Too many br*nds at the grocery store, I can’t decide, why do we need 14 br*nds of laundry detergent? Destroying br*nds is essential for the revolution.

There will be one br*nd of soup. One br*nd of soap. One br*nd of orange juice.

staring at the thousand and one brands of ass wipe tissue on the endless wall of disposable paper products, questioning the need for five different package size options per brand, with near infinite variations of extra-soft multi-ply double-count percentage-extra-free limited-seasonal-edition…

Buy a washlet seat for your toilet and set yourself free comrade.

plus your bum will be so clean. I hate using paper now. Feels so unhygienic.

Nationalizing Amazon and using their infrastructure to have a giant “order shit” superstore online is the dream. Imagine just being able to request toilet paper or shampoo or basically any non-perishable and you just press a button and the government just delivers it to you, free. Just do some sort of check system to stop people from buying a million rolls all at once, and you’re good.

Amazon proves that Central Planning works extremely well and is very cool. Thanks Jeff, we’ll take it from here

There would have to be a coming to God moment where the public consciousness metabolizes that there’s 100,000 private labels all ordering the same cheap plastic shit from 4 or 5 Chinese mega-factories and how profoundly those laborers are exploited.

As some with autism, I find supermarkets so over stimulating. I don’t need every peice of packaging screaming for my attention.

Sometimes I get anxiety as I stare at all the options trying to figure out how the 24 different kinds of toothpastes are different and which one is worth the money. Not to mention the fact im in the same aisle for like 10 minutes comparing active ingredients

Yep I feel this. I’ve gotten into a decent routine with grocery shopping because I just buy the same food every time and only have to freak out and figure shit out occasionally when I need a non-food item.

As long as there are still different “types” (e.g. unscented, allergy free, etc. for laundry soap) I’m game. It would make shopping a lot easier, and would have helped immensely with the whole lockdown thing. Instead of ordering “I need two packs of land o lakes butter, a gallon of deans 2% milk, six cans of Progresso clam chowder…etc etc” it would just be I need 2 lbs of butter, a gallon of 2% milk, and 6 cans of clam chowder. Hell, that shit could be damn near automated at that point. Everyone gets essentials with a list of options for things that need choice (flavors, scents, allergens).

That’s why I’m a seinfeld/leninist, I just don’t get what the deal is with all these brands providing the illusion of freedom in my society. Who are these people?

Alternatively I like 150 different brands of locally produced cheeses.

Shouldn’t production be as descentralized as possible/efficient ?

I feel like artisanal products are different. When I want cheese, beer or a liquor or something the options are nice. But I have no clue what kind of toilet paper is at my house right now. I have a ton of different cleaners at my house and I know one is good for tile but I don’t know the brand or really care.
