People would still buy things without advertising.

  It is literally not possible to sell something without advertising it in some way. You have to let potential customers know that something is for sale. Putting a "for sale" sign in your used car by the side of the road is a form of advertising. Putting fruit in a basket in front of a store is a form of advertising. Making a sale requires some level of communication from seller to consumer that there is a product or service for sale. We call that communication "advertising".

    That's very different from a Coca Cola ad, because it doesn't actually specify who is selling what and where. That's advertising a brand, which is what I'm objecting to.

      You just said "advertising".

        You're just arguing "semantics".
