Advertising is Poison Gas

#19 of 20 from the Yaldabaoth’s Witnesses postcard set

"Advertising," wrote 60s era ad-man George Lois, "is poison gas. It should bring tears to your eyes. It should unhinge your nervous system. It should knock you out!"

This image depicts the founder of the Japanese cult "Aum Supreme Truth," who tried numerous times to release poison gas into the Tokyo subway system, flanked by two beautiful fetish-babes as an infomercial for poison gas runs on the corporate AV system beneath him.

The sad thing is, Madison Avenue probably would take a homocidal Japanese cult as a client if the money was good enough!
