In the Netflix series "The Fall of the House of Usher," there's a monologue that delves deep into the dark heart of marketing's power over public perception. It's a chilling reminder of how easily we can be swayed, manipulated, and controlled by the relentless barrage of advertising, branding, and propaganda that saturates our everyday lives. "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade?"
What we consume, where we put our money is deeply personal and this monologue made me do a double take and really begin to think about the companies and the motives behind the marketing - so I just wanted to share it with you to - because for some reason I can’t shake it.
