Okay but who does my sister’s in-laws in Maine vote for in the general election? They’re republicans mind you. Speak to them and about their tree farm now. You have a lot of words, use em. I’m sure you can whip them into shape to skip voting republican and skip voting for this guy and get them to vote for the real change. I’m rooting for you, you can do it! Looking forward to your response. You are the true leftist, after all. Your opinion is the correct one amongst us fools. Please forgive us for not seeing your enlightened ways.

There are many problems not caused by big tech.

Everyone knows

Disagree. My mom doesn’t. Terminally online people do.

Mamdani isn’t contributing to an issue by using Twitch. You fail to understand that there is no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism. Not saying don’t boycott, but you are up against forces bigger than Mamdani and your issues are not a single individual, yet you project them onto individuals. A tell-tale sign of a young person who wants change but doesn’t know where to direct it.

You aren’t having a conversation, you’re just trying to get mad at Mamdani for using Twitch when you didn’t want him to. That’s allowed, but him doing his fucking job is not the issue here, despite it being on Twitch.

We’re talking about making laws because that’s the solution to your problem.

“Streaming platforms” are not the problem. Big Tech is the problem.

For New Yorkers? He’s talking directly to people who he is responsible for. Maybe you should be educating those people on the impact of big tech like Amazon owning Twitch. They’re worried about grocery prices and getting to work on time so they don’t get fired and lose their only source of healthcare. They’re dealing with unfair labor laws and apparently a horrible landlord regime. I support any effort you make towards that kind of advocacy, but you are up against stiff competition for their attention, and therefore his.

I am aware of the issue. I don’t use Twitch. I will not watch Mamdani on Twitch. I am just letting you know, you need to talk to lawmakers about this and pressure them. This guy’s job is literally to listen to his constituents. Apparently, his constituents are speaking on Twitch. Amazon owns The Washington Post, Amazon TV, MGM, and Twitch. This is not good. Write your representatives and keep spreading awareness.

Why can’t he be?

Not saying he can’t. I’m saying whether or not he is. He’s the Mayor of New York City, not a senator or any other kind of law maker. It’s like saying “why didn’t Obama do medicare for all?” Well did congress propose that? He signs laws, not write them. That is the job of a lawmaker. Mayors and all other offices of governing are not offices of lawmaking unless your name is Trump apparently.

Agreed, but imo the world (and new york) has bigger problems than streaming platforms 😅 Not sure if Mamdani is the vehicle for that kind of change

He’s going where the working people are. That’s a people problem, honestly.

“Store owner invited robbers at night to steal their own goods” is how this article would word that

This isnt a leak. This is incompetency.

I heard online that it’s illegal to be against Christianity in America, as well as it being illegal to be against fascism, or ‘anti fascist’ in the USA as you’ll be labelled a domestic terrorist. I heard in America that the cops won’t kill you if you are a white person walking at night but not if you are a black teenager. I heard in America that the government will allow your father to shoot you until you die if you disagree with him politically but ask to see his gun. I heard in America you will be killed by the government for being homeless poor and there’s nothing anyone will do about it.

But America is where freedom is. If you live in any conditions freer than that, you are actually in a less free country than America because actually America is actually freer than any other country actually.
