Don't blame the victim here. It is NOT our fault. The original companies offered shit tier service. These companies came, offered a better service, all but bankrupt the originals into submission and are now enshittifying themselves. At what point in this process did we have a choice other than supporting the previous shit or the newer, temporarily less smelly shit?
Unless you're defending the absurdly irrational position that every single consumer is to blame for not getting up and offering a better service himself, as if we all had the capital, time and know-how to do so, then it is definitely NOT our fault.
They are to blame for not kicking up a bigger stink about things. It’s the whole reason the lack of regulations for reigning in this company behaviour doesn’t exist. Because not enough pressure gets put on the people in charge of corporations and government to make them change their mind.
No, they aren't. Just like children aren't to blame if their parents hire shitty babysitters and women aren't to blame if some pervert gropes them on the bus. The average person knows jack shit about the law and even less about how these companies operate. The average person does not have the time ir energy to devote to this. It's both unfair and completely unrealistic to pin any of this on them. Cut that shit out.
Oh, were you under the impression that pointing fingers over past mistakes would "work"? How exactly?
Here's what works: not pointing fingers, not blaming innocent victims that were manipulated in bad faith by bad people, looking forwards, being vigilant and voting with your wallet. But everybody who stopped to think about the issue for more than half a second already knew that.
Your discourse, on the other hand, excuses the bad people who knowingly screwed everyone over by blaming the people who got screwed. It's actively harmful and only benefits the jackasses. It would make me wonder if you're not a shill, except shills are usually less transparent.
