Nothing paradoxical. Creation and consumption are two opposite things. Creation requires active brainpower. Passively consuming what others have already created just devoids one's brain of the creative powers.

- slothtrop 4y agoI think this misses the point the other user probably tried to make. Yes, it can be good to bias towards taking action particularly when passive consumption is the prevailing habit. That need not take the form of creating more fodder for consumption, which can appear redundant. Absent all the niceties of modern life that deliver the means of this consumption, people in general were not full-bore creatives (I believe this is consistent even if you account for leisure time).
