i get into internet arguments about showering specifically so i can critically examine my own opinions. but you bring up durian as an example. you would expect that if it were as routine as you say, the people most exposed to it would be happy to marinate in durian smells. i can’t find a single airline anywhere in the world that will allow you to eat durian during the flight. yes, there are sociopolitical implications, but unsealed durians are prohibited on singaporean transit. how, then, could it be as simple as “routine conditioning”?
first off, it’s not a private company. it’s (more or less) every airline and metro, public or private. secondly, so what? capital isn’t a black box that takes any input and returns the most evil output. it acts according to laws that can be understood and studied. what particular law of capital produced the result in question?

Great job overfocusing on Durians and bringing up private airline policy instead of responding to the idea of social conditioning of smell
ok well that was my response to the idea of social conditioning of smell
A private company’s policy during capitalism?
