and you know what? i am REALLY sick of these ads that are openly mocking people for being concerned about the products theyâre selling.
Amazonâs super bowl ad where the Alexa mocks Chris Hemsworth for being worried about giving spy software control over his entire life. Waymoâs ad with the intro âthe robots are coming!â mocking people who are rightfully extremely concerned about sharing the road with, or riding in, self-driving cars.
i donât know, itâs just genuinely insane to me. âOh, you have legitimate concerns about our shitty product? sounds like youâre just lame!!!â like what kind of âquiet part out loudâ marketing is that?
It's McDonalds rhetoric.
We all know the story of the woman who had coffee spilt on her lap and sued McDonalds for millions, and how McDonalds turned it into "oh nooo coffee hot" when the story is more along the lines of this woman needed corrective surgery to her bits because the superheated water that hit her lap melted it.
The marketing is effectively trying to paint people with genuine concerns as conspiracy theorists so that other people will openly mock them. The ad isn't about getting you to give up your concerns.
It's about turning you into a laughing stock in the eyes of others.
Wait, for real?!
For real, friend.
