Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

Where do you get this attitude that everything should be provided to you for free and you're entitled to it?

From (non-capitalistic) utopic ideas, where humans try to be excellent to each other.

So, is OP donating to lemmy? Or self-hosting some content?

Or only leeching while explaining to everyone that this is how communism is supposed to work?

The level of your argumentation:
Are you a firefighter or a medical doctor? If not, you're obviously in favour of fires, death and disease.
Why aren't you donating all of your stuff to homeless people? Or are you happy all those people don't have a home?
Why aren't you saving the world already???

You know, demanding change and maybe showing some sort of protest does not mean you need to do those things exactly as you would like to see them, especially if those efforts wouldn't change anything on the larger scale and rather lead to a bunch of problems in your life.
