    no. i think the person you’re pretending to play at would have an understanding of class and materialism and you clearly, clearly do not.

      The very first comment blames capitalism for pollution but refuses to acknowledge they are lumped into that problem. I am merely trying to convince you guys that if you truly believe that capitalism is the problem, then take a stand and stop being capitalists. Revert to being a hunter gatherer for all I care. Dont pretend that this as a sort of materialist-class dynamic thing, this is a thought excercise as to why people blame capitalism for everything but cant resist to actively participate. If capitalism is the boogeyman then stop pretending that you dont love the stuff it produces.

      Its funny because I have asked this question to a ton of people who call themselves self proclaimed anticapitalists. Every single time I ever ask this question it devolves into an explanation that they are more bitter that they dont make more money, not that they hate capitalism.

      So tell me, if you actually think that this is a class thing. Class meaning you just inherently desire more material wealth to buy more and nicer things. This isnt about pollution. Nobody cares about that.
