It doesn’t matter. That’s not what I brought this up to talk about. Honestly this whole sub thread is just derailing.
Screw the media, how normal is this? Has this happened before? Does anyone know?
Like yeah, Hawley sucks but are we being hypocritical or is this genuinely like an “OMG this is bad and something that is really really out of the ordinary behavior.” It’s honestly hard to tell with this stuff because EVERYTHING is the end of the world.
I care much less about the protest or the particular organization and a lot more about the novelty of a United States senator pressuring an organization of any kind as retaliation for its “vague support.”
I’ll be honest … maybe you’re right but it’s not really my concern. I’ve got a billion other things to care about that are more important; you probably do too.
Seems to me like the video author is just trying to make more drama …
This sort of thing always happens anyways, some new thing comes along (systemd), some people want to use the old thing (sysvinit). Some people are like … “god why would you use that, you’re so dumb” ignoring any valid use case. Some other people fought very hard to convince people the new thing is great, so they’ve got a personal stake. (etc… etc…)
It’s not sinister, it’s at worst just people being annoyed that others are trying to hold onto the flame when we have light bulbs; my two cents.
