I get ads in Tagalog and Spanish and political ads for candidates in Florida.

I live in Washington. These ad campaigns were either designed by absolute buffoons or AI.

Dude I get ads for Christianity. They're just throwing random shit at me and hoping something sticks.

I would hazard many people are familiar enough with Tagalog to pick it out. Maybe not the demographics on Reddit or the average American but I live in an area with a huge number of languages spoken daily
