Nobody is immune to propaganda.

That said, when it comes to advertisements, I hate them passionately, and will often note the brand in the advert so I can avoid it.

I don't know how people can function while there's a flashy animated thing to one side of their screen, I literally cannot read the main content until that is gone or covered up. It muddled my brain until it's gone.

Heck, even an overly busy and colourful web page due to a bunch of static ads is very oppressive and difficult to deal with. An untidy website gives me an untidy mind, basically.

I just don't get how people wade through this crap and get anything done. I've blocked ads for decades now, and I'm never going back.

How do you know company A is really advertising to you Company B's product, which is a competitor of theirs?

Whenever I use a computer without an ad blocker, I'm literally holding out my hand on the screen to block the ad so it doesn't distract me. ADHD+ND is a bitch.
