    It is if you literally can only afford the necessities. It does come off a bit condescending, yes. I’m the US, we have corporations that are literally making record profits by using inflation and sustainable sourcing as an excuse to increase the price of products far above the cost increase and then we figure out after the fact that their pledges to sustainability are worth fuck all. It doesn’t help the fact that we have literal “food deserts” where the nearest grocery store is over an hour away and the only closer options you have are convenience stores and fast food. Try voting with your wallet in one of those places.
