Yeah I've been clean for two around years now. The adverts are the worst part, they are designed to play on the worst parts of the human psyche: greed, fear, envy, self-doubt, jealousy, selfishness, etc, etc. Whilst the MSM news is mostly pro-war propaganda and the TV shows promote a consumerist lifestyle that is far out of reach for most people leading to subconscious feelings of inadequacy in order to drive more consumerism/debt.
