You can tell people are doomed economically when they fail to grasp supply and demand.

It's more that people want to be outraged and feel self-righteous and also the outrage bots are happy to oblige with deceptively framed stories and social media comment fabrication.

I could be wrong, and there is some evidence that Samsung is doing something shady. I think I'd know about it if it were public because I work in an office that manages large investments so news like a massive company manipulating prices would show up in the various information services that we use.

You mean Samsung who has a history of LCD panel price fixing in 2010? Or the CRT price fixing in 2018? Or the DRAM price fixing in 2005?

It's collusion.

I mean you aren't wrong but you also don't understand it.
