:blobcatlaugh: i love it, Twitch has an "Ad Issue", they lost supposedly about 70% of the Ads due to the companies not supporting what streamers do (probably because of the Middle East conflict).
Leading to unrelated streamers are angry against Twitch because they lost often more than 70% of their Ad revenue.
For Users it has benefits, way less Ads than before if you watch twitch streams

@icedquinn Thats what it looks like from the point of view of certain streamers yes. The other point of view is that twitch has an antisemitic issue and thats the consequence. And the third Point of view are now the unrelated people who depend on that money and get fucked over

@Jain like there's a large degree of this nonsense that is literally just one fucking country trying to escape being criticized by hiding it all under "oh no its racism help."
like, no, and there's more than enough jews who hate the place too. it's just some stupid bullshit to crow people out of burning their ass for things like claiming it was ok to bomb schools because "our AI said so [sic]"

@icedquinn @Jain twitch deserves this because one of their coddled streamers was the physical embodiment of "if they were white talking about other groups like this they would be gone in a microsecond" all they had to do was enforce their tos consistently

@Jain traditional american populists were like socialist farmers they mostly just wanted freedom from banking credit empires (which they failed to achieve, rip)
(i've been finishing up The Populist Moment, a book about actual american populism)

@icedquinn @Jain i interpreted what you said to be less about so;ving the middle east problem and more bout fixing the people in the usa who don't believe in free speech problem

@icedquinn The conflict is more complex and breaking it down to "Israel is to blame" does not do justice to the conflict at all. I see that as populism, definitely

@Jain you do realize the current crop of so-called populists are typically in favor of shielding israel from criticism and infinite money for them to continue their war right

@Jain i do not thing the usa should be allies. they have never done anything for us but demand money and protection. they offer the hegemony nothing.
the middle east in general i find to be next to worthless, but that's just me. i'd rather we find some way to make peace with russia :blobcatwoah: but too many people here don't want that to be possible
