I mean yea
usually when I bake a cake or buy one I like eating it after.
But then you don't have it anymore
Yes I make my cake using the community kitchen and share it
I can just take a photo of it?
Then I literally have the same visual experience
Oh, I didn't know having a photo of something was the same as possessing the actual thing
Wait I'm sorry I forgot you can't read.
wait it isn't 😱
It seems YOU are the one who cannot read because I said you don't HAVE THE CAKE anymore after you eat it, I didn't say anything about the "visual experience"
Can you cite me saying you still "Have the cake"
Well there was this
And then when I pressed further you went into a non-sequitur
Stating I want both does not mean I have both.
Also that would not be a non-sequitur as I am staying on topic and stating that I would have the same visual experience in essence whether I have the photo of the real thing.
Well, firstly, again, I didn't say anything about the visual experience. Is the "visual experience" the only thing that makes having a cake worthwhile? What about the olfactory experience? The tactile experience? The gustatory experience? You can't get any of these things from a picture
If you're some kind of weirdo who just likes looking at cakes, then sure, a picture might do something for you
All of these things are irrelevant. As the primary and majority experience is the visual one.
This is why cake shops display the visual experience of their cake rather than giving you the other experiences as well.
IF you really care about the smell, buy cake perfume.
The olfactory experience in a cake shop is a pretty big factor too I'd say
I am appealing to the free market majority.
ONLY RELEVANT CAKE FEATURE IS TASTE
I understand that you as a communist may not understand how the free market works, but it is an amazing tool that allocates resources and preference to the highest ability.
So what you're saying is, you don't really care about having your cake and eating it too, you just want to look at a picture of it and eat it too.
As stated the visual experience ***Is*** the cake.
I fundamentally reject this assertion, but you're free to have that opinion I guess.
Btw, here's $100 USD, don't spend it all in one place.
yeah that's crazy it might be what get's you to buy the cake but if that would be the case why would anyone eat cake
HALO IS OUT

@Deleted User Hey you brought back my favorite profile pic of yours 😄

no it's highest bidder cus the def for demand if *the willingness and ability to buy a good/service*
@Revolutionaryarmchair Whats the argument for that?
Therefore whenever you raise prices and the quantity demanded drops, you basically exclude access cus this is often due to high prices acting a barrier to purchase
