"The original idea was to have very expensive gadgets, which people in certain societies buy just to show off, and to get them to throw it."
This is phrased like some kind of shot at consumerism but isn't it an even bigger flex to buy an expensive gadget and then immediately start throwing it dangerously high in the air?

- FeteCommuniste 3y agoRight, but that quote from the creator of the app is phrased like his intention for it was the opposite of "showing off."
