It's as if getting an advantage because of money instead of merit and effort is unfair. Such a wild idea could only really work on videogames haha.

People hate pay_to_win because it robs them of the illusion that the universal equalities of man in their liberal charter works...

It's like, yk, how a labor market is portrayed as a transaction between an equal voluntary seller and buyer in Capital, only for the reality to be more the opposite...

Seriously tho. Say you killed a bunch of people to take their land, then rent off bits of it so people can farm and pay you or live and pay you. Then you use those profits to purchase OP weapons and teabag on some pathetic noob. ITS THE FREE MARKET
