    I've seen some videos of Costco brawls between gen z men over Pokemon cards they want to flip. Surely the bar can't get lower then that

    I think, unfortunately, we are being lead by grifters creating a society of grifters i.e. the future generation is learning the lesson that the way to get ahead is by grifting.

    I know this is gonna sound dramatic but if it keeps going? We're looking at apocalyptic outcomes for the future of civilization.

    So basically how it always was?

    There's a reason why there are billionaires...

    But yeah it's likely getting worse, like an elite and otherwise brain-dead propaganda following society (to exaggerate a little bit...). Initially after reading Adorno years ago, I never thought that the rather negative way he wrote, and something like the third Reich will not happen again, yet here we are repeating mistakes, fueled by accelerating climate-change (and the resulting conflicts)...

    We are leaving (or rather have left) the most peaceful era of humanity, back to smashing each others heads without a real reason, leaving a more positive holistic utopian future... Sad.

    i think thats a different situation, some people are greedy and think they can make money flipping cards which is pretty mucha problem with TCPi/TCPJ but they have very little incentive to fix that issue, MTG unintentionally remediated that issue by pushing out UB sets multiple times a year more than normal, essentially making older sets useless/or less useful as you have to keep buying the new sets to keep up. this is about people inability to think for themselves.
