minus-squarekarashta@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up39arrow-down4·7 months agoI’ve seen this and known the end was coming since I was a teenager 25 years ago. Who care about consumer spending when I’ve been watching the current biosphere die off for my whole adult life? I’m supposed to save for a future in a society that’s pretty obviously collapsing as the biosphere deteriorates? I don’t have zero hope for the future but the idea that this current infinite expansion system can continue is obviously wrong.
