The worst part about Trump not being president is how disengaged everyone will now become. Irs sickening.

        /r/consoom was a fash community who bitched about the consumerist culture we live in, but unsurprisingly blamed it on an elite Jewish conspiracy.

        I just like when the left co-opts it, because consumerism is a fuck

          "Anti-Consumerism" is just watered down Anti-Capitalism for Gen-Xers lacking real class consciousness. The problem isn't pop radio or having 10 different kinds of potato chips, it's the capitalist mode of production.

            THANK you, more people need to say this shit. I swear like a solid 75% of internet 'leftists' just wanna feel morally superior for not liking marvel movies.

            “Anti-Consumerism” is just watered down Anti-Capitalism

            If you try to solve the contradictions of capitalism by blaming regular working class people who are just trying to survive, you're a fascist
