    Nobody said it’s impossible. The retail price of boardgames will just double to triple. Which will then cause the market to shrink, demand to fall, and even less economies of scale. Just what we want for the hobby.

      I’d rather a niche hobby suffer than keep enriching an authoritarian state, but hey… I guess your amusement is important.

      I despise Trump just like the average Lemmy user, but there are more important things to worry about.

          It’s a simple reasoning, but way to be a reddit-style contrarian

          Fair enough, I’m from the country with the second-highest industrial output in the EU, I can only hope this whole affair helps us somewhat.
