I see this meme/quote going around:

"It's OK to #resistcapitalism on an iPhone. The feudal lord who owned the pitchforks the peasants killed him with prob observed the irony too"

IMO, while fine to use an existing iPhone (or any phone), buying a new one every 1-3 years, like they want you to, and playing into bloated desires they feed you through subtle marketing, is what fuels the furnace of capitalism.

Resistance could just be relaxing and de-coupling from over-consumption where possible.

I hate that already my emails are filling up with "Black Friday Deals" from everyone - the little bookshops and continuing ed courses too. I like charity until Giving Tuesday rolls around. And, of course Cyber Monday . . .

Capitalism taints everything and so many cannot afford to ignore the deals.

Besides "not buying," any good ideas for a good replacement focus (without becoming a new empty ritual)?
