My apologies. I was responding to the fact that animals and humans have base instincts that steer us towards bad food choices or over-stimulations. I was considering those instincts as the incentives that can't be changed.

On a macro scale, yes I agree that we should revolt against campaigns designed to exploit our animal nature. However on a personal basis, I do believe we owe it to ourselves to take radical responsibility over our own reactions to those things.

I agree. We have individual agency and also the corporations and systems around us have agency in ways that affect us.

My initial comment was disagreeing with the claim that any systemic problem foisted on the world is solely the fault of our individual wills to resist it.
