I don’t have spare money to spend on a Vision Pro that I couldn’t spend somewhere better but I have this thought when I was taking a hot shower. I’m here just living normally while there are millions running for their lives from war zones like literally.

I’m more worried about the multibillionaires than anyone else, glass hole or not.

capitalism and consumption is all about escapism. escaping from the mundane (and horrific) realities of life. seek fulfilment in material pleasures and distract from real world issues and concerns.

this device literally commodifies our personal experiences. its a branded and status-driven consumerist invasion of our inner space. even further cutting us off from reality.
