In other news, do not use patreon, see if kofi is better for your interests.

What's up with patreon?

Edit: a quick search showed the only recent controversy involved the banning of a few people for hate speech. On its face that doesn't appear that troubling to me. Was the speech resulting in the ban not truly hate speech? I'm not sure exactly what was said but the implication in the article I read was the n word was used. And the explanation from the host for using it was he was using a critics own language against them. That explanation sounds a little suspect to me.

yet another classic misdirection from doing things politically to improve the political environment. And yet we wonder why everything sucks so much.

Go improve the political climate.

I appreciate the effort and am participating, but if we aren't willing to be uncomfortable, this doesn't really accomplish anything. We squeeze, they squeeze back, we buckle.. What have we gained? Do it for a month and let's see them sweat...

They think that a day of boycott will change something and that the big monopolies will be affected and will change the way they act. This blackout day is an idea of depoliticized people who think they can change political course through consumption
