I don't want your ad two minutes into my 7 minute clip. Especially not twice. I NEVER want a 2 hour advert... And when I listen to audiobooks and turn up the volume because of the narrator's soft soothing voice, I HATE getting a trumpet procession at 50 decibels over baseline, telling me I shoulda bought Helmans. I would tolerate a brief ad that clearly sponsored a video I want to watch. Too long and I can do without both. Tactics, that's 80% why. WAY too much seller tone-deafness.
And the other 20%: the all-pervasive woke seepage*, is brand-destroying. I have a near-endless list of brands that are gayer and blacker than they are BRANDED TO THEIR PURPORTED PURPOSES; these get opened and abandoned in-store, without purchase. I only buy stuff, when I can't recall which uniparty the maker donates to; and I have a good memory.
