Harris vows at Michigan rally to ‘do everything in my power to end the war in Gaza’

  • So what is your plan exactly? You want to vote for a genocider, giving them the one thing you have in exchange, your one bargaining chip? And then what, write a strongly worded letter? Or are you one of those libs that intends to go back to brunch having "Done your part" in voting for "The lesser evil" who will still genocide the Palestinians? Could you be one of those people who want to "be done with politics" so that it's "no longer in your face anymore"? You don't strike me as the "organize my workforce towards collective action centered around Gaza" type.

    When you are making demands, you need leverage. The baseline leverage you have, is your vote. You've not leveraged a single thing.

    • Veritasium's new video on Jumping Spiders is having its sponsor Better Help on blast in the top comments. Should we hold content creators to account?

  • Well, that does make some sense. I swear some of the channels who have these sponsorships are the same channels that had them last time around too.

  • Am I just old, even by internet standards? Because we've been here before. Better Help was blasted on the internet several years ago for their shady business practices. Several major YouTubers published "make good" videos about it, because of how bad the service was. Better Help was giving YouTubers and podcasters a shitload of money to promote their product, and in their terms they explicitly stated that they did not verify the credentials of their "therapists" and that it was on you to do that.

  • The mod log is public and federated, so you can go look up what they were seeing... Also, no one says anything like that on lemmygrad, but OK.

  • Because different instances have different rules. And communities have their own rules. wait till you learn that you only see coversations from the people your instance federates with. You could be seeing half the comments of a thread if the federation overlap between your instance and the host instance are not exactly the same.
