    I’m actually all for banning commercials and ads yes thank you. The rise of marketing as an industry has caused more toxicity than any other

      Well, it is a capitalist nation. You also don’t have to watch them and you certainly don’t need to act on them. Commercials help fund television. If you don’t want to see them, don’t watch TV. Unless you think that should just all be offered for free. Actors should work for free, camera crews, sound, lighting, writers… all free, right?
