>>2444890i used to and then there was this rapper called mackelmore from my city who made a song about thrift stores which spawned an entire wave of greedy poshmark and grailed resellers both nationally but especially locally, causing the thrift stores to all raise their prices far above retail for things like jackets with holes in them or sweatpants with visible dookie brown skid marks. the only actual way to thrift in the greater seattle area anymore is to go to the goodwill outlet unsorted bins, but i don't have time to do that for clothes and i don't like going to that part of seattle anymore because its a shithole.
can't say i totally hate the guy though. picrel.
>>2444896yes, you're preaching to the choir, this is the exactly the message i am attempting to get across to the blackpilled anon. a lot of the less ethical waste we make is unnecessary and some is to modern life. you can't get a job without a smartphone or a car unless you live in a place with public transport which means you live somewhere that by its very nature being there is a blight upon the face of the earth (major city)
so the only sane and rational way about it is minimize your impact in reasonable ways by not buying stuff you don't need, repairing things, not throwing your car away every time it hits its first major service, not buying piece of shit models in the first place, etc. my example was your average normie throws 500000x more polyester garbage from shien and zara into the trash can than your hiking gear which is a miniscule drop in the landfill.
