30 Times The ‘Anticonsumption’ Group Showed What’s Wrong With The World (New Pics)

Ohhh this is far too accurate.

This 'minority' word, interestingly, it's being described for demographics that are becoming the majority. We have, in my city at least, a heavy population of Filipinos and East Indians, I would say they are the majority demographic, now. (Nothing wrong with that.btw.) There are actually way more "minorities" than what is perceived as the "majorities" is what I'm trying to say. Diversity is here, and I don't think it needs to be pushed anymore than it is. If anything, we need to protect diversity for the sake of equity, and update our long-outdated terminology. - I really went down a rabbit hole.

It's a system that people are afraid to change because they are afraid of change.

That would include slimy rental managements. ... Imagine a landlord having to actually maintain the apartment block they own.

I think these will be more widespread in the next 5 years.

Imagine if all of them donated 10% to every charity and non-profit in the world.

Stfu. I'm so seen 😭

hold on, that's actually genius!

What would be a bigger boost to the economy? More tax cuts for the rich or a dollar an hour raise to all walmart and amazon workers?

If it's affordable that's a neat idea

I love this!!! I decided this year to simplify my life... once my family and I move in April we are going to do a major purge and lighten our life. I am tired of being burdened by stuff!!!!

Love homemade gifts.

What? Why even post this if you are blanking words out of it?

Me, too. It's just a cup. They're huge for what you need. A burden to tote around. I can get something like that, smaller, for way less. No thanks.

They all peed but accusing him, the non pee'er

I ain't washing less. Sorry but no. Stinky bejeaned wierdos.

AI can be fantastic, if used for tasks that humans cannot accomplish. For instance, ML models can be used to improve the efficiency of machines by making micro adjustments far faster than a human could make. In a factory setting, this could save energy and carbon, and reduce waste. These models give existing workers better tools, rather than replacing them. But the AI companies that get the investments are the ones that are replacing humans for creative tasks.

Same with art. Michaels is my weakness. The only thing keeping me restrained when I'm in there is the price of everything.

Thought I should do the math. 80.000 years * 365,25 days is 29.220.000 days * $10.000 is $292,2 billion. Musk's current estimated wealth is about $390 billion. Damn

Same in the EU.

No, I like having things, especially now. You never know how expensive they’ll be in the near future with the idiot and his oligarch in charge.

When I bought my last car the dealership had applied a semi-permanent sticker of their dealership name on it. I peeled that off first thing. I'm not free advertising for your dealership. YOU pay to advertise your dealership, not me.

Coals to Newcastle!!!

I do this with bars of soap 😆

The whole world is noticing. Is there any country not on Trump's radar?

They read it as "No! More plastic!"

This is why I don't get excited about sales.

Much of it is c**p and tossed.

Guarantee they are awaiting recycling to be made into roads and whatnot

Eat the food in your kitchen before you go back to the store.

I actually want to watch this. Is this available on Amazon Prime? nvm I can check.

Yeah, that's cool but who has scraps like that?

I've grown to hate Christmas decor and halloween c**p.

Stop spending and breeding indiscriminately

That is one well used hammer!

Marie Antoinette was dragged in the media and so much misinformation was spread. She never said "Let them eat cake".

The problem with consumerism, is that it's predicated on a continuous feeling of dissatisfaction. If we're satisfied, we stop consuming

I have to own all my books because I tend to write in them and highlight in them. That said, I have a tiny library in my front yard.

Confused. A bus shack provides a real use. Except for the ones in Winnipeg, where all the windows are smashed and everyone's huddled in one corner.

This is how it used to be done.

The kid will be bored by the afternoon and playing with the boxes everything came in.

It's a hard sell on companies to make their toys less enticing for kids. But I do agree. So much disappointment when finding out much of the "features" that made the toy appealing and fun was all in the packaging.

A bad thing about Aluminium, glass, and other metals are the heat required for melting it and the weight?

You can also wash most sponges where I'm from. They get less pretty but still work for a few rounds.

Good leather. Wouldn't work on fake leather.

That's what I have been doing for decades.

I just don't know how you would clean the cup in a public washroom that has no sink in the stall, or when you would know when to take it out.

huuuuuuh???? whaaaat???? that's al so FAST

I could imagine that this is why people responded to positively. Just for ONCE it was the "upper class" that suffered, instead of those at the bottom. Was it right? No. Is it right that the weakest in society are being kicked in the nuts all the time? Also no. If anything, it shows why equality is important not just for those at the bottom.

Should be much higher!

I'd happily take these, especially the chonkers one on the bottom right. Is it a potato? A bean bag? A rhinoceros butt? Ooo, the excitement is killing me.

How thick are the soles for this to work? Here in Britain soles are so thin that you'd absolutely put a hole in them. Great idea, anyway!

This is how our holidays have been looking. It looks sad, at first, but when you experience a light, unpressured Christmas you'll realize how much more enjoyable the holidays can be.

Well, those look ideal for some a*ses who could use a good, painful kick. If you don't already have a list, just contact me, I have an ever-growing one /s

I'm in my 40s and I'm still figuring it all out. I've also come to realize I don't want to be a manager.

Trade war. Land war... Your president really likes war.

I hate paper straws, but we are getting on without plastic straws. Your president is really ....... backwards.

I've been having many of those days.

How did you get that paint off?

Really???

This is cool.

Okay, so renting is pretty normal in Germany. What you want are solid laws that protect renter and landlord. And then it works. Admittedly, in the current political climate I wouldn't hope for any government (at least in the UK or USA) to make any legislation that would put restrictions on rich people (f**k you, Starmer)

Didn't they get dragged through the mud by Salvation Army?

Here is the after picture, found on the original Reddit post... restored-a...610087.jpg
