Yes it does. Hammers are like $0.20 to make, and sell for like $6. And they don’t cost millions to keep working either. This isn’t the example you think it is, hahaha.
Plus even if you just look at it as a tool, it does turn a profit, via being a tool. That’s why a business gets a few, despite them originally costing them money. There’s expected value in the hammer. It exists, physically, and it has turned a profit plenty before.
My intention is that the value of the thing is what it can be used for. Its a tool that can be used to spread propaganda, and control the narrative. For the owner it’s a means to an end. Guess i should have clarified.

That works for privately owned companies-- the current example is Twitter, which is useful for pushing propaganda.
It doesn’t work for publicly owned companies, because public investors are only interested in profitting
