#RightToRepair will become an absolute necessity in the near future. Having all the supply chain completely fucked up and prices all over increasing like never before, people will need to learn how to do stuff themselves instead of pulling a credit card.

Confused about the thoughts part. "Thoughts are sustainable" isn't what is written on the poster.

Seems rather masturbatory rather than actually trying to dispense any information

in reply to Gold-Tinged Excrement • • •I would not expect "proof" on a poster given that there is very limited space available.
But I would be interested if you could give information on misleading information and/or proposals on how to change it to be less "masturbatory"...

This is what I meant with the thought of repairing stuff. It *should* be an option, you *should* consider it, you *should* be able/allowed to do it.

Even more sustainable would be more or less to stop existing and consuming at all
