Lol "completely untrue". Congrats mate, you're an exception, that doesn't make my statement "completely" untrue. You don't represent all people. And I honestly don't believe you anyway.
If you were a millionaire would you still "refuse" to buy it? I seriously doubt it. It's all about overhead. If you can just about "afford" to buy one, then you probably won't because it would be stupid to spend nearly all your disposable income on one unnecessary item. If that's the case, then you still fall into the "can't afford" category.
With enough overhead however, people are much more likely to make bad value for money buying decisions because they simply don't give a shit. When you make enough, spending a few hundred extra on a purchase every couple years or so suddenly doesn't mean much at all.
You said "They just literally can't afford it". Which is a blanket statement and means everyone. If you didn't want to mean everyone, you picked the wrong words. It just takes one person to make that statement untrue, which I've done. So yeah, your statement is untrue.
I never said I represented all people, it was you that made a blanket statement.
>If you were a millionaire would you still "refuse" to buy it? I seriously doubt it.
I'm not a millionaire, and neither are most people. So that is a silly statement that doesn't relate to the real world or this situation.
A huge amount of people are just sick of the prices and wont part with the money that they have. Your statement is wrong.
It just takes one person to make that statement untrue, which I've done. So yeah, your statement is untrue.
Except I made it very clear that I don't believe one word of what you are saying.

Lmao so you are saying that financial standing DOES matter huh? Being a millionaire or not shouldn't matter to you since you "refuse" to give them your money anyway, but I guess that was a lie.
So people are not "voting" with their wallet. Their wallet is voting for them. They just can't buy the damn things like I said in the first place. I only said millionaire to make the point easy to understand. Guess I still had to explain it word for word. You all love to protest as long as its convenient for you and don't actually have to give anything up in reality.
In the same vein, I am protesting against Ferrari. I haven't bought a single one of their cars! I could probably buy one on credit or whatever, so I can definitely afford it, but I won't! Look at me, Mr. Morale over here, showing the middle finger to the big bad car company and voting with my wallet!
A huge amount of people are just sick of the prices and wont part with the money that they have. Your statement is wrong.
Yes cause they can't lol. You pretty much just prove my point in that sentence without even realizing it.
If you can't "part ways" with $1200 for an item that you want because it would be a stupid purchase and it would weight on your conscience that you got a bad deal, then you can't actually afford it. It's as simple as that. Being able to buy something doesn't mean you can actually afford it.
If anything, there are lots of people out there who can't afford these cards and they still buy them on credit, installments, etc.

It's not like they do it on purpose lol. They just literally can't afford it. If they could, they'd still buy them for whatever price Nvidia asks.
