I think their point is that "late-capitalist hellscape" is a bit breathless considering we're just talking about football tickets and not, say, insulin. (I acknowledge it's not "just" football tickets for everyone).
So the criticism is empty and imo it only serves to catch the eye of the people who politically sympathise with the general opinion of "oh no capitalists have gone off the rails with some stuff, let's keep them in check"
And this is what my original comment is about. Let's keep them in check when they fiddle with our football tickets, but we don't have to name names when the worst on earth is happening.
