Have been feeling this strongly recently. The people with the most signs are the least appealing to support. The food with the most advertisements seems the most likely to be trying to lure people into eating garbage.

Surely there is a word for this? Spam doesn't feel like the right term when it's all over the place all the time. It's like you know it's wrong because there's too much money involved trying to convince everyone it's right.

Sound like you're describing a sense of being immune to advertising or it having the opposite effect on your consumer behaviour.

I believe the term for this is "self-deception"
