So weird to imagine having political adverts on television.
We have them here for big elections, kinda, but they’re special government mandated broadcasts that each party have access to in order to get their message out for free to ensure equal representation, otherwise you could have a situation where the party with the most money to burn could sway the election results in their favour with a bigger ad campaign.

in the US we get around this problem by having the same corporate and 1% donors funding all 2 of our political parties. so whether you vote for wage slavery or you vote for begrudgingly agreeing to wage slavery, you know your voice will be heard and you will die penniless and starving.
The easy way to avoid them is just to not watch broadcast television. Something I’ve been doing for a decade now. I haven’t seen a political TV ad since then.

Citizens United says that money is free speech… so all the adverts by all the political action committees
Practically the GD dog catcher gets pac money. :/
