Demand Destruction may the the deciding economic factor in the months to come.
Wall St thinks it can motivate people to continue with consumerist capitalism.
I don't know about you, but there's no marketing campaign good enough to make me or most people buy fast fashion, dumb entertainment, or useless plastic junk when food security, medicines, and keeping the power on will be our overwhelming concerns.

"Ireland's dependence on fossil fuels in transport is leaving the country exposed to repeated fuel price shocks as global energy markets remain disrupted, the Climate Change Advisory Council (CCAC) has warned.
Accelerated investment in public transport, active travel, electric vehicle charging infrastructure and grid capacity would reduce this exposure, the council said in the transport chapter of its 2026 Annual Review."

Heat pump sales jump as consumers recoil at high fossil fuel prices
"High demand for units in Europe suggests green technologies benefiting from energy price surge due to Iran war."
https://www.ft.com/content/571e9cc4-1b32-49ef-bc82-e550e9404d8f?
Once those heat pumps are installed, they stay, even after oil and gas flows through the Strait of Hormuz resume.

“I hate how grocery shopping has become an exhausting exercise in NOT get ripped off” - a headline from r/anticonsumption - What with #inflation and #Shrinkflation the #affordability crisis is only getting worse; while the industry is making record profits, except for #farmers - who are suffering even though subsidized. From my POV, most if not all consumer products producers have turned predatory over the last decade or so. And that’s including the packaged food, dairy and produce industries. This has to be final-stage #capitalism - when unrestrained and unregulated industry giants are preying on the consumers who fund their enterprises. There is a solution, an effective resistance to this trend…it is called #DemandDestruction - that is when fed-up consumers simply refuse to spend, resist corporate exploitation, and vote with their wallets. It’s hard, and takes planning & organization, but it IS doable. To fight back, avoid Amazon & big box stores. Buy from farmer’s markets, support local biz & vote blue.

Dr Emma Salisbury is a navy expert.
She "just finished up doing media for today, here's a summary:
- Uranium plan bad
- Kharg plan bad
- Blockade plan bad
- AWACS loss yikes
- Leaving Iran control of the Strait is a strategic defeat
- Even if US stops, Israel/Iran won't
- Everything is astronomically dumb
- All-encompassing yikes"[via Bluesky]
