No, he did not.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodity_fetishism

In the first chapter of Capital: A Critique of Political Economy (1867), commodity fetishism is used to explain how the social organization of labour manifests in the buying and selling of commodities (goods and services). In the marketplace, social relations among people—who makes what, who works for whom, the production-time for a commodity, etc.—are represented as social relations among objects.[3]

In the process of commercial exchange, commodities appear in a depersonalized form, obscuring the social relations inherent to their production.[4] Marx explained the sociology of commodity fetishism:

As against this, the commodity-form, and the value-relation of the products of labour, within which it appears, have absolutely no connection with the physical nature of the commodity and the material relations arising out of this. It is nothing but the definite social relation, between men, themselves, which assumes here, for them, the fantastic form of a relation between things. In order, therefore, to find an analogy, we must take flight into the misty realm of religion. There the products of the human brain appear as autonomous figures endowed with a life of their own, which enter into relations, both with each other and with the human race. So it is in the world of commodities with the products of men's hands. I call this the fetishism which attaches itself to the products of labour as soon as they are produced as commodities, and is, therefore, inseparable from the production of commodities.[5]

According to Marx, the operation of commodity fetishism requires the owners of capital to actively ignore or maintain an indifference to the relational whole that produces a commodity.[6]

tl:dr, Marx described that capitalism produces a semi-religious veneration for and obsession with products themselves, as a byproduct of alienating the worker from the work, from themselves, from their humanity, and from others.

An extremely rough, modern, internet slang way to say it might be 'you being a shopping addict is basically you just being kinky for capitalism, which is something captialism itself produces in people'.

Ya'll need to read some theory and up your meme game.

I do like going shopping but that's because then I get stuff, and having new stuff is cool. But you don't need a capitalist hierarchy to make any of this happen

I won't upvote this, but it did make me laugh

I'm a Marxist girl

In a Marxist world

I heard that Marx was, ironically, rather financially irresponsible and often had money troubles. Once he had money he spent it all on parties and nice food and such.

This is blatant consumerist propaganda!

Also shopping not fun. I want to walk into a store and pick up Balsamic Glaze and leave. I don't want to have to assess the minute differences in weight, cost, and quality of 30 different products that are all in the same race to win over my dollar and maximize their profits.

That's one reason why refill store is good.

Well then do i have an opportunity to preach the good word of syndicalism to you.

Sidebar, actually accounting for human behavior isn't as simple as telling people to not be cruel to one another.

Have you ever been to a free shop?

Tbh I don't get "shopping"/"retail therapy." Obviously I have wants for luxuries, but usually I pine after these for months and hold off on the decision until I feel I have saved enough and worked hard enough to justify it. Spontaneously going out to buy luxury items is a much rarer impulse for me.

You can still shop under communism

💖🧸 come on Marxi, let’s go party 🎉💖

If we have a communist revolution, then we can all go shopping at the free store!

My brother in the Invisible Pink Unicorn, you can still shop in communism. And whatever you need is free.

I get it now 🥲

• Boris Yeltzin in an American 🇺🇸🦅Grocery Store:

To be fair, Usagi did go on to cure death and create a neo-socialist workers paradise while bloodlessly uniting all the people of earth...

I think he probably considered this - part of commodity fetishism?

compelling argument.

Yeah but under communism you have a leader who puts a collar on you and calls you a good puppy and you waf at them :3

One side of me shuns consumerism.
Other wants to participate in the stereotpical feminine tradition, out of spite.

Is shopping for groceries fun?

Didnt get it
