Does Capitalism and Puritanism go hand in hand? For instance, it seems Puritans don’t value “”tradition” hence they are always looking for new “trends” that will be discarded only a year later.

Hey guys, I have seen this observation and wanted your take on it. For instance, we see it with the phenomenon of fast fashion where ugly clothes will be come “trendy” only for them to be reject a year or two down the line. In contrast in other cultures its possible to buy a piece of clothing and keep it to use it years later. However, this would be against the “Puritan logic” of mass consumption and mass production.
