Yes, I agree. It can. Just like film can encourage aggressive behavior. Or video games or music or fashion or art literally anything.

But to act like none of those can equivalently be used for good is pretty unfair.

If it didn't, advertising would not work. I take that it works because companies spend billions trying to persuade people and do via advertising.
