    The most dystopian ones for me are the ones that are just for a company, not for any specific product. You see that sometimes for companies like Raytheon that don't sell stuff to the general public but still need PR so people don't automatically associate them with drone strikes and shit.

      Oil giants making ads about how environmentally friendly they is beyond disgusting, it is straight up a taunt to the people. Those motherfuckers know exactly what they're doing to the planet, the literally the first institution to receive researches on climate collapse years before it became public knowledge. An ad where they just show their executives living in opulence while calling us stupid powerless proles would be less insulting in my opinion.

        There's another factor to those ads. The new oil and gas sector talking point is "we need a certain amount of oil, would you rather us buy it from our GREEN, AMERICAN refineries or from DIRTY, OPPRESSIVE countries like Saudi Arabia/Venezuela/Iran/Russia/etcetc".

      I love trains, but I remember the Warren buffet owned BNSF sponsoring the news program on PBS.

      Why? nobody gets to decide which tracks their freight travels on, even if they're a decision-maker at a large freight company.
