Bill: Consumer Protection from Aggressive Advertising Act
Details
Submitted by[?]: Yeudish Left Alliance ברית שמאל
Status[?]: defeated
Votes: This is an ordinary bill. It requires more yes votes than no votes. This bill will not pass any sooner than the deadline.
Voting deadline: August 4335
Description[?]:
| In the modern day, advertisers are able to push products on people in very aggressive ways. We see the application of Bernaysian advertising all over, and it threatens the sanctity of a consumer's own mind. Advertising should be limited to stating the explicit purpose of the product and its price, and it must not use blatantly Bernaysian principles such as herd mentality or psychoanalytic principles. |

I am not prepared to give up what my party accomplished in such a short amount of time just to please you and your authoritarians. |
