Look, you're doing it right now! You're trying to convince all readers of your point of view. And you're using repetition to do it. That's cool with me, but is it any different from paid advertising except in the detail that you don't have to pay to do it?

Is anybody completely immune to this kind of influence? I doubt it. Is anybody completely helpless to resist it? I don't buy that either.

But check this out. How come the troubled parent industry websites don't use Google ads? They buy them, alright. So they know about how it works. And they could, theoretically, turn a buck from all those myriad websites they've got out there. So why not do it?

I have a theory. I think it's because they can't. They can't allow a random sampling of whatever's out there into their marketing material. What they're selling is a scam. The pitch requires a high pressure tactic, including as much control as possible over what the mark is thinking about.

We don't have that problem. Now...

Who'd a thunk it: Ginger, a propaganda apologist!

Now Ginger, if my words were mere repetition I wouldn't give you such wholesome and original questions to mull over as I did in that last anonymous post.

If you don't think there is a big difference between conversation and propaganda, which are you engaged in?

In case nobody's noticed the VAST MAJORITY of those ads are already gone.  Seems WWASPS etc. feel the need to control any and all info.  Ginger was right.
