        You can always shut up when people complain about known shitty practices by overstuffed companies.

              Many say it is impossible to not buy it, but I say that one can actually not buy it.

                  As a matter of fact people are indeed buying too much shit, no matter how overpriced things are. Leading to more overpriced things because people are buying anyway (and then maybe complain about it).

                  I fully agree, these pricing tactics are scummy af, but the dude is right: stop buying everything and/or buy used.

                  Bootlicking? I’m basically saying don’t buy stupid shit from shit companies who are price gauging.
