Advertising discourages people from being different individuals by making us all want to do the same and look the same. To what extent do you agree or disagree.

#people #individuals #want
Nowadays the promotion of different products has increased largely due to modern technology. It is argued that
advertisements
 prevent
people
 from being unique and make them want to do the same things. I do not quite agree with
this
 view. In my opinion, advertising cannot really suppress the individuality of
people
.
Although
 modern technology has enabled adverts to reach all sections of

society, they cannot fully take away the unique behaviours and characters of
people
. They may wear clothes of the same colour and pattern;
however
, the way they carry the dress is totally different.
For instance
, we can dress up twins in similar attire but cannot control how they react or behave; it is totally their wish to be themselves. So,
advertisements
 cannot suppress / control individuality.
Furthermore
, the advertisement has no control over the customers or how they take the products and
moreover
 they cannot expect them to have the same mindset about their products. Every individual is different and unique both physically and mentally.
Hence
 their way of thinking and using the product will be different. It all depends on the person.
For example
, a laptop can be used for many different purposes. So
people
 will use them as they need for their unique purpose. So the advertisement cannot decide how
people
 will use a product. In conclusion, even though
advertisements
 have grown hugely these days they cannot make
people
 lose their uniqueness and characters.
Therefore
, I firmly disagree with the argument that
advertisements
 discourage
people
 from being unique.
