I've been noticing this more and more, there's an insistence that pointed economic or environmental criticisms of some consumption habit, usually almost exclusively partaken by the upper middle class and wealthier people, must actually secretly be a purely cultural critique. I'm sure these guys work for Exxon or some shit, lmao.

we should all have more vacation than that and then maybe wind power cruise ships would be viable.
we can have nice things, remember not having enough nice things is part of why regular people in communist countries were susceptible to western consumerist propaganda
