Capitalism produces ecological crisis for the same reason it produces inequality: because the fundamental mechanism of capitalist growth is that capital must extract (from nature and labour) more than it gives in return.

Great piece from @voguebusiness on the rise of Gen-Z in China.

Key takeouts:
- average spend on fashion was $6800 in 2020
- many are critical of celebrity culture
- Western labels are no longer 1st choice
- meticulous in their research on brands' heritage

Growth in the global North relies on massive net appropriation of labour and resources from the global South. Calls for more Northern growth that do not explicitly address this fact are in effect calls to intensify and expand imperialism. It's as simple as that.

Desperate from @JohnLewisRetail. Expect a short-term spike in sales to be offset by irreperable brand damage.

With governance like this it won't be long before an historic brand ends up closing its doors.

@SophieBenson_ @JohnLewisRetail Wow - what a blinkered decision that is. Stinks of desperation
