that's exactly the problem... why the fascination with "money" and "big"?

The world has real problems... called environmental collapse and climate change. Why not working on those

It's actually EASY to make money selling shit. It's HARD to solve a real problem to make everyone's lives better



I don’t disagree, but surely it’s even easier to bemoan that other people aren’t doing enough of the right things than it is to devote one’s own life to those kinds of problems.


it wasn't my point, my point was that we culturally celebrate "earning a lot of money" as "success" even though when you look carefully you see that they simply are ruining the planet... that's stupid and it should stop


I am as far from a fan as you can get. But calling it shit just demonstrates how little people understand, not how refined their tastes are. It reflects poorly on you guys.


"I spent 24h in Ketchup" is "refined taste" ?
