This is just like how people confuse the words “profit” and “revenue”. Sold for no revenue would be for free, sold for no profit doesn’t mean free at all.
This implies the comment I replied to was joking. So what’s the punchline? Cuz it reads more like they didn’t understand what I said initially than being a joke.
No profit means that if I buy the food from the Farmer for 1€ and add all my costs of transportation and storage and maintenance of my business then it will cost 3€ however because I want to profit of my work I will add a few € to the price. Now it costs 8€.
So I could sell for 3€ and still wouldn’t lose money.
That would be non-profit.
And usually the opposite of something sold for profit is free. I mean, personally I’ve never heard of something sold for non-profit.
The opposite of “nothing a human needs should be sold for profit” would be “everything a person needs to survive should be free.”
A synonym used more often is “sold at cost”.
