Yeah, and who's fueling said global economy? Regular people browsing Shein ordering ridiculous amounts of plastic-wrapped shit priced at ridiculously low levels.

Sure, yes, average people play their part in the global economy. But I think the infinite growth mentality is a big part of it too, which again, falls solely on the CEOs.

Ultimately I do agree with your overall assessment, things do feel kinda hopeless right now, because it just doesn't seem like very many people in a position to make a difference are really doing anything.
