As always, "catharsis" is bs and the familiarity effect is once again too strong.
Repeated expositions is the very KEY mechanism, tweaking your brains despite all the good will/intent/reason/"awareness"/etc. Ask yourself why/how you still recognize brands you don't even buy or use -- hint : that's also why advertisers care very less about the quality of their advertisements, but care a LOT more about how many times and to how many targets will it be exposed.
