yea advertising only works so far as to put a brand into peoples minds, which might make push someone towards brand A over brand B at the grocery. the value is in organic advertising, ie "someone you trust tells you that this thing or this person is good"

hence the fake grassroots movements, the influencers, etc.

except astroturfing wont take unless theres a critical mass of true believers/dumbasses to pick up on it though, so trump being a terminally online tv show host was pretty much the perfect storm for pushing the dumbasses to join the true believers (ie his crappy approval ratings) into an electoral victory. also your weird system.

What if the thing to be learned is that democrats are just off-brand republicans that no one wants and we're doing everything possible to avoid learning that lesson?
