    I really dislike ads, so usually I have them blocked, but not all my devices have it done yet. Usually it’s just capital trying to get me to buy things so I just scroll past, but just over the weekend it was scary how quickly ads relating to Iran’s retaliatiatory action started popping up with the obvious slant you would expect in the west. There seems to be a concerted effort to start beating war drums… This is not including the horrific ads I’ve seen coming from Zionists over the last half year with blatantly genocidal language. I even reported those ads and nothing came of it of course.

    I guess to sum up: ads can and are used as political tools to shape ideology. Yet another reason to get everyone you know on an ad blocker.
