[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The most valid critiques of capitalism is rampant consumerism leading to waste and excess driven by creating false needs that have to be fulfilled. She even wrote a book about it. This rampant consumerism is now largely driven by online influencers. Jen doesn't see that she, and those like her, are the problem! But she wants to teach us.[/quote] I'm not denying there are potentially legitimate criticisms of capitalism, just that bashing it has become another lazy progressive shibboleth and virtue signal performed by people who have little understanding of how they have benefitted from it and what any genuine workable (as opposed to utopian) alternatives to it there might be. They're filled with righteous certainty but lacking in depth of understanding. [/quote]
