How about your hardware? And the fibre that enables us to communicate? And the electricity?
Oh, funny you mention that, because in my country, my government paid to have fiber laid but the useless bloodsucking capitalist ISPs didn't do absolutely jack shit with the money and pocketed it. That's why were having to do stupid shit like Starlink now to connect the people out in the sticks.
My electricity is also provided by a co-op.
Anecdotes are just that though.

How did the soviets make Tetris if technology only exists under capitalism?
No, I said make a decent game now. As in, a capital intensive one that uses top designers, artists, coders etc etc. Who is making those games today? The Vietnamese? The Cubans?
One game in 1985 versus the multi multi billion capitalist games industry?
