      Well nobody is, and that’s not really what he said. Break it down, he’s saying if a person wants something, it takes resources to acquire said thing. There’s no force here, just intrinsic motivation.

        There has to be a line somewhere where your ideology meets reality. Maybe that line doesn’t extend to living off-the-grid on a commune and growing your own food, but I think we can safely put it at buying Reddit coins.

      Nobody. But they want to have Reddit coins to reward people who do things they like. So they have to pay for them to satisfy that want.

      They might also pay for pizza, beer and cinema tickets too. Same difference.

        I just wish they could satisfy that want by spending that money on poor people instead of rich people. Donate to a charity instead of buying emojis.
