You're just proving grand parent commenter's point.
Saying that capitalism motivates censorship is like saying that money is what causes theft and robbery. It's a meaningless statement based on conflating motivation in one specific case with motivation for a class of actions in general. Not to mention that you're also conflating an economic system with what most people would simply call greed.
- fzeroracer 7y agoCapitalism absolutely motivates censorship. Companies change their products to fit regional taste in order to appeal to the largest market possible. To say otherwise would be to ignore the entire history of the gaming industry. We can argue about whether or not certain changes are good or not, but it is undeniable that companies modify their products for maximum profit which is at the core what capitalism is about.
