    Credit card installments exist all over the world. Those are not loans

    Is that what’s being displayed here, a pizza paid by credit card installments?

      What is displayed here is a price disparity for the same item. The top bar of the meme identifies this as a side effect of capitalism. The title is talking about insane financing schemes which are also perceived as a side effect of capitalism. That is how they are related, and I’m pretty sure OP is making a joke with the 69% reference. The whole mood says “capitalism bad”.

        So, some things are more expensive than others? That’s an insane financing scheme for you? And that’s a meme?

        My god, this is a whole nother level of dementia, even for Lemmy

          I think you misunderstood me. A price disparity for the same item and insane financing schemes are both byproducts of capitalism, not byproducts of each other.

          Ah, yes, railing against the commenters who are kindly going out of the way to explain something for you instead of OP who posted and wrote the thing. That’s the only dementia I’m seeing right now.

      thats what the title is referring to. as in, not what is in the image itself. the image itself is showing the same product for the same size yet the “kids” version is almost a dollar cheaper than what everybody else would usually get
