Not imo, no.

The gambling companies are the most blatant at this. Every other ad, online, on tv etc is for gambling. They've been clever in recent years with the heavy promotion of everyday gambling being a social thing. They've done a 'great' job at normalising everyday gambling. I used to bet every weekend without fail on the football, though my last bet was the World Cup. After a good few grand wasted over the years down, i just find the idea of betting boring now.

The alcohol industry are also making a big push to attract the next gen of drinkers. Bud Light had a good go with that trans person on the cans. Especially for trying to attract younger people to drink beer, which has been on the downfall with younger drinkers over the years. Regardless of whether you drink beer or not, Bud Light is awful, so many other better tasting beers than that rubbish.
