Yes, but while I understand what you mean and am aware that electronics have their problems too, it's still a different thing. Labubus are pure overconsumption and have no real value. Nobody is perfect, but I think it is important to point out these literal peak examples of vanity or we become even more blind and exploitable as consumers. Labubus are just one of these "next things", always something new to sell before it gets old (very fast) and the cycle continues. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was mostly joking but I still think it's silly to "vilify" labubus and people who buy them. There's some horrific stuff happening in the world and late stage capitalism has far worse problems that labubus, at the end of the day, is just something cute.
