I’m sorry you’re too stupid to understand people can criticize your chosen pedophile representative.

Calling everything that disagrees with your owners’ world view “propaganda” is just pure slavebrained behavior.

Yes, the fact they are able to feed themselves while under crushing sanctions and even have a fucking space program means they have a more efficient economy than say, the US with it’s 1% hunger rate or the UK which is starting to kick people out of housing because they ‘can’t afford it.’ They are able to accomplish the same thing every society has as a goal – taking care of its people better than if they were on their own – with 1/10,000th of the resources.

Developing countries that aren’t in famine are indeed better economies than developed countries, because they don’t have developing countries to exploit to prop up their economy.

Oh hey blatant Hasbara made by a UK website that justified the UK’s slave trade as a positive thing for the slaves. What a surprise.

And posted by a UK account that justified killing journalists and children.

I wonder what their dual nationality is.

“Corrupt and inefficient economy” they are able to fight the world’s most expensive army while still actively selling munitions to Russia while also at a food surplus while also managing to punish a dozen US allies that picked sides poorly. Even the CIA admits they could keep this up for YEARS.

They have a far more efficient economy than any country in the west – all developing countries do by necessity.

Your list of ‘victories’ seem to all be against people at least ten centuries behind your current technology. That’s not a war. That’s just genocide. And no, the UK did not win WWII. They were busy hiding in their bunkers while real countries actually fought and died.

(also “found him annoying” is a weird euphemism for “stalking while committing multiple hate crimes and threatening” but that’s why Labor is looking more and more like UKIP these days, brown men can’t defend themselves against “True Englishman” aggression.)

Yes that is indeed self-defense and will be found as such in any country that isn’t the UK. Even the US isn’t this stupid, and that’s saying something.

That’s for the courts to decide, “kiddo”.

They did in the 1980s with walmart, kiddo.

Nice exercise of brand loyalty, but irrelevant in this scenario.

Incorrect, this is an ‘exercise’ of explaining a very basic fact of capitalism that has been happening longer than the word ‘capitalism’ has existed. This policy is the default for all stores on Earth.

Not really no. Ubisoft agreed to these terms in order to sell their game on steam. If they sold their game on any third party platform, they would agree to the same or even more severe terms. They even made their own storefront specifically so they would have the option to not sell on a third party platform.

They now cry foul because they got all the benefits from selling on steam, but they don’t want to pay for any of those benefits.

There is nothing illegal being done by steam kiddo. And ‘good faith’ is defending themselves against sabotage, which is what ubisoft is suing for the ability to do here.

I voted for Harris, I’m not campaigning for her literally years after the election though like you are, only a literal pedophile would do that.

You are conflating very different things here, I’m afraid.

I’m really not. You want a neutral marketplace that just provides a service without a profit motive. That’s what it comes down to. Because any service that requires a profit will naturally protect that profit, and that includes excluding suppliers that are actively sabotaging it.

Congrats on being on the extreme minority that thinks killing and raping children is morally justified.

Except what’s the alternative? They’ve wedged themselves in that space, and bought out any other competitor.

Aliexpress, walmart.com, ebay.com, wayfair.com, any manufacturer’s website. Or the actual global leader in the space, Alibaba which dwarfs Amazon’s entire marketplace with over twice the users and easily a thousand times the suppliers.

So either they get forced to compete with themselves (by breaking the company apart) or they adhere to anti-monopoly laws where they’re not allowed to influence other prices as part of their agreement.

Or, if people think private companies should be neutral, like a public service… PEOPLE SHOULD FUCKING ADVOCATE AND ORDER THEIR GOVERNMENTS TO PROVIDE A PUBLIC SERVICE.

It is infinitely easier and better to get the government to do things for you than it is to force a private company to do things for you.

That’s insanity. Under those terms, most suppliers would be at the whims of platform owners.

Congrats, you found one of the many problems with the concept of capitalism.

Microsoft asking Valve for a 50% cut? Sure. Google delisting a website because the owner criticized their CEO? Absolutely. Amazon telling you to sell at a loss or not sell at all? Why not.

Yes. That is how all that works. Because they are all private companies and it is voluntary to use their services.

If you think those services should be neutral, congrats, you’re advocating for communism. I think communism is pretty cool and there should be a state-run online marketplace that is entirely non-profit. But you seem to think you should or could force companies to be that public entity. That’s not only not realistic and not how the world has ever worked under capitalism, but it’s just simply a bad idea. Look at the USPS for why you should not have a private entity perform a public service.
