This is the comment I responded to initially: https://midwest.social/post/23827090/15643582

Capcom regularly puts out certified bangers. I’ll keep buying their games for as long as those games are high quality experiences are worth the money. They can learn about microtransactions by me not buying those lol.

I was agreeing with someone else, and was sarcastically called a "good little consumer." Which fine, but I'm going to respond. So no, the comment I initially responded to was not informing people not to buy, the next I responded to was a sarcastic remark, and the next was, I believe flawed, justification for why its objectively wrong to buy a game? Or buy it on day one, or something.

Is the objective to silence me? To make me follow along with a mainstream opinion that I don't agree with? I just want to play the new MH and not be made to feel bad about it.

Maybe I'm not as up to date on all the nuances of this argument, but how do you think I feel when I spend significant time and energy learning and educating about political theory and practice, just to have people disagree with me from a point of ignorance?

Maybe its just something you all are gonna have to learn to deal with, having people who share your interests but not your opinions disagree with you.

Yeah, sorry, one comment up from that one was the one I thought you responded too. Doesn't change anything though as far as I'm concerned.

I don't think there is anything left to say, good luck with that Revolution thing.
