If you ignore what else they say:

The vast majority of players pay only the minimum amount or slightly more,

Of course they're making this claim because that's what they do. Listen: BOYCOTT BOYCOTT BOYCOTT - stop funding things you don't want to see in this world. Stop funding things you don't want to reward.

If you do reward these actions (such as new subscription model services), or you're justifying them in online commentary (as the comment I replied to was, as you are) then you have no right to complain about them - because they were funded by you.

It's like paying the minimum on a Kickstarter for killing kittens, then commenting "Yes, but it's really the whales funding it".

Not if you're all funding it too. That still counts as funding it! STOP LYING TO YOURSELF!

You're raging against a discussion on nomenclature and blaming anyone that responds to you for your off-topic crusade. Maybe take a moment think about that.
