From violations of privacy, to the mainpulation or even maliciousness at its core, I think marketing at it’s current state is poison to society. But I also think it might be a necessary evil. What would be a good alternative implementation of advertising look like? Or do we even need it? If the former, how would advertising look in a non-capitalist society?

Hi @bear_delune, we’d like to avoid these kinds of low-effort comments in !politics when possible. Please make an effort to contribute to the discussion more when commenting in the future.

Out of curiosity, do you think Lemmy would benefit from letting users tag their own comments as shit posts and then let other users filter accordingly?
