  1. I agree, Americans are extremely gullible. So are Russians, but only in certain contexts. Usually we are stone-faced and analytical, but when we (they, really) have their sense of national pride toyed with, they become very tribal and defensive. Stupid, even. Also, behavioral psychology doesn't always work. There are too many factors at play to have a direct cause --> effect relationship. For example, simply being aware of the tactics makes you less susceptible to them, so long as you remain self-aware in the moments where the trick is being employed. Also, you can mitigate the effects of the grocery store by having a list, and forming a habit that counters the default psychological inclination. Same goes with McDonald's. Red and yellow may mean "hungry!", but not if you know what they put in the food.
