i mean people already do this thanks in part to the hyperindividualism where people build their identity through the brands they consume.

An example, i only knew about MCU latest movie because a friend i have is walking MCU ad, he couldnt stop talking about going to watch this Thunderbolts movie. In farming on one side you have guys who are john deere extremists and in the other side you got massey ferguson fundamentalists, rarely you find someone that objectively uses both.

heck people build their identities based on the car brand they drive or the console brand they play instead and thus become walking ads for the brands.
