    You claim slavery is bad, yet you wear clothes. Curious.

    It's almost as if there's no ethical consumption under capitalism.

    Okay but I don't really do any of those things? I ride a bike, exclusively buy secondhand clothes and tech, and don't eat chocolate. Maybe you do, but don't put that shit on me Reddit boi.

      People who criticize capitalism and live imperfect lifestyles are hypocritical.

      People who criticize capitalism and live near perfect lifestyles (at least when it comes to not participating in consumerism) are unreasonable moralising evangelists.

    Babe, you're so close to understanding Commodity Fetishism.

    Now you just need to understand that the solution isn't in individual consumer choice, but to transcend Capitalism.

      Or has everyone seen it? I mean, I know it's over, but I think a lot of people haven't seen it and most of them should.
