I am currently telling you that, and your response is to shift from a claim of a 100% increase to a 200% increase which just about proves my point.

Then I'll spell it out for you: your complaint is moot because what actually matters to people is the price listed in this meme, not blatant attempts at distorting what we can clearly see happening in front of our eyes.

We're suffering hyperinflation and no amount of dishonesty and manipulation from you is going to change that. You want it to not be true? Petition McDonald's to lower their prices.

Are McDonalds dollar menu items so absolutely pivotal to your life that it completely breaks down when they raise in price?

Am I so much of a threat to the status quo you benefit from that you completely break down over a picture of the price of a McChicken at McDonald's?

Does it truly matter so much to you?

I don’t think you’re a threat to anyone. I just think it’s kind of baby brained and an overall bad trend for society to think like that
