The "power" of your consumer choice is a consolation within a life of servitude anyway though right?

Like even if the author is totally wrong, that "actually all our products are actually much better thank you, good thing we don't live 50 years ago!" Is that something we can truly be happy about? Is that winning? You too, im sure, feel that itchy emptiness when you have received all your products, when all the plastics has been peeled off and the software has been updated.

This is not a battle you even want to win! The power you are defending is already second-hand, is just a sedative. You can want more.
