How come Sup Forums never talks about the real problem in the world?
Consumerism & Debt
That's actually something you can change completely in your own life.
Instead you read and write and bitch about other topics where you are completely helpless as an individual, especially since you mostly are armchair activists bitching about other men fucking your women or other religions invading your nations most of the day: something you can't fix from your keyboard.
Because it's not a bad thing per se that people love shopping for things. People have always loved shopping, hence why there have always been marketplaces and merchants, it's just that nowadays with more money, people have the capacity to shop more. I know people have the tendency to buy stupid shit they are not gonna use, but I don't blame this on people, but rather the governments who cheer at the notion of outsourcing jobs and pursuing (((free market))).
this is the basis of anarchy and communism
You don't need 10 jeans and 20 shirts and 30 shoes and 50 dvds.
You don't NEED a new phone every year.
We just don't need 95% of the shit we own and consumerism is cuckism of the mind and enslavement of the wallet and your personal freedom.
It also destroys the planet.
Moderate consumerism , which is fine, doesn't exist anymore.
Can you list your material possessions?
Let's do an experiment.
I know. I for example have an old cracked-screen smartphone that I have been using for 5 years, and even though I have enough money to buy a new one, I don't want to, because if I can call with it, browse google maps and send/receive text messages, why should I?
I agree with you, just so that you know, but I wanna emphasize to you that people love to buy shit just because they can, to signal to others that they are successful. Consumerism is largely a product of free-market capitalism. People get a release of endorphins out of shopping and buying new shit, it's more of a pleasurable pasttime than about acquiring new objects.
There is literally only one way to make consumerism go away, and this is instilling into society strong values that overwrite (((individualism))) such as strong sense of national identity. That way, people stop virtue signalling with bought items and instead virtue signal by showing how far are they willing to go to honour their culture and national identity. The average Joe would not impress neighbors by buying a new car more expensive than theirs, but perhaps carve a wood sculpture, build a lovely traditional wooden home, grow a nice garden that looks easy on the eyes, or even act as a pillar of community by starting different clubs/societies aimed at developing the community by giving people with certain interests within a community a chance to gather and socialize, thus further strengthening ties within the community.
Until this doesn't happen, in a (((free-market))) economy you will still hear your average Joe trying to impress other Joes by stating how much Staceys they have fucked last week or how they bought a new BMW.
The momentarily endorphin surge people get from consuming is an addiction and false happiness like many others in today's society.
Spot on the rest of your words.
Individualism, egoism, showing off and consumerism is another method of breaking society , that's why i wonder how come no one ever discusses it here, The cuckery is getting a bit old and the fundamental goal is the same.
There will always be someone with a car more expensive.
The comparison race is s a meaningless race. Orchestrated perfectly by the people in charge.
>Consumerism & Debt
No one is forcing them to buy stuff and go into debt. It's not a world wide problem because of a few idiots who can't save their money
Probably these issues are less discussed here since consumerism (at least, for me) seems to be a symptom, not a root cause, and the root cause, which Sup Forums often talks about too, is globalism and cultural marxism, which often has connections with jews, but many times it's also white people shilling other white people.
To give you some hope, I have observed how people who become redpilled on Sup Forums by proxy stop participating in mindless consumerism without anybody explicitly calling out consumerism for them. I guess if your perspective on the world changes, it also changes your habits without you consciously noticing.
>No one is forcing them to buy stuff
Thats because people buy stuff with money they don´t have to impress people they don´t know. Its the root of consumerism and the necessary function of a capitalistic society. Its exploitation of human psychology and nature. We´re consuming ourselves to death for our slavemasters. Everything has to be a short ruse for a higly satured free market to keep growing.
>Its exploitation of human psychology and nature.
No it's the exploitation of idiots. A normal person can and will budget their money
