The advertisers don’t give a shit about all that stuff, you’re supposed to buy things to make the company money. If there was no money to he gained, they wouldn’t sell and advertise it. They’re just trying to convince you you need product x for activity y
The advertisers don’t care. But, the people they’re advertising things to do care. For them, profit is not valued above all these other things, thus the advertisers need to target things they do care about: friends, family, status, leisure activities, etc.

I agree with that. But the claim was that capitalism puts profit above all else, not necessarily that individual people do that.
Capitalism is people.
In a similar way to how feudalism is people?
Yes, all the isms are people.
