I hate the word ‘Consumer’ or I mockingly call it ‘CONSOOMER’. Because that’s to imply everyone in the world is just cattle, but with wallets. We’re no longer customers. We’re consumers now. And a consumer’s purpose is to consume shit, whatever is put out there. Got money? Shut up and consume, it’s what corporate interests and capitalism itself thrive on. Consume and consume.

    those don’t really address the part where I can see how it’s getting shortened.

        It’s just unrealistic to think people won’t shorten it.

        I will, sure, but the public at large won’t. So your answer just doesn’t address my question, is all.
