Reading this, I almost lost it!

It actually angers me to see that we actually made „shop till we drop“ our common societal fetish.

Spending money faster than last year, usually on mindless consumption, aka « growing the GDP », is a concept I am being more and more alienated by.

I really consider abstaining. Haven’t quite figured out my way to do just that.

Wenn ich Reiche sehe, denke ich an Jurassic World. Die Wiedergeburt. Mit Vin Diesel und Kathy Gas.
@AwetTesfaiesus I bet she's doing this with full consent of Merz, her boss in fossil fuels. We need to sue. She mustn't go on like this.
