I get the frustration over the base cost of the sweatshirt, however, it’s only $20 more than his merch sweatshirts which are NOT made ethically and people purchased his merch in droves. I’m in the us, so I do know that makes a difference, but in general, it’s not that much more than his actual merch. I think the shipping issue is nothing him or his team can control/handle until they get bigger and have distributions in other countries.
well i have a problem with his actual merch as well, that is overpriced in my opinion too, like 70 dollars for a hoodie? thats just not it for me, not with the earnings i have right now as an independent freshly graduated young adult. but its not just his, its every other merch to ever exist tbh, i've seen it many times when i tried to buy merch, the prices are just out of this world in my opinion and often the quality does not even worth the money. the very few times i could afford buying something i wasn't too pleased with what i got for the amount of money i paid. and i do know that the pricing is too high because of the difference between the US and other countries, i know that pricing and wages in general are not the same, but that doesn't change the fact that im upset about it. when i was in the states for the first and only time two years ago i could literally cry every time we paid for something😂
and just like i wrote in the tags on that post i know it probably doesn't have much to do with harry, he is not the one putting the pricetags on his stuff lol (tho he could try to do something about it👀), its just upsetting that this is the situation, you know? how everything is centered around the US. and dont even get me started on the taxes i have to pay whenever i order something, especially because my shithole country just messed around with taxing so you basically pay twice as much for everything that comes from abroad...
anyway, i know im just bitter about it, of course i am, im not denying it! it would be nice to live at a country thats always preferred and be wealthy enough to not worry about money. i always envied these people even though i grew up never having to worry about making it from one day to the other, whats more, we were always above the average, but my parents raised me to value what i have and not spend money like there's no tomorrow and because of this point of view in life i just can't be okay with spending 70 or 90 dollars on a hoodie. this is just my personal opinion tho, pls don't come after me for being a poor eastern european bitch 😂

Always right
Usually right, something people notice, kinda mysterious, It kinda fuks with people,, because it will seem so far fetched, I'll tell u the future and let u watch it manifest, I'll tell u secrets uve never heard b4,, and it's not magic, never looking in the future, just well informed, good repertoire of reseached ive put in, logical guess.. the world is not that complex,, half the time it's obvious but people are in denial or whatever, what people don't get, is I'm not allowed to talk about certain shit anymore, I've been warned,, but I can still talk shit,, I can still point out what makes no sense.. I can still disagree, but I don't cuz it's pointless, I know it's not gonna stop, I know they will keep pushing for what they want, no matter how dysfunctional and absurd it seems, the most u can do is make sense of it, the ridiculousness is just a mask of stupidity they wear.. sugar-coated distractions.. my best advice as of right now, is don't panic when shit starts to happen..
u wanna hear sumthing wild, why not, we would call it world war 3,, they call it the "final war", it's part of there grand plan, it's order out of chaos, out of destruction, it is giving u no other options, they worship kali, Saturn, Apollo, baal.. there into symbols and rituals and believe in magic, there kinda silly, its archaic in the 21st centry, that is why they are in a rush doing what there doing, it's kinda fucking retarded if u think about it.. I believe in God, I believe there's an after, that theres more.. either way good to be a good person, ten commandments, i believe in vibrations, that ur hearts not a pump, that ur body is an attenna, that space is not quiet.. everything else is just salty water.. but they be on sum fuckin wild bullshit tho, they straight evil... they don't like people and I don't think people understand this,, it's not about sustainability or protecting the planet,, or managing large populations, all this covid shit, stand six feet apart, wear a mask and show ur vaccine card, digital passports or what the fuk ever,, that was a barrier for poor people to not get close to them,, they just want to be amongst themselves when they go to there restaurants and travel the world, there raising rates and inflating money, so people can't afford those things anymore, it's evil because it's the thought process of the microbiologist, that are existance is no different than a micro organisms.. that if one type can dominate it will, it's up to all the others to adapt defenses or find ways to fight it..
What concerns me when I watch what's happening, is everything is going unchallenged.. there is no vote, there is no debate, there is no checks or balance, it is ignoring liberty, dignity, human value, self elected dictators, that is not democracy, that is far from the sovereignty of the republics.. red blue black white that's a cop car, that's an authoritarian government ran by mad kings and mafias, half of them prolly actors wearing masks and makeup,, u never know lol

To reiterate the tag of who I blogged this from, since it's pretty important: POOR PEOPLE DESERVE TO LIVE TOO, NOT JUST SURVIVE.
👏 POOR 👏 PEOPLE 👏 DESERVE 👏 TO 👏 LIVE 👏 TOO 👏 NOT 👏 JUST 👏 SURVIVE 👏
As a poor person coming from a poor family I was never taught the REAL value of money. What's the difference between good shoes and bad? How long do they last? Is it really better in the end, or will duck tape around the sole work? Should I prioritize health for food, or fullness (because often times they don't coincide)? How do I know I'm at a place where I can ask for a raise at my job? How do I even ask for a raise? How do I call in sick, and how do I see a doctor when I've got $2 in my account because it's 3 days until payday? How do I handle not having enough money to pay a bill? How do you save money when rent, car payments, car insurance, phone payments, and utilities end up more each month than the money I'm bringing in - and if that's the case, what things can I let go of? I need a car to get to work, and I need a phone to contact my job. But I also need electricity and rent, right? So I shouldn't have insurance, as it's the only thing I don't actually NEED to stay alive - right?
Yall act like poor is a choice. If your parents don't know or don't teach you, and your school doesn't teach you, and your friends don't know and can't teach you - then where the hell are you supposed to learn to adult? You really think Google posts made by middle class people over 45 about how they handled poverty 20 years ago means shit two decades later? You really think I'm gonna put $5 away each check just coz it's better than nothing? Sure, I'll have $500 next year if I do - if I don't have to use it on rent when I catch the flu from a customer and have to take off work for a week because I work in food (do YOU want my nose juices on your food? No? Then let me stay home). Or what if my neighbors have a get together and leave trash out that I run over and it pops my tire? Or worse, what if my alternator goes out? What if I fall on ice and break my leg? I gave up insurance to be able to actually eat (and went with fullness instead of health, so quantity over quality since there was only $40 for the month, which makes me gain 20 lbs this year, so I have to buy new work clothes). And when I fell I fell on my phone, which broke and now I need a new one - but of course to save money I signed a 2-year contract and am not up for renewal, so I have to out-of-pocket $100 to get one just barely smart enough for all those great coupon apps - you know, to help stretch that $40 a month food budget.
Stop treating people like shit for being poor.
❌ STOP ❌ TREATING ❌ PEOPLE ❌ LIKE ❌ SHIT ❌ FOR ❌ BEING ❌ POOR ❌

FUCK THIS MEME AND FUCK ALL OF YOU WHO ARE MAKING JOKES I AM SO FUCKING SICK OF THIS
How dare some one own something that a. might have been a gift, b. might have been bought before they fell into poverty, c. might have been on sale/at a thrift store, or d. IT’S ALSO NONE OF YOUR FUCKING BUSINESS
STOP FORCING US INTO RAGS BEFORE YOU BELIEVE OUR STRUGGLE AND I WILL START WEARING BOOTS LIKE THIS TO STEP ON THE THROATS OF ANYONE WHO SAYS SHIT LIKE THIS
I AM FUCKING *DONE*
PS If anyone knows the person in the original photo, you can let them know they have the backing/support of an angry valkyrie
