I just cannot, you know, believe in a war against drugs when they’ve got anti-drug commercials on TV all day long, followed by, “This Bud’s for you.”
Behind the line
What it means
Our interpretation.
An anti-drug message followed by a beer advertisement creates the contradiction the speaker wants the audience to notice. The sequence puts a warning and a commercial invitation beside each other. The criticism rests on that juxtaposition, questioning the consistency of the messages rather than describing a particular viewer’s behaviour.
