When did we outsource our shared culture to corporate identities as shorthand for those shared experiences

Some time during the 80s. I think it was one of Reagan's first bills

I remember in my childhood in the 90s, like, if you went to a different town, you would get completely different stores.

Now every town has the same stores.

@Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world makes a good point—Reagan admin legalized advertising to children. And now children of the 80s and later have nostalgia for corporate products and experiences
