but we want more money… And therefore deserve it. I don’t see what the problem is here

Don’t forget Hasbro trying to pull a retroactive licensing for all D&D stuff. Oh, and sending the Pikertons to harass a person that got set of cards before release by accident
Sending Pinkertons after a civilian was extremely fucked up, especially for a fuckup they made. The Pinkertons are basically a neo-nazi militia.
I didn’t even think they still existed till then
Sadly the cold war saved them by the bell just before they had their last kneecaps shattered. (Hmmm! I wonder why the cold war happened!!)
reddit belongs on that list
I mean it’s a bit more complicated than that. In the past not every company had to be profitable. They were just focusing growth over everything else. But with rising cost due to inflation and rising interest rates they suddenly have to become profitable. And then they proceed to make to worst ever business decisions, to become profitable, but achieve the exact opposite.
Its simple greed and disdain for their users that they somehow believe if they begin to charge for something that used to be free the use base will simply eat it and be happy.
It’s a pretty severe contradiction of capitalism: When everyone is out to extract as much money as possible, all of it is going to go to whoever the best at doing that, leaving very little for everyone else. This capital isn’t being used to better the human race, it’s sitting in an offshore bank account, funding far right death squads and/or genocides, or being spent on the most vile of child exploitation.
