  You said ads, but I think you meant “late stage capitalism”

    True. That is the generalization of this rule.

  And that’s why vandalism to destroy them is ethical.

    Please don’t do this

    It won’t end well for you. A better option is a boycott

      I default to having a meltdown, smashing the screen, yelling “where is the goddamn mute button”.

      Is this unhinged, yes. But if we all did it, they would eventually get the message.

      Really though, I mostly get gas at Costco cuz it’s cheaper and they don’t do that shit.

      An even better option is to use a credit card and only get 10¢ of gas.

        I think the credit card frees are now a percentage

      If you can’t boycott, maybe some noise canceling headphones to wear while you pump, and Instead of looking at the screen, wash your windows, and dump all your car trash into their bins.
