The content of what you’re saying is “despite capitalism.” But what they’re doing… is just capitalism. They’re not a fucking co-op forced to exist within the context of capitalism. They’re a private corporation. Their founder and CEO lives on a yacht.
They are an example of capitalism going well, not some kind of counterexample to capitalism itself. In no sense are they “crawling.” Again: yacht. They have a fuckton of money, and a supermajority of sales in an open market, to the point they’re a de facto monopoly. Y’all need to stop implying they’re doing anything besides bog-standard capitalism.
And yet they ignore the most lucrative thing in existence currently, so they ignore the profit incentive.
I never said anything about it being a counter example to capitalism.
The Steam zealots can try to deny Iit but steams Most important edge in the Market is their Network effect and first mover advantage. That’s why they can afford to sleep on the technology that reduces production cost.
Again because you have missed that on multiple occasions already which is quite the achievement given the scarcity of comments:
I never said anything about it being a counter example to capitalism. So please do not pretend like I said that.
The fuck do you mean, “they ignore the profit incentive?” Like it’s not true capitalism unless they reject everything besides money money more money all the money only money matters.
People point out that what they’re doing is plainly capitalism, and you repeatedly counter, they are “crawling despite capitalism.” What does that fucking mean? What are you trying to say, if not this?
I feel I’ve been clear in establishing, it’s still capitalism, even when it’s not maximally evil. No zealotry is required, to point out, they are absolutely doing shit for profit, even if that doesn’t mean setting puppies on fire to fuel the torment nexus for the biggest profit you can imagine. Capitalism that’s less awful than the worst examples still counts - unlike what the root comment treats as inseparable from the premise.

Unfortunately i cannot make it blink in Red or make it Take on the taste of hamburgers. I dont know what an American needs to auccessfully decipher a sentanced that doesnt corralte to its programming… And to be quite honest i give up.
When you repeat yourself the, what? Third or fourth time? It is clearly an issue of differing cognitive Processing, that i am not qualified to synchronize.
Right, it’s not a counter example to capitalism, we just cannot ignore the core aspect of capitalism and still claim it to be capitalism.
If a business does not do literally everything possible to make number go up, that’s not true Scotsman, I mean capitalism. How could private ownership and wage labor and charging a premium for other studios’ work be capitalism, and also how dare you say I claim it’s not capitalism?

They are insanely profitable.

Capitalisms motivator is Profit
So when they are not doing everything in their Power to make a Profit, that is not true capitalism.

I know the American schools are bad, but holy shit.
