I’m here with your regular reminder that is you see someone stealing food, no you didn’t.

I would say capitalism is the cancer, but conservatism sure supports it.

Which one is the psycho, and which one isn’t?

Neither. I’m pretty sure therapists are not using “how do you play The Sims” as a diagnostic tool, and if you think the situation you laid out is enough to diagnose anything about a person that just shows how woefully misinformed you are on the topic.

A number of individuals individually deciding that your post is stupid, irrelevant, or off topic does not a hivemind make.

Keep in mind Bob down the street has helped elect politicians dumber then he is.

If that’s not the very definition of a categorically unsustainable business model, I don’t know what the fuck is.

So is expecting infinite growth in a finite system and they’ve been doing that for years.

They want Trump to create the guardrails (the exact guardrails they tell him to create) before the midterms and the Republicans lose a bunch of seats.

I live every day without using a “net worth”. You can not spend, trade, or consume a “net worth”. If your government decides to print a bunch a money inflation is going to cause your “net worth” to be a bigger number, but that doesn’t change how many things you own. If the housing market crashes that also doesn’t change how many things you own, but your “net worth” changes to a different imaginary number.

Are you prepared to assert and prove that every single company over a certain revenue is exactly the same?

So in this conversation about a specific company, and how this specific company behaves, and someone commenting on pirating from this specific company, why am I being expected to extend that to every compy?

You seem to be the one creating hatred here.

Now, the one part I’ll admit is this logic doesn’t work as well in corporate atmospheres; where CEOs fire as many people as possible, reward no one for good performance, and would rather fudge numbers than sell a good product.

So you agree with the person you’re replying to, and the two paragraphs before this one are irrelevant to what’s being talked about?

The purpose of any home is to provide you with shelter and a place to live, not increase your imaginary high score.

The only purpose for value of your home is for selling it in order to purchase a different home. If the cost of the home you’ll be purchasing also goes down your not actually losing on anything except for a made up number, and your property taxes go down as well.

You don’t rent out precious metals, you sell them.

Housing can be affordable or an investment, not both.

People can invest elsewhere, in markets not necessary for survival.

There’s a reason “rent seeking” is a derogatory term.

It’s okay guys, they were swiftly mocked on social media for it!

Netflix had a different type of license they negotiated with the rights holder. They didn’t just buy DVDs retail and start mailing them around.

I never engage when her content is posted because I just don’t care

You are here right now, engaging with the content.

And members of that group seem to be the ones advertising her OF for her.

Sure, OF was mentioned in the comic, but I thought that was just as a way of calling her a whore.
