I find that many current adverts are like that, but, oddly, that if anything makes them effective.

I know there are many who like to claim they are immune to advertising, but, the greedy Capitalists would not expend money on advertising, unless they were pretty sure that it was effective.

This was discussed in the Trump thread.
The conclusion was, he’s said sorry so just move along, nothing to see.
The USA is a very strange foreign country, especially when guns are involved.

The thing is, historically it's true that the UK has been colonised by immigrants, and if he'd left it there it would have been hard to argue.
