Providing a reliable stable service and prices is communism
If you can't keep increasing prices then there's only so many other ways to squeeze victims of capitalism:
- shrink the product
- make the product shittier (e.g. use cellulose as filler)
- Cut costs by firing staff or cutting corners

>Just vote with your wallet bro
There's 3 mobile internet providers in America, there was 4 until a few years ago when Sprint was allowed to be bought by T-Mobile
There's only a few NAND (SSD) producers in the world, including Samsung. They literally just all agreed to stop making NAND chips in 2023 because they got too cheap, that's what capitalism does when things get cheaper, just stop making it until it gets more expensive again
There's only two companies that control smartphones and their major app stores.

I thought the government was supposed to stop corporations from buying up all competition until they're one giant super-corporation?
Like because then they suck up everything, and once everything is sucked up they enter the enshittification phase and squeeze every penny they can out consoomers
Why doesn't the government do anything?

To be fair, in the USA like 90% of produce is picked before it's ripe
The strawberries taste "crunchy" almost, with little to no sugar content

>Implying supply and demand is still a thing
In fact, when demand drops, they increase prices to make up for the lost profit to shareholders, hoping the smaller number of people willing to pay more will counteract it.

Westerners seriously think Mao killed 45 million people in the "great leap forward".
Meanwhile reality:
- The population increased in China during that same time
- The stats are entirely based on "estimates" of what western propagandists thought the increase "should" have been, and total difference = killed by communism
- If you ask people who literally lived through that time period they won't know wtf you're talking about
Did someone somewhere in China suffer malnutrition during that time period? I'm sure, China has always had famines somewhere, you could actually say communists stopped them.
Stalin is a victim of similar western cold war propaganda that people still believe.
