I guess it depends on your definition.
The issue is that buying something for the memes isnt worth less, it's 'what you are actually buying'?.
If I arbitarily decide to buy an apple for $10 that I could have bought for $1, what did I actually buy with the $9.
Publicity? Goodwill?
I don't believe I only bought an apple, even from the person I bought it from.
- satvikpendem 2mo agoYou bought $1 of apple and $9 of memes. That you spent 9 dollars of that for such a purpose is none of my concern.
- watutalkinbout 2mo agoWhich is exactly why people should be defining things in terms of the seller, not the buyer.
- satvikpendem 2mo agoThe seller sold it to you at the price you wanted so it'd be the same.
- watutalkinbout 2mo agoYes, but (he at least thought) he only sold what he owned, but I bought more than what he owned. Now he's been pursued by the press to comment, and he's the guy that sold that thing for $X for the rest of his life. I bought that from him too. If I paid the market price, that doesn't happen. So what did I really buy?
