Doesn’t have to be a thing you bought. Just some thing you didn’t have but then once you did it expanded your scope of actions.
The first obvious example that comes to mind is a car. Plenty of drawbacks to prevalence of cars, but being able to go where I want when I want, and far away, is very transformative.
I’m interested in other examples of things that aren’t just useful, but that open new possibilities.
HAMAS are terrorists and a part of the New Axis of fascist dictatorships which consist of Russia, Iran, China and North Korea among other minor countries and militant groups. Free Palestine movement is their loud, but in the grand scheme of thinga inconsequential piece of propaganda. TikTok is one the main propaganda tools of the Axis. There. Got downvoted for this plenty of times. Good thing the useful idiots are just a loud minority of primarily well-off USA students who cosplay being communists without understanding a thing about communism.
started strong, and then pivoted into “students in the US who want a better life are idiots.”
What everyone seems to misunderstand, is that the form of government doesn’t matter. Whatever form it takes, it is only as good as the social safety net it provides it’s citizens. Capitalism, Communism, Socialism, whichever, it doesn’t matter. They all have the same pitfall, in that inevitably all the wealth and power is funneled to the top. The only way to make an equitable society, is to provide for one through strong social programs.
Attempting to vilify one particular style of governance is like pointing out that the foundation of the house is cracked, and blaming it on the vinyl siding.

Segmentation faultWell said.
