Well, you can definitely narrow it down to what you want to read and talk about. I'm interested in doing that with politics (US), and I'm very far away from any kind of PR or marketing person. People can genuinely want to talk politics, it's not always a corporate conspiracy.

The best kind of marketing is the type you are completely unaware of.

The world runs on money .... money is made by convincing people to give it to you ... our modern world is built on convincing people ... but people don't like being convinced ... so you have to convince them without letting them know they've been convinced.

It's not a corporate conspiracy ... it's just business.
