So you go to work, earn money, then you buy yourself some object to put it in a shelf?
And thats basically it?
You are not even playing it?
To do what with it? Letting your kids/family sell your collection with a loss?
Is it background decoration for you? Couldn't you just buy bulk of Vinyl no one wants to use it for your decoration purposes?
That feels like consumerism at the peak.
- bigmadshoe 9mo agoIs it consumerism to walk around the beach collecting pretty rocks to go home and put them on a shelf?
- Alconicon 9mo agoA rock is not a consumer good, so no. And a rock is unique, nice to look at, did not cost you anything and kind of an appreciation of nature. Enjoy your rock! (i'm sincere)
- bigmadshoe 9mo agoNaturally since people are buying things, technically they are consuming. I mean that collecting a relatively small number of durable and visually pleasing objects isn't really the worst flavor of consumerism, even if it seems pointless to some people. I agree we have a massive problem with over-consumption (most glaringly with things like fast fashion), but I'm not sure record collectors are a big problem.
