This is plain irrational, people are buying this game at a faster pace than ever despite this shit costing 70$, but still charging up to 28$ for one single cosmetic set exclusive to a fucking cash shop, plus a fucking battle-pass. I've never been a fan of the series in fact I never played Diablo III so I can't relate but still, Blizzard got into the brain of their clients with this shit it's just fucked up. It's not rational, consumerism at this level can't just be a trick that is played on their brains by clever marketing teams, it's deeper than that. People are being broken, their wits have been altered. There is something about impulse control that was removed from their abilities. No ableism intended, people with disorders need respect and care. I think that capitalism is responsible for damaging people mentally, those people are victims and need help.

End of rant.

The Liberals need advertisements, especially on teh vulnerable children, to indoctrinate the consumerism mentality on the people because the Liberals think that the people cannot make their own financial decision contrary to their democratic slogan. The Liberals also think that wasteful spending will magically boost the economy, but they hide that the economic boost is from increased investment on con-artists to bankrupt countries into huge debt from 'foreign aids' and on military coercion to establish genocidal governments in former European colonies so they can violate property rights, loot from Indigenous groups, enslave the local people, and dump all their toxic waste into third world countries to create all the third world problems. They already use the Indian Residential fake Schools to enslave Indigenous children in North America and Australia and stop the abducted Indigenous children from invalidating the fake documents that will transfer all the inheritance of the abducted children to the European immigrants to sustain their wasteful spending although the residential fake schools become less productive beginning in 1980s.
