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?

Maybe, yeah. Not seeing everything through rose tinted glasses has made me realize how much I hate the current, greedy world. However I'm also very misinformed on other non-capitalist systems so I don't think I can contribute much to that at the moment.
