    in the same way taco bell is a substitute for mcdonalds.

    this is only a substitute if you assume the problem is poor people having treats, and not employees being fucked out of their pay. if you assume the problem is delivery staff being fucked out of their pay, the problem, and in many cases exact companies/staff, are the same.

      I am not even getting into how shiti these parasite treat the workers.

      Just merely notting that getting slop delivered by doordash is the most expensive option on the market, everyone is bitching about being poor then proceeda to defend using this trash service

      Which is also terriable for the worker on top of that

        this isn’t about bitching about being poor, and being worn down to nothing and badgered and bullied by advertising until your will to resist wears out isn’t something you should blame the victim for. if you want to bitch at people about consuming beyond their means, yell at an ad-man.

            so, why do trillions of dollars of the economy go to making them make worse ones every day, grinding them down until they don’t have the energy to resist, and pushing them?

            just because it’s fun? or does it, to some extent, work? stop blaming victims in a thread about corporations fucking people over.

                you’re the one who brought it up to piss on poor people in a thread about megacorporations fucking over their employees by stealing wages/tips.

                  Who funds these mega corpos?

                  How much of what they provide is actually must have?

                    but you suggested they suck off other corpos who have the exact same systems with the exact same exploitation for a slightly different product you claim does the same outcome to the consumer.

                    also, the government. the government funds most of them. this ‘illusion of consumer choice’ thing is pretty delusional, and just feels like victim blaming. remember ‘plastic recycling’?

                    and you didn’t answer my question about advertising. why? why spend so much on it if it doesn’t work? if people’s decisions are their own?
