Sicily - which has already been brought to its knees by a prolonged heatwave - is battling wildfires that are threatening towns and cities across the island.
For warmth and necessary industry and energy, not for crap the capitalists propagandize we need or need to be jealous of. You need a home and commons(transportation of some kind for people and utilities) and food, you dont need beanie babies, pop figues, and for everyone to have their own polluting car instead of having societal investment in quality public transit almost eveyone uses. Socialists also don't encourage replacing everything every 6 months and making things to break/planned obsolescence to encourage needless consumption literally for the sake of consumption.
The capitalist lifestyle is unsustainable because it relies on infinite growth on a finite world we are burning to sustain.
Lol it's adorable that you think people liking having shit is due to capitalism.
I'm very curious to hear what you think capitalism means.
Consumer mindset and thinking of people first and foremost is brought to you by capitalism.
We're not consumers, we're people. Social animals that enjoy living in groups. Owning shit isn't something that makes us inherently happy. Just look at how other apes live. Just think about the things that make you happy.
Endless consumption is a blight. It's killing our habitat. It's killing us.
