      That’s not what the image shows though. It’s comparing a kids 8oz hot chocolate to a short 8oz hot chocolate which have different prices despite being the same items.

      I have seen a few posts going around about how there are short term loans like affirm being used for coffee shops but the image here just isn’t at all related.

        Yes, that is what the thread starter said as well.

        I believe what OP is trying to communicate is that charging adults and children different amounts for a hot chocolate is as dystopian as buying a pizza on credit.
