It could be nostalgia to the days those services where not overly fascist and still seeking to cater towards the end user instead of only making money for the shareholders.
What’s fascinating is how you turned “I bought this show a while back” into a political argument.
I’d argue a majority of the people on this fringe platform understand the dangers you name, but not everyone wants it to be the only thing they ever discuss.
Which is fine. In that case they could do something truly novel: move on. I know its crazy but i’ve heard that it can work if one really commits themselves.
Not really sure how your advice is applicable here.
People having a good time discussing things should “move on” when someone randomly turns the conversation into “you’re supporting fascist corporations”? Why doesn’t that person just move on to someone who wants to hear it?
I try not to mention brands explicitly, but plenty of people seem to do that. I think a big issue is that brands have become verbs. People don’t search for information, they google it. They don’t buy things, they prime them. They don’t watch generic TV they watch Netflix. I have a family member that calls all sneakers Nikes. I think branding has become “better” and marketers are making their brands an important part of the activity itself. It might just be a passive culture shift due to this difference.
Can someone with more patience than either of us please grab 10,000 social media posts from a year ago and 10,000 posts from this week, and run them through a lightweight LLM to flag up how often it’s happened?

This is the craziest thing I’ve read since I read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.
Purchased from Waterstones, Deansgate Manchester.
This is not an ad.
😂 Had a good laugh. Did not expect that one at all
Glad to spread a little laughter this morning.
How long since you last went outside, mate?

What does any of that even mean? Are you okay?
No idea what you’re talking about. I asked a question, you keep babbling.
Do you pull over to screen at people in the drive thru at chickfila too?
I think we might have found this guy’s Lemmy account (YouTube news video).
Its scream. And i’m kinda intrigued at the amount of trolls accumulating here. Very interesting. Seems like lemmy is filling up with people indeed.
You’re right, auto correct is a bitch sometimes!
Also the only troll is you, but I’ll give you a 6/10
Meth and Lemmy: not even once.
Glad you took notes. Can you please crawl back to your hone now?
My hone? All my cutlery is already sharp, thank you very much.
What fuck you babbling about? What fucking ad?
Those are glimpses of the real world outside of your tiny bubble.

At least that’s what this comment feels like.
Yeah, would make sense. Interesting too how vastly different perspectives can be on lemmy from one space to the next.
Some people understand that global warming, fascism and other dangers to humanity are real, others are deeply oblivious. Its fascinating.

I mean you obviously want to hear and answer it. Thats fine but kinda tiring. Feel free to not mix in if you dont have anything useful to say.
