So your proposed "solution" to "brainwashing" is more "brainwashing" . Really I think the problem is that you have a misunderstanding about brainwashing and are using it simply for it's shock value. You are using the term "brainwashing" without a complete understanding of what that actually is and are confusing it with propoganda and persuasive advertising. These are not at all the same thing. Brainwashing is a process of very intensive conditioning over a long period of time. The primary aspects of this conditioning are social issolation, and repeated cycles of reward and punishment until the ego is broken down or supressed. With the exception of some religious groups or cults, everything you describe is NOT that.
