All one needs to ask is, "Is this really useful? How? Why do I perceive need of it? Can the same objectives be reached without it?"

The simple answer to the majority of things these days we THINK we need, is yes. People have been trained to be consumers, regardless of it's true impact on their lives; to want it because someone else does and fear of being ridiculed or losing bragging rights, not because they actually NEED it.

Cellphones are a perfect example: Sure they're convenient, have a lot of crap on them to distract us, but that's rather the point of their creation by those who would keep Humanity cowed and stupid, is it not?🧐

Your points on the enviro-nazi bullshit, are likewise on target. None of it is needed. Global Warming by Humans is fiction. It is but a means to bilk people out of hard earned money and lower their well-being for a matrix of delusion and fantasy.
