this is so true, most ppl are way too obcessed with asthetics and its so sad how most of them started out as having ideology behind them and now its just about overconsumption, it really is sad. i dont think the problem is in the words tho, cuz like i know a lot of ppl who dont have any specific asthetic that still overconsume, i think its more about how ppl are addicted to the dopamine hit they get from shoping and how many ppl dont have a long term sense of joy that they can get from like achievements or inner peace and stuff like that so they rely on cheep bursts of joy they feel from getting something new. Anyway thanks for the blog post. |
TOTALLY u bring up a rlly good point. I hate the terms more in a way that it makes this consumption seem like a necessity to βbelongβ in a way which does in turn increase useless consumption of garbage.
i think at least spreading how predatory these terms are can at least make more people realize that consumption and branding for identity is NOT normal

oh yes in that sense i completely agree, u bring up a good point of how ppl think they need to fit a certain asthetic in order to belong cuz a sense of belonging would give them seretonin which a more stable form of joy that doesn't lead to addiction unline dopanime. and yes i think starting conversations about these terms is really important in helping ppl realize the problematic nature of overconsumption. thanks for what u do :)
