Xbox users booting up their console today were greeted with a large splash screen prompting them to buy it now that the new campaign is out, and some of them aren't too happy about it.

Are you going to talk about how capitalism still uses slavery?

Sorry bud, but one system or commodity being garbage doesn't make it OK to perpetuate trash.

Once again, you are demonstrating how utterly pathetic your morals are.

All I'm hearing is that your exceptions to principles are fine and perfect and valid, and mine are not. The only mitigating factor seems to be your belief that we disagree on the subject of xbox advertisments, specifically.

You started this by calling principles a luxury. In defense of ADVERTISEMENTS.

The present condition of subsidies and moral status of entire industries is NOT the topic of discussion. It's ADVERTISEMENTS. How are you seriously so dense as to conflate the two?

We're talking about a company doing further enshittification in a system that's already supposed to be paid for by subscriptions. Not about what commodities are perfectly moral to consume. Your entire interjection is a fucking what-about-ism that started via a selfish statement of dismissal.

There IS a place to talk about immoral consumption under capitalism, but it is NOT as a dismissive response to a corporation doing yet another shitty thing.
