes and fruit it is. Next convenience store has only one brand of it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok if dug that deep into details there is no need for a test.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What "detail". Average 20's to 40's person cares too less for their health and are then suffering and expensive when they get old.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Well I don't care about my food that much that I choose my cerial on most healthy option. I eat what I want when I feel like it. As long as I don't eat only unhealthy food this should work out. And if I get to 100 or only 80 because of tthat I don't care.
