  Any issue where the answer is “every single individual doing that just needs to do the right thing” is not a valuable take when it comes to actually fixing those systemic issues.

  Of course the problem would be solved if people all stopped doing it, we could end all war today if everyone just decided it was bad and refused, but that kind of thinking is never going to fix it

    Great point. People have too much freedom, too many options. If we restrict what they can have access to, then we can protect them. People can’t be trusted to make the right decisions for themselves. We need to reshape the system into a place where people can only expend resources as long as it benefits society. We need to test down this system of stupid predatory dolls that take advantage of people.

        Uh, no. I’m using satire to show you the flaws in your argument.
