Some commercials surf on that new trend of drug use, by showing them, cocaine, marijuana and many more are used. It can be some commercials about clothe, food actually literally everything possible, the main point being to chock the audience and make them remember the commercial. But often those commercial are banned or extremely criticize. The perfect example would be the commercial done by Sisley a french clothing companies known to be chocking with their advertising. Showing those two young girls sniffing a dress is meant to show that fashion is something that should be addictive for women, "Sisley fashion junkie" as only inscription. More than that it normalise those kind of behaviours, and shows to young girls but not only, any person walking thru those kind of ads, that those kind of behaviour are "normal". Think about explaining this add to a young children, what would u say ?
I find it shocking that companies use drugs as an aspect of their commercials and I think suck ads should be banned. Some may say it is not a big deal, but by this and also popularizing drugs in music leads to the fact, that people percieve drugs as a much more normal thing that it used to be, and I think that is a very bad path to go.
