imagine if you will people buying products of multimillion dollar corporations and fighting tooth and nail over which multimillion dollar corporation is better.

Anti-consumerism is consumerism, you can't escape neoliberal hell with such flimsy ideology.
Sucking dick is straight actually.
People who post
also go out and buy next product.
Their tastes might be 10% different from the people that they consider sheep, but the system absorbs all criticism of itself into itself.
Rod Serling wrote advertisements for refrigerators and ovens, had to read ad copy for the radio all the time. No one is external to it.
This comic is a strawman. The point of mentioning a communist owning an iphone isn't that he's participating in capitalism, but that they're participating in cheap consumerism. Clearly they can't function in modern society without a phone, but they could buy a less expensive device instead of paying for the brand.
The creator of that comic would agree with me that anti-consumerism is consumerism, so you don't know what you're dealing with.
Your point is a defence of the neoliberal status quo.
It does not fricking matter whether someone is personally virtuous. The whole point of being anti-"virtue signaling" ought to be that nobody cares whether some random person is acting virtuously in the first place. It doesn't affect your life or their structural argument at all. Hypocrisy, as defined by the neoliberal, is a spook.
Despite decrying "cheap consumerism," you are still upholding the valorization of hyper-individualism that keeps consumerism afloat.
Nice schizo ramblings.
Sorry, did you need some YouTuber with an uptalk to explain it to you instead?
I have understood this, we only live to pay bills and keep the machine running. Why the frick do we continue this cycle that only benefits the top of the chain
Alw
That's how human society works. Always has and likely always will until our species goes extinct.
That's why I wanted to kill myself, and then they didn't allow it.
Not having any children now.
You could always take a one way trip to leafland
Why? they allow one to an hero legally there?
Just forget about the machine and let it intrude as little as you can. Find and focus what you enjoy, there's lifetimes of beauty in this world.
>there is beauty in this world haha
>wanna see the sea? JUST PAY FOR A FLIGHT, BOOK A HOTEL, BUY FOOD AND SHIT
>Wanna climb on top of a mountain? HAHAH YOU GONNA NEED CLOTHES AND GEAR BRO, MAYBE A GUIDE TOO
>You wanna see japan, or travel? that will be 99999 plus tax bro
No, anon.
Every region of the world has beautiful shit. You seeing yours everyday (with your attitude I doubt it.) doesn't mean the beauty isn't there to be seen. I didn't even just mean seeing nature. Beauty is everywhere, in song, in story, in experience. There is a frickton of things to do that don't require money, but I bet you scoff at them like a materialistic shit that just wants to be unhappy.
I used to be happy. then I realized humanity kills everything good and eventually, will likely kill the whole planet or at least go extinct, lmao
>but don't worry about things you can't change
I have never had a purpose in life, and I am not seeing the point in just living to work to pay bills and "make do"
Humanity doesn't have the power to kill everything, and everything dies eventually anyways. But there's always new things too. And nobody has a purpose, you don't live to work, you work to live. You find something you enjoy, and you do that. You work enough to do that thing you enjoy with the rest of your time.
Used to enjoy vidya games, now they are all shit and pozzed
Wow. You sound like one despairing little guy.
I am, my father traveled the world, saw the best it had during the 80s
Now I am here cucked by covid, a possible new war, the fricking political agendas and who the frick knows how bad it is gonna be
I hate this bullshit
Must have been an amazing man to do that without airplanes, food, and clothes.
Inflation wasn't as fricked back then, smart ass
Also we had a lot of stuff stashed as well lole
what do you mean by that?
You technically don't have to do any of that. People in the ancient world travelled without paying for flights or hotels.
How can they stop you?
Jumped and was "saved" and sent to the hospital, then had to stay in the suicide watch
Also I am now forever on watch so I don't kill myself
Not allowed to have money
Not allowed to leave the house when they are here
Not allowed to do or get close to anything dangerous enough to finish the job
What the hell.
Where there is a will, there is a way.
Without money I can't escape fast enough and get a bus or something to some place where nobody knows me, so I can proceed to assault some bank or something to be killed
Or reach a high place enough to jump again and kill myself
but I am in fact working on it
Well if you rob a bank you might not need to have a nice day since you'll have money.
I don't even have a knife, much less a gun to do it in the first place lmao
Hahah image trying to have a nice day and you get grounded.
Welcome to the machine
To discontinue the cycle you have to convince enough other people that life shouldn't be about this weird machine. That's basically impossible as the machine is all anyone still alive has ever known.
only if you pay for it, stealing is anti-consumerism
Which episode is it.
Do not question [Brand]
Consume their products
Get excited for next product
Were boomers really so racist that they had black and white TV because they couldn't stand to see any people of color??
Genshit bootlickers be like
Jannies?
You people pay your masters to do it for them
Haha imagine, right? Going up in arms when people try to buy the "enemy" corporation's product and thus you decide they become your enemy as well. Spending all day and night posting about how great your beloved company's product is, and others don't stand a chance, and they are gay, and nolife, and seething cuckolds.
Haha.
war.
war has changed
War never changes
Would be crazy, eh?
Rod Serling had the world’s biggest repressed mancrush on Hitler ever conceived. Even by fellow israeli standards, the guy thought of Hitler more than anything else in existence.
God Nintendo homosexuals are the worse. I fricking hate them, I wish we could genocide them off the board.
Literally a fricking cult over children's games, spamming lies about the PS5 to try and convince people to buy their toddler toy.
I fricking hate them. How people can defend that fricking awful company after they cancelled melee tournaments is beyond me
Imagine if you will not enjoying the act of bantering about toys and enjoying life in the clown world instead of getting mad at political bullshit
Reminder that there was an accident with a helicopter and 2 children got fricking decapitated on set
>Morrow and Le were decapitated by the helicopter's main rotor blades, while Chen was crushed to death by the helicopter's right landing skid; all three died almost instantly.

Maybe the true Twilight Zone was the friends we made along the way
>More schizo ramblings
didn't read btw
I don't remember this episode.
i do
