  • The sad truth is that most people don’t care either. They say they do, but don’t act on it. Barely anyone stopped flying to their yearly vacation, barely anyone reduced their meat and dairy consumption, an increasing amount of people are wearing fast throwaway fashion. If the governments implemented the drastic measures we need they would be hanged by an angry mob of morons who won’t understand the dire situation until they die of a heatstroke.



  • Thanks for taking the time to explain all that. I’m still lost though. How the hell is the inflation, that I and all my friends and family are experiencing, 10 times higher than the national average? Like, all our rents got bumped up even without moving, supposedly due to energy prices surging. This is obviously a rethorical question, that I don’t expect you to answer.


  • Can someone explain those numbers to me, because I’m honestly lost. Is this article suggesting that prices in july 24 were 2.3% higher than in july 23? If yes, what are they measuring exactly? I just know that groceries and rent jumped about 20% compared to last year. Did some other stuff that I have no connection to get significantly cheaper? Do I live in the inflation capital of germany? What am I missing here?
