I'm screaming this every day, and lemmy is especially ridiculous given our views on capitalism.
In a thread about fast food prices last year, I was told I was privileged for suggesting that, "maybe stop buying their shit?"
If every American had my wife and I's spending habits, the economy would collapse in 3-4 months.
People will agree amazon is evil and needs to have less power but say it's too convenient and cheap. They'll say apple is too powerful while buying every new iPhone. I watch people who say I'm privileged spend more money than I do on everything from food to entertainment. Most people really don't care about enacting their principles, if it means giving up anything or spending 2 minutes of effort. Is what it is I guess.
This is learned/programmed helplessness.
spending your $ consciously is literally the only way to fix this beast, the entire system is designed towards extracting it...therefor the only way to stress the system is to give your $ to (good) local/private businesses whenever possible.
Exactly. Quiet quitting was a step in the right direction. What we need is a quiet strike. Take back our will from corporations, from food prep to social media/dating apps. Their hold is pervasive and destructive to the social fabric in almost every instance at this point. The key problem in the "free world" is that people have placed their faith in corporations and religious organizations and have learned to fear their neighbor by default, which is entirely backwards to a healthy society and hands all the power to the top.
