I saw that people are buying $150 or $250 sockbags for their iphone. They also are buying $30 glass cups from Starbucks. Can people accept that the customer is a major part of the problem?

Capitalism’s rebranding as “consumerism” is reducing people to that one thing they do in order to not starve to death. Capital is a collectivist term (so disliked by the hegemon), while consumer is by nature very individualistic, like CO2 footprint and similar propaganda language.
Are… are you high? “Consumerism” and “capitalism” are completely different terms, used in completely different contexts. And I have never once heard someone use “consumerism” in a positive light. This is conspiracy bullshit
It’s not positive, that’s right. It’s a way to shift the blame away from the owning class.
