Indeed. It blows my mind how many intelligent, articulate, and privileged people in our modern society fail to realize how much their privilege insulates them from understanding the basics of supply and demand. Anyone who has ever worked on a factory floor, or a construction site, or even a kitchen (I doubt the tweeter has ever worked a job like this in their entire life) intuitively understands excess inventory as waste. They also intuitively understand that this waste translates to money needlessly spent earlier than it needed to be, or even worse, spent and then lost due to reality changing, demand shifts, etc.

It really feels like a lot of these folks go to university, embrace a quasi-religious ideology where large companies are the devil and are therefore the root of all things bad, and profits are a sign of greed. Meanwhile, the douchenozzle is sitting there writing that tweet on a piece of electronics that was made possible by the things he's complaining about.
