Just don't buy the plastic crap from China they're advertising. Or in the case of Disney, well, you don't need me to tell you not to watch their movies.

#2  Advertising is propaganda. When it was limited to bending your thinking towards the advertiser's product, that was maybe acceptable. Now that it is a carry-all for lots of noxious messages, it is past time to heavily regulate it.
