They got you fighting a console war so you don’t fight a class war 😔
Well I agree on your general standpoint, but blaming a company or talking about how one company is bad is IMHO totally fine, even if other shitty companies exist. Otherwise we end up in whataboutism.
I want to be able to say “Apple is Nestle for IT” without being colored as a Windows fan. Both are shit and blaming one doesn’t imply being fine with the others.

I find there’s this dynamic where when they’re talking about their favored platform in neutral spaces, they’ll be slavish fanboys shitting in other platforms and passionately defending their platform. But in spaces dedicated to their platform, it’s nothing but gripes and grievances about the shitty things the corporation is doing with regards to the platform.

We’re calling them nintendrones, by the way.
And they deserve to be drone-striked.

your name explains everything
In a capitalist society we are constantly judging and being judged as having moral character based on our consumption. Pierre Bourdieu called this “distinction” and argued that the objects we buy and surround ourselves with represent “taste” that demonstrates and furthers class positioning in a capitalist society. Under capitalism, these objects carry great meaning and a person can communicate complex ideas and social information simply by how they hold a specific consumer good in their hand. Bourdieu argued that class struggle is also a “classification struggle”.
I revel in your misery gamers.
