Starting to think a significant portion of rich people genuinely view suffering as an essential if not occult component to the value of their products. Like it means more to them when a thing suffers or dies to produce what they have.
diamond rings come to mind, i dont know why some people have a bone to pick with lab-grown diamonds, does the horrible labor behind mining make the “real thing” better?
Too many people have the mentality of “If I suffered, you should to”, or equate their value to their suffering “Suffering builds character”, “You only slept 6 hours? Try 4 like me”.
Humanity has an unhealthy obsession with suffering equating validation.
Yes. Hearing about how pre colonial Hawaiians worked like 9-12am and were so efficient they could spend the rest of the day playing, makes me deeply sad to see how far we’ve regressed.

Same. To some, yes.
Not just products but life as a whole.
