people place too much emphasis on the word anti. maybe think of it as conscientious consumerism. You want to drink coffee well them drink fair-trade, you want to invest in stocks well then invest in ethical stocks, you want vegtables well then buy from local producers etc. etc. etc.
Adbusters try to get a particular message across by subverting/replicating the current mode and methods of the systems they want to change. Its less about reverting or creating entirely new systems but more about shifting thought within the current system to bring about change within itself.
