 Commies hate ppl who build new things, and charge for it.

 What if we don't charge? 👀 
 You no eat. You no buy test equipment. You no build plastic molds. Etc... grants can't be the only way. Also unsustainable for hardware. 
 Capitalist loser mindset 
 The non-creator bias… just want to earn on other people making good things like any capitalist mf  
 Capitalism has lost. It is not a viable solution and history speaks clear. Just look at “democracy®” and how nice are the heads of the western capitalist bullcrap. And don’t come tell bs about those circle of burgeois intellectual, like those anarco capitalist bs no one wants to hear about..
Capitalism sucks and always will.
Capitalism is statalism, there is no capitalism without state and banks, don’t be blind. “Democracy” made more casualties than the nazi and Stalin combined 
 capitalees on tech have to stop ripping off other products, putting a useless new widget on it, and them doubling the price to offset their startup costs or whatever shell game they are playing at the time 
 If you can do it cheaper, do it. If the new widget is useless, don't buy their product.
The only problem in all this are patents and copyrights, which disable healthy competition.  
 and what would you suggest be different? 
 Don't whine, build the alternative you want to see. 
 this is an ignorant response 
 yeah, that's why almost all internet companies use the ad model. 
 I think you could even stop at “hate ppl who build new things” and it be true 
 Some truth to that. 
 maybe they just hate people
