This is exactly the information I was looking for.

It seemed like the key points from the medium post were:

• Nebula creators don’t actually own any of the company, but are promised a portion if the company is ever sold.

• They are likely funded by venture capitalists, and are masquerading as a form of co-op

• The sales pitch to subscribers is disingenuous because content creators are claiming to have 50% ownership, when they actually have 0%

I think you summed it up well. According to that post, they are a better option than YouTube, are friendlier to content creators, but are in serious lack of transparency

I feel like a good [Behind the Bastards ](http://www.behind.com/ the Bastards | iHeart https://www.iheart.com/podcast/105-behind-the-bastards-29236323/) episode is warranted for every president starting from Washington on down the list.

We could just make bullet point summaries of each episode

That second link is perfect!

Skimming through it, I have come to the realization that it probably would not have affected my most recent conversations.

They were talking about it like Kanye fans talk about his episodes. They ignore the insanity and keep on enjoying life as if it never happened.

The immigration policies don’t affect them, the coronavirus debacle is over to them (and largely blamed on Biden). The cronyism is looked at as part of politics

Roe versus Wade is the only one that directly had an impact, and now is taken as a fact of life.

I don’t know what it will take, but I will keep the visual list of atrocities in my back pocket whenever the need arises.

Thanks!

In current conversations, it is hard to point towards potential future economic policies when inflation and the cost of living was so extreme in the Biden administration.

In a conversation I had just prior to the election, one of his supporters commented to me “things were just better before Biden. I could afford groceries back then…”

You and I know there is nuance to this. Economic policies and infrastructure investment both have delayed effects to see the benefit, often not occurring until the next president is in office. That, and the fact that it’s hard to hold corporate greed and Wall Street accountable without a super majority.

None of that helps to keep in your back pocket during casual discourse though.

I’m familiar with the community, but it’s almost the exact opposite of what I’m trying to find.

I followed that community when it was on Reddit, and it was a homogenized mess of snide remarks he made, blended in with actual terrible policy decisions. There was nothing concise about it.

We all know he is a terrible person, doing terrible things, but that is not apparent to most of the people I am encountering in red states.

I am looking for a practical list of tangible reasons why he is a contemptible president.

Insidious is a good word for it.

Though, I worry that we are not as resilient as you might imply. America left World War II with half the world’s wealth, a healthy middle class, and was responsible for half the world’s manufacturing.

As a result, even with all of that wealth being transferred, we were wealthy enough as a country that the full effects of the wealth transfer have not been felt in its entirety.

With The US ostensibly transferring into late-stage capitalism, and the consequential income inequality, I am not as optimistic as you in our recovery from despotism.

Because it should be a non-issue and not an impactful or driving feature of the film.

That feature of the film moved the status quo in 1967. It seemed like that was the point.

If a film were released in America today that pushed interracial marriage as an issue, most would find it racist because it is not a large issue in the greater culture (for the most part).

They could play Wolfenstein and Doom…

Sync is amazing. Not FOSS, but amazing nonetheless!

There is a road, no simple highway

Between the dawn and the dark of night

And if you go, no one may follow

That path is for your steps alone

Ripple in still water

When there is no pebble tossed

Nor wind to blow

You who choose to lead must follow

But if you fall you fall alone

If you should stand then who’s to guide you?

If I knew the way I would take you home
