    You know we’ve been talking about the US the entire time. You earlier in this same thread:

    There hasn’t been an ad for alcohol on US TV for decades

    Idk what future you’re from, but these have all been within very recent decades:

        There are literal tv ads for alcohol in that link. You’re as dumb as you think you are smart.

          Those who live in a historical vacuum and think the world is summerized in a still picture … For decades there were no tv ads in America’s public tv … are we living in parallel universe … The first hit I get on search engines is NBC admitting to voluntarily end a 50y long policy of not airing liquor ads.
