Our Greatest Dilemma as a Species: Consumerism | HackerNoon
Briefly

"Consumerism has mutated from a survival strategy to a global economic religion. It drives our financial systems, creates jobs, and has become the bloodstream of modern civilization."
"The documentary wasn't just a film-it was a stark anatomical dissection of our collective madness. Each frame revealed how corporations have transformed consumption from a need to an addiction, creating artificial desires that serve nothing but the perpetual machine of economic growth."
"Climate change initiatives are a smokescreen, a collective delusion that distracts us from the real problem. We're treating symptoms while the disease-unbridled consumerism-continues to metastasize."
"The truth is uncomfortable: our current trajectory leads to oblivion. Every unnecessary purchase is a nail in humanity's coffin. Each mindless acquisition contributes to environmental degradation, resource depletion, and the systematic destruction of our planet's delicate ecosystems."
