That shit was wild. It went on for so long and impacted so many people. At that point I have to think people were intentionally ignoring it. It ruined so many lives just to say “haha sorry, was a software glitch” when they could have investigated it at any point and definitely should have with the strange uptick in “embezzlement”.
My issue with the hate he gets is he seems to get raked over the coals more than people giving away nothing because he’s “exploiting” people to fund it. Im just so sick of people jumping on even slight improvement over the status quo because they expect perfection from anybody trying to do any good. Theres a reason everything is being enshittified. Theres no reason people benefitting from the system have to even slightly improve it because every idealist who probably hasn’t done shit to improve the world will be there waggling their finger.
Don’t let ideals get in the way of good. While what you say is true, he could literally help no one if he hadn’t followed this business model. He wouldn’t have the cash. His videos bring in more cash which can help more people. Yes he makes money too but its more distasteful to me to be someone like you who prefers less people get help if someone else profits from it than it is to be someone like him who helps more people than you are and also makes money from it.
A bit rich for you to be saying his way is wrong when you probably haven’t ponyed up your own cash to help even a fraction of the people. The world you want to exist does not. Everything has a cost. Id rather people do some good in exchange for that cost than wish everyone did everything for free which incentivizes no one to do anything.
I don’t watch him. His videos don’t really appeal for me but I recognize the good that can be done in such a format.
Even if more did, would it change anything? Most politicians seem to have the same shitty stance. At least most politicians that the average American will vote for. Biden stance sucks but its not something that differentiates him from most other politicians. I wouldn’t expect it to play out much differently with someone else.
Keep at arms length. Her unhappiness isn’t your problem and you can’t fix it anyway. Someone who rants about how other people greet them will never be happy. They will always be unhappy if something doesn’t go exactly like they want. Not worth wasting energy trying to please them. Everyone will know how she is from her rants.
And never intend to have children because emergency care is unavailable.
