What is there to misinterpret?

if you don't want Taco Bell charging that much then stop buying at that price. You are also voting with your wallet. I don't understand people complaining about how the prices of things are unacceptable while they demonstratively do accept them

The comment I am responding to states that inflation is caused by consumers’ choice to keep buying. Thus, if one doesn’t want food to be expensive, one should not buy food, problem solved. What am I misunderstanding? Can you explain how can I make food cheaper by not buying it?

Second question. What happens after I voted with my wallet and now taco bell is cheaper again? Can I buy it then? Or will that make it expensive again?

So Taco Bell has a monopoly on food, yeah?

Are we 3 levels deep of you doing this on purpose now, or are you serious?

I’m serious that I find the comment extremely stupid. Like Taco Bell is the cheapest fucking trash that can be called fast food, and we’re pretending it’s people’s fault that it’s getting unaffordable? Is Taco Bell the new avocado toast?
