remusnoc - A nacirema monster

 `The remunsnoc is a monster of great mystery. It's often said that anybody can embody the remunsoc but very few are able to actually succeed. Often, it's the great kings and elite that actually have the steady supply of money necessary to feed becoming a remusnoc. The sin of gluttony encompasses these people who become monsters as they engorge themselves on fancy water bottles, body scrubs and 10,000 step body rituals meant to erode any physical imperfections. But these monsters aren't just victims of their own greed but rather also victims of a system that encourages them to consume, consume and consume until their "flaws" are all gone. Marketing schemes grind and spit these people out: victims of their lack of being able to tell between a want or need. The remusnoc believes that the key to happiness lies in another $9.99 vanilla body scrub made from the hands of foreign children in foreign countries. You see the remusnoc isn't a monster due to its greed for luxury goods no it becomes a monster the first time it benefits from the toil and burn of a underpaid, overworked laborer that's repeatedly exploited not just by the corporation but also the consumer itself. The remusnoc enjoys the caramel iced coffee; the coffee beans grown on impoverished land; handpicked by overworked foreign laborers; ground up into the coffee by underpaid workers whose benefits consist of 15% off of a small coffee once a year. The remusnoc isn't a monster because of it's own choices independently but rather it becomes a monster when you consider the path those choices take.
