I honestly don’t understand the visceral anger aimed at any business with a non-essential product offering.

It’s as if the individual complaining should be diagnosed with a variant of consumerism.

If you don’t like the pricing of a non-essential product, don’t buy it. But if you still desire said product to such an extreme that you pirate it, recognize your shortcomings.

This discussion would be wholly different if we were discussing healthcare, food, or any other necessity.

So, if you’re having an emotional reaction to a Netflix price increase, maybe you should get outside and touch some grass?

Will smaller alternatives be enough to upend their plans?

Adding a smile goes a long way, or at least it used to.
