Why The Quality Of Everything Is F*cking Trash Now (www.youtube.com)

Your toaster dies the second you unbox it. Pants rip on day one. The quality of everything is trash now. This is what bigheaded people call enshittification. Companies deliberately design products to break right after the warranty. This is due to the so-called “Hunt for Infinite growth.” Steady profits ain’t enough. They need MORE, so they skimp, shrink packages, and shove everything behind subscriptions. Infinite growth is a plague, and it hurts your personal finance.

Yea well, they are trying to hide how badly our money has deflated. Can’t buy cotton clothing only plastic. Can’t buy real chicken only chicken that went through a chemical wash.

In fact you can buy both cotton clothing and air-chilled chicken. Those are two things I focus on buying. And not because the chlorine level in water-cooled chicken is dangerous, it's because the water retention prevents better browning.
