Consumerism nowadays is creating a fake culture, which promises happiness for people by a price. However, there is no eternal happiness in such a world because the happiness itself is defined by the rapid changing market and not by ourselves. The way we can fight against this trend is to eliminate the attached marketing values, which are usually the logo and labels, and bring the meaning of products back to the purely practical side.
In the context of contemporary consumerism, commercialization takes place beyond physical products. Our religion, literature, education, and even the art itself can be served for business benefit. The question is, can they still maintain their original purpose even after they are commercialized?
