I honestly kind of like getting instagram ads relevant to my interests. Right now I'm getting a lot of solar charge controllers.

But that's not how advertising normally works.

They don't want peanuts from solar charge controller companies, they want big money from say political campaigns whose ads or news articles will read "<opposing-politician> wants to defund solar" or "<our-politician> loves solar".
