Where did I say it was? Different people are allowed to think in different ways, live their lives however they want, and take their decisions on a whim… or not.
ads use various mechanisms to manipulate you
Fun fact, I used to work in ad design for some time, pretty sure I know the basics.
I can even tell you a trade secret: when an ad for product A convinces 20% of the people to buy it instead of product B, while the rest buy them at random… the ad is a huge success! Now 60% of people are buying product A, with a market share 50% larger than the competition! It means you can increase markups 200% or more and still have revenue soar even as most people switch to product B.
Here is a great German video on the topic
That video keeps talking about the input (ad watching) effect with a mindless output (product selection) action.
I keep telling you the input effect is irrelevant when the output action is not mindless… none of which has anything to do with whether an ad “works” or not.
