    My mom and I were talking about a documentary with totem poles in it, and when I got home Instagram showed me an ad to buy totem poles. That’s not a coincidence. I was not a believer before, I believed the “they just know your interests so well” talking point.

      hopefully its coincidence and confirmation bias, or your conversation and the ad were both inspired by something instagram already knew, right ?
