That's the point, dumbass. It's not a "Holier than thou" statement. Funny how you instantly lash out though, almost as if you've been trained.

Fucking vile sub-human shitbags.

Sir, this is a pizza place that hires mostly teenagers. There are much greater evils to get sweaty about. This one isn't it.

They chose to stay in hopes of continued profit.

I hate to spoil this for you but the only reason any brand or corp left Russia was because they were afraid of reduced profits (sanctions notwithstanding). End of story. That just happens to line up with the majority of people's sentiments which is "Fuck Russia." Don't confused morality with perfectly timed greed.

I just don't attach morality to shitty brands or corporations. It's okay we don't need to act like they are "on our side" because inherently they are the ones exploiting us. They cater to the market, not a sense of morality. Acting like they actually care, or have some sort of moral compass is just sticking your head in the sand against the irrefutable evidence of the capitalist hellscape we live in.

Here it is. The embodiment of the example I gave (before I even saw this lmao) in my responses to the idiots down voting.

Stop attaching morality to stupid fucking brands, people. The capitalists fucking hate you.

Find me an economic system where increasing profits at the expense of everything else isn't the only goal. Probably that one.

a thing I partake into in

More like a thing we're all forced into but yeah, the sentiment is correct.

Do you think that I think that I don't consume? I just don't attach morality to it, e.g. "Don't buy Domino's because they're still in Russia over a year after the war" or insert any virtue signaling "protest" like Bud Light etc.

So were you shamed by someone for doing this? Or maybe you're projecting that you think people would shame you for doing this?

Why is it that gamers who play at lower difficulty levels need to tell people about it in a manner that acts like it's some sort of "against the grain/unpopular opinion" thinking?
