though i entirely agree, i've been pondering the contrast lately;
someone can devote a lot of their time and effort on the front lines of a cause
yet
someone can alternatively devote a lot of their earnings towards whichever cause
LeBron definitely falls in the 2nd category
bring back NBA Cares, need to humble the pros and remind them without down syndrome andy and his fams consumerism, they wouldnt live like kings
There is a lot of pluses of consumerism, you get a lot of cool shit every year. There is a lot of negatives tho, debt, depression, unstable society etc.
But I mean. Cool shit tho.. lol realistically there is a balance there that can be struck, mostly amongst yourself & not the at the feet of the entire system. Guess it tilt depending on the masses trends since it’s a biologically reflective system imo. Economic systems per say, they reflect the composition of the entire human population under its control. Even when it’s by force there is typically a catastrophic even that reshapes it when it’s not reflective enough.
NBA Players are just a function of what we value the most at the moment, entertainment, so we pay them absolutely insane amount of money for entertaining insanely huge masses.
