    “What I do sympathize with and would like to see reduced in harm is the consumerist culture that pressures people with less means into feeling like they have to have such things for fulfillment.”

    We’re saying the same exact thing. You just went on a long preachy monologue first to try to make yourself seem smarter/superior to others, while simultaneously being denigrative towards the people you’re addressing, which is the exact thing you’re preaching about not doing. Furthermore, you didn’t even reply to the right person, I’m not the one who chose to disagree with someone only to then say the exact thing they just said.

    Everyone in this thread is just repeating the same thing I said yet somehow I’m the asshole. Get a grip, people.

      The fact that you don’t understand that you’re NOT saying the same thing… is pretty sad. Not sure if it’s because you have poor reading comprehension or that you’re just so clearly emotionally invested in this that you can’t see it clearly, but either way, it’s pretty sad.

        Give him a break, he isn’t 15 yet, and we all know reading comprehension will improve after you turn 15.
