Didn’t Redbox die like a year or 2 ago? The company went bankrupt and just abandoned all the machines and some people were strategically acquiring them.
They’re still operating them mate. Doesn’t matter if they’re all universally owned.
But, holy shit, this wasn’t even my point. It was about owning something! I used DVD to refer to owning physical media instead of watching a movie while paying for a subscription and watching ads at the same time.
Pirate your media, buy DVDs at thrift stores or Facebook marketplace, or whatever. That was my point. It’s amazing to me that people pay for cable and pay for streaming services and still watch ads.
Holy shit the level of autism in you. I can’t compete.
I’m autistic too, but I fall for this a lot trying to explain to other autistic people that don’t understand. You are being an asshole when you take every sentence someone says literally. Especially, in the context of a completely different point someone is trying to make.
I said to rent a dvd. In the context of the post that is a suggestion to get media in different ways.
You can pirate shit, you can go to the library (some have HUGE selections for free), etc. That was the INTENTION of that sentence. A neuro typical person would understand this. Hell, most autistic people would understand this. But you sure are going on another level to purposely misunderstand the point of my comment.
Dude. Your first reply was some age based condescending bull shit. You’re really gonna play the ableist card at this point?
You can do it. You can admit you hyperfocused on one sentence, started with some condescending comment, and then kept doubling down.
I’ve given you so many opportunities to just say “yeah, I was nitpicking your comment”.
I even reached out to you as clearly someone that is recognizing your own atypical brain in empathy. Like, it’s just you and me reading these comments at this point mate. You can admit you started this is bad faith; and I can admit I took the bait.
I want you to go search “Redbox near me” on Google. If you’re in a major city there will be a bunch.
Also, I wasn’t saying that people use DVDs. But, if I wasn’t pirating I’d consider it over watching ads.

I want you to go search “is Redbox still in business?”

I’m criticizing you because you were being condescending earlier. Now you’re being ableist.

No it wasn’t, you’re mistaking me for someone else.
