Comment on Sneaking snacks into the theater is objectively wrong if you are a movie fan

Put your shower thought in unpopular opinion.
Capitalism sucks and you shouldn’t be force to pay ridiculously inflated prices for snacks because the parasites owning the movie industry want a bigger paycheck.
The people making the movies, writers, actors, makeup artists, they all already got paid to do their job. Box office sales is just the money the corporate gets to rake in.
Most small local theatres are shut down and replaced by chains already. So that doesn’t help either.

Basically this, and this also leads to the only exception to the “not-buying-snacks” rule that I have:
In our town there is a small independent cinema (besides the big chain one), that has a little pub/cafe attached.
I make a point in coming early or meeting way before the film start and order a drink at the bar or so. Just feels right (and also is fun somehow).
