@abouthashem: This isnt to say all “self expression” is consumerist behavior either, our system is literally built around consumption so its unavoidable. What is though, is unnecessary overconsumption especially with things that are purely there to sell you the idea of being something. Very rarely is your identity truly tied to a product

thats why u can thrift, sew, make shit. Despite the propaganda self expression is still a human need and how you present yourself is part of it

true self expression comes from when you "consume" yourself, when you wear something you created, expressing yourself not just through clothing but the act of creation

The only flaw here is not blaming the consumer. If the consumer bears no responsibility, then neither do the advertisers

So does social medias for artists!!!!!!!! I can't stress enough how much of a consumerist mentality I've adopted over the years, only caring about views my art could've gotten it's simply too sad what escape is there besides living in the woods

to a degree. i followed the extreme of this and wearing a blue hoodie + jeans for a decade made it so hard for anyone to latch on to me.

I always believed those outfits were doing too much, i'd rather worn a plain t-shirt and some jeans i'd receive the same or even a better result

The only real self-expression is any form of creation, art and caregiving.

self expression used to actually mean something other than consumerism and it’s sad to see people changing the meaning of it
