How is consumption not meaningful?
- vouaobrasil 2y agoIt is meaningful but it is often pushed to artificial extremes and used to replace more meaningful things that we once had.

- harimau777 2y agoI think that they are talking specifically about conspicuous consumption. That is: consuming things just to display to society that you have the resources to consume them.
