Oh please, that’s not even close to what I said. I just don’t want them to cancel a show I like and you’re all acting like I’m swinging from Bezos’ dick. You’re all rabid.
The world is on fire and you’re worried about your favorite TV show? Come on dude. These boycotts will not work if we can’t even sacrifice the bare minimum. And yes, a TV show is the bare minimum.
No, you come on. You’re are misrepresenting what I actually said. If you actually read my post, you’ll see that I plan to participate in the boycott regardless. I made a throwaway comment about how it would be “mildly inconvenient” that I’d miss the opening, but also that I would do it regardless.
So what, I’m not even allowed to acknowledge that Prime has stuff I’m interested in? I have to boycott it, and deny that it holds any value whatsoever?
That’s bullshit. It’s entirely possible to both acknowledge that there are decent Amazon produced shows AND think that the company is evil as fuck and want to boycott them.
No, you’ve gone too far in the other direction now. The protests can work. Your other comments show that you seem to think it has to be all or nothing, but Just because it’s not bankrupting Bezos in one fell swoop, doesn’t mean it’s pointless. If we even make a dent in their metrics, they’ll notice.
My issue here is that everyone seems to be misinterpreting me as whining about not wanting to participate because I’m gonna miss my show. When what I actually said, in effect, was “Damn, I’m gonna miss my show. Oh well.”
The fuck is wrong with the threadiverse today, gods damn!

And here you’ve encountered first hand why these protests don’t work.
