"But if your brand is just you, is that uncomfortable?
Extremely. It’s even worse to market your style. It’s truly sad. And everyone on Facebook has the same sort of marketing ploy selling their image." (From The Guardian.)
Which is "worse" in the above context? Is it "your brand" or "to market your style"?

"What does that do to people?
"It’s extremely brutalising that you’re going to be for sale. It’s one of the worst things you can possibly imagine. Go to any party and you see that: I just don’t think you’re worth talking to. Someone else has a bigger plus sign over their heads. Capitalism is an absolute disaster for human relations." (From The Guardian.)
Does the "I just don’t think you’re worth talking to" mean (in the above context) that the interviewee is somehow ignored, that others are reluctant to talk to her?
Thank you.
