Meta-Marketing

PepperMe.com, a site affiliated with the Dr Pepper beverage, presents various comic characters. Most poignant is Stash, who talks digustedly about the consumer society. This, kids, is 'meta-marketing': commercialism making fun of commercialism. Modern-day consumers are so fed up with ads that that disgust is what ads cater to.
This development suggests that the assault on our minds is almost over. Stash wants you to buy Dr Pepper. That's the sole reason he exists. Ignore him and the marketeers are weaponless. Then, we'll start buying things based on quality, and creativity will be back with artists, where it belongs.
