I thought I was following their train of thought in the top comment, but I don’t know what happened after that.
The Man can’t stop me from drummin’ on mah belly!
Yeah, was like “mhm, consumerism is bad, okay yes” to suddenly “what???”
Any insane social media is fine here.
Funny, I just told this story on a forum elsewhere and this totally reminds me of it:
As an activitst youth in the 1990s, I was in our what was, in retrospect, very silly Bloomington Peace and Justice Center and someone I knew was eating granola out of a bag and offered me some. I tried it and it tasted like soap, so I spat it out.
I told him that and he said, “I found it in a dumpster, so I washed it before I ate it.”
Bear in mind that this wasn’t a guy that had any reason to be eating out of dumpsters. He was either a college student or a college dropout, probably the latter. This was a “I’m not participating in society, man!” sort of thing.
