How can libertarians uphold that the free market is perfect and the be-all end-all, when you have shit like multimillion dollar add campaigns that trick people into buying shitty products? For example, Apple products.

Economically speaking, the free market will always favor whoever has the biggest ad campaign, not the best product. Ergo, the free market DOESN'T work. QED

lolbertarianism, like communism, only works when the population is high iq and high trusting. in low trust and low iq societies (most of the world is one or both of these things) only benevolent dictators can keep society together

Apple unironically makes a desirable product and doesn’t need to advertise.

actually the free market is racist

Go back to econ 101. The free market is the best pricing mechanism we have. No other method works for complex modern economies. The best argument against the freemarket is that leverage, interest, and derivatives can stop it from reaching equilibrium thus mispricing certain things.

How convenient must it be for multimillion dollar corporations for the "best pricing mechanism we have" to be sooooo susceptible and easy to manipulate in their favor with lobbying and advertising. Honestly, they must be livid. How lucky!!! Incredible coincidence.
