This isn’t a metaphor. Just a story about a roach.

This assumes you’re in the market for the product / can boycott it.
For example the biggest culprit of this in my area are ads saying “stop hiring humans” for some AI company. I may hate the company, but my opinion doesn’t matter. The only people that would be in the market for something like that are ghoulish CEOs who just view employees as a cost on their balance sheet. If that ad can make them laugh and look into your product, it doesn’t matter if the other 99% if people hate your company.
Well yes, in this instance I assumed they were talking about the converse ad, and I was literally about to buy some new shoes from them cause my favourite ones just ripped. I saw the ad, will now find another brand to purchase from.
Aw man I just bought some new Converse a couple weeks ago. What’s this new ad they have going on?

The ad essentially showed what appeared to be a hanging pair of converse, held up by a person wearing a white long skirt, and a ‘trick of the light’ reflected what appeared to be a KKK hat. Wasn’t terribly subtle.
