    Sounds like a long winded way to say you don’t understand network effects or monopolies

        I’m sorry you can’t understand the difference between a principled anti-monopolist like Lina Khan and a Tim Epic simp

        How does it feel not grasping what it means to be an antimonopolist? I imagine it’s kind of expensive.

            Who is defending Epic? You seem to be conflating legitimate criticism of Valve (which everyone should do) with defending the douchebag Tim Sweeney (which no one should do). But it’s a false choice to think you have to support one team or the other; both companies can be bad, and criticism of app store fees (whether Apple’s or Valve’s) has nothing to do with supporting Epic, that’s just a false equivalence.

              You literally are spouting out the same nonesense Sweeny does multiple places in this post. To say you’re not defending him or his platform is a blatant lie anyone with eyeballs reading this thread can see.

              Good day, sir or madam.

                Let’s say Donald Trump says corporate landlords shouldn’t be able to own houses. If someone else makes the same argument, that doesn’t make them a Trump supporter. You get that, right?
