@ai6yr@va3wft As a kid I watched a very famous anime called Robotech. The main enemies were the Zentraedi, a race of genetically-engineered warriors who could only fight but not fix anything. A cautionary tale. I just now realized that 40 years later, we're them. 🫠
From the article: "The fact that we’re repairing our clothes in a highly capitalist society is radical. It’s radical to fix something versus throwing it away and buying something new"
