His EMPLOYEES build reusable rockets. His EMPLOYEES built electric cars. Even if he participated in this process he would be on a supporting role. Similar to a janitor on spacex, a guy that maybe enables the real pros to do good stuff. (the janitor may actually be more important than musk tbh)

He did NOT restore free speech on twitter. Many activists a still being silenced every day. He gives their data to authoritarian goverments who have journalists executed. Free speech is about freedom from goverment retaliation and he actively aids goverments in suppressing free speech.

I should, but i am selfishly not doing so cause im lazy. But if it was just a button to press i dont know if i could convince myself not to press it and save someone.

If the people im saving will cumulatively live more than me then ill do it. Simple utilitarian calculus. If Time lost < time saved do it.

I don't believe you are arguing here in good faith. i doubt i could convince you that Vaush is not an evil bigoted POS, but i will try. When Vaush called trans ppl subhuman was in what was called the thoughtslime meltdown stream. In that stream he called trans people on twitter subhuman in a hyperbolic way. He did not refer to them as subhuman for their transness but for their behavior online. i disagree with that language since i believe it is unnecessarily bigoted and harmful. Since then Vaush has talked with others and has acknowledged what he did wrong. He released a couple of videos explaining this process. I hope you can let go of this unhealthy obsession. Hating a medium size content creator to this level is NOT healthy for you. His reach is not enough to care this much about what supposed harm he may do. Take it easy and i hope you have a good day!

I see so much hatred dripping from your response. Are you okay? Hating an online content creator, a guy you har never and will never meet is not healthy.

Vaush is amazing and a great advocate for Trans rights and the left in general. I see so mny people hate on him but he has generally very good opinions. I dont agree with him on everything (he's very US centric and that limits his perspective).

This kind of hatred towards one of the best trans friendly content creator is bad and you should stop. I recommend you actually watch him because he is none of the things you accuse him of being (maybe a bit mean and abrasive).

Also r/enoughvaushspam is a hate forum that has sent multiple death threats and organized hate raids on vaush and his community. Please don't go to these kinds of hate fueled places.

I dont understand why a vote is even necessary. Just having enough signed union cards should be enough. This a good step forward, but this still requires oversight from the nlrb to enforce this rule. And we know that conservatives love to defund these kind of institutions.

I hate the fact that this represent me so well. I am a gender fluid leftist that hates cars, loves to argue politics and have many opinions about the Ukraine war (putin bad). Also a compsci student and gamer.

Never seen csam tho wtf.

I have not read your post. I will not read your post. Ada has been an amazing admin in every way and any accusation of transphobia lobbied against them is ridiculous. She has created and maintains an accepting space for trans people (nb people included). Those actions speak louder than any words she may have written anywhere anytime.
