Please don't write comments with bold assertions (younger people are less susceptible to ads because they are more familiar with the internet) and then use sneaky caveats to try to back off of those assertions.

My assertion is that there is a huge difference between how easy it is to manipulate someone who grew up with ubiquitous marketing vs. someone that did not. Enough that it will become a defining part of generational gaps. The only reason you think I’m backing off of my assertion is because you’re putting words in my mouth

> huge difference between how easy it is to manipulate someone who grew up with ubiquitous marketing vs. someone that did not.

That is an absurd assertion and you are showing an incredible amount of hubris if you think you are somehow "harder to manipulate because you've grown up with ubiquitous marketing".
