LOL.

We pay for 4K, but we don’t get more than 720p unless we use some proprietary shit hardware and agree to their super-invasive “privacy policy” - and they expect people to NOT set sail in the high seas? GTFO…

But realistically even if pump and dump schemes like this make the customers hate them, it might still make more as a total sum - and if so as a cooperation they’d almost have to take the shitty route (or be surpassed by someone who will).

Yay capitalism

Lol, you think greed won’t exist under socialism? Greed is why communism fails every time. People are inherently greedy in a world where scarcity exists.

Uh no? I don’t think I really implied it wouldn’t either, nor even that I’m a socialist tbh

something something manufactured scarcity changes things

How many more democratically elected Latin American governments do we have to replace with fascist military dictatorships before you finally understand that socialism simply doesn’t work?

Why yes, greed is exactly why Cuba deserves to be embargoed for all eternity, look how flawed communism is lol haha /s

All I see here is pointing fingers at Cuba and Venezuela failing in places that they were sabotaged by the US, big surprise.

What use is communism when it’s so easily foiled by capitalism? Seems like a major flaw.

Luckily, we don’t live in a world where scarcity exists, just one with a resource distribution problem.

Wrong, there’s a distinct scarcity of logic in your arguments.

“Scarcity is so fundamental to economics that scarce goods are also known as economic goods. In economics, scarce goods are those for which demand would exceed supply at a price of zero.” https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/scarcity.asp
