Interesting… It reminds me of tactics long used by pharmaceutical and tobacco companies, and now being intensively used by cosmetics and food industries.

How very sinister.

Not quite as sinister as Zara's 2023 campaign flouting Arab shrouds for the dead just as Palestinians were struggling to find enough cloth to wrap their thousands of martyred civilians and children in - but its own dark capitalist kind of sinister.

Doubt is the product. I'm going to be thinking about that for a long time. What an insight. You've named the feeling I have when I look at so much fashion advertising and BOF updates these days.
