This is just pure nonsense. I don't doubt you believe it, but Facebook's earnings/advertiser's spend coupled with demonstrated user behavior very quickly put your logic to rest. The statement that nobody wants to see ads that would cause them to spend more money sounds more like a personal preference (and one that I would strongly question in the real world) than an objective fact about society at large.

I don't follow your leap of logic.

I could just as easily say those earnings reports proof how effective psychological warfare is at exploiting the weakness and insecurities of humans in order to part them from the fruits of their labour.
