My former boss’s wife used to steer very strangely when driving - The Jeep was likely out of alignment, but instead of staying centered and making continuous small corrections, she’d let it drift to one side till it was on the line then quickly correct back towards center and then continue drifting, endlessly until arriving at the destination.

Leftist with lofty goals still have to settle - This is the real world, and far from an idealized utopia. We can step into the light while still recognizing we’re walking in the shade. Pro-rehabilitation folks still can believe that not all people can be rehabilitated. Capital punishment may sometimes be the only fitting remedy for civilization, if not just for the punished. There will always be evil in the world who aren’t capable of rehabilitation without some form of violence and punishment - Some crimes and criminals are beyond what the sane and just can fathom.

You clearly haven’t seen how bad “no-consequences cheap” can be with even simple electronics. Your lamp, for example:

Melting (under-spec or poor construction) AC wiring, poor material for the cord, switch or socket.

Melting / burning lampshade (yes, even with LEDs).

Electrocution risk - Loose connections, easily broken plug or lamp socket, switch, inappropriate (conductive) materials.**

And that’s not even considering larger-design problems - Lamps that are prone to falling over (and breaking, or melting other things), lamps that flex but not too much or they break exposing problems above, assemblies that aren’t reasonably child-proof, RF interference even.

The race to the bottom without rules is a dangerous place for the consumer expecting a bare minimum guarantee of fitness while inviting these products into their home, not to mention those most often buying the cheapest option may be the most vulnerable.

There’s some really fun chemistry in the rare-earth magnets - I used to buy them in bulk to enlarge my own IT-workshop collection, which was mostly broken down for Nd salts. Also, the magnets from iMac screens were also plentiful when HDD magnets got small (and then went extinct).

Take the underwear and go into the deep ocean or outer space.

Unlimited fresh breath is an invaluable bonus.
