EDIT: The only reason why I still had it at this point was because I could use it with other apps. However, now that my Spotify Subscription is cancelled, it doesn't work with anything. It's mildly infuriating because today, I can't still use it with other apps like I was able to yesterday.
Please don't make the same mistake I made. No one should buy this.
Deception followed by coersion is an excellent way to increase shareholder returns.
Why do you hate capitalism?
Deception and coercion are by definition not part of capitalism. If those things are happening, capitalism has broken down.
— Wikipedia
I’ve highlighted the parts the conflict with deception and coercion.
You're quoting capitalism's sales pitch of capitalism.
Go to your local tent city in every city if you want to see what "voluntary" looks like, dying of exposure and ~~police~~ capital defense force harassment while serving as capitalism scarecrows to keep the working poor scared shitless into "voluntarily" showing up to be exploited for already wealthy people's further profit for their unquenchable greed.
Capitalists aren't even willing to admit being greedy, only acting on "rational self-interest." If you want to believe what capitalism claims to be, you do you. If you want to see what capitalism is, use your senses and your critical thinking skills.
It's a definition. When something doesn't match the definition, it doesn't meant the definition is wrong it means it's wrong to call that thing that term.
Greed is, by definition, irrational. But greed vs generosity is independent of capitalism.
If you want to see what "capitalism" is, learn what a definition is and how that relates to reality.
If there are people who truly have no choice, then you don't have a free market and you don't have capitalism. However, I will say that I was homeless and during that time my choices were constrained but didn't disappear. I stopped being homeless because I made the right choices while homeless. This "having no choice" thing is simply not true.
