Advertising is the edge of what people know how to do and of human experience and it explains the latest ways progress has changed us to ourselves.
Every time we give a musician the advice to give away the music and sell the T-shirt, we're saying, "Don't make your living in this more elevated way. Instead, reverse this social progress, and choose a more physical way to make a living." We're sending them to peasanthood, very much like the Maoists have.
Governments oppress people, but so do mobs. You need to avoid both to make progress.
