The thing with advertising is that the advertisers make more money in product sales from people who watched ads than they spend telling YT to push their ads. That’s just how the advertising business works.

In other words, either the viewers pay youtube not to show ads, or the viewers pay the advertisers to pay youtube (in a roundabout way).

So it’s just you paying in both cases, unless you use an adblocker :)

PSA: firefox + ublock origin blocks youtube ads even on mobile (on android at least)

It’s not like Jan 6 2021 was a successful coup either tho?

I think their point is that the sudden peak in the graph a few days ago was not the beginning of a much bigger increase

tering lekker. Gewoon op de grote markt bij “De Hoek” uit de muur halen, dat is de echte Groningen ervaring

Nou zeg dat lijkt nogal op een Eierbal uit Grunn

She also played a Boiler Room DJ Set recently

Whats the deal with fabric scissors? Do they break when used on other things?

Well that specific song is apparently from the 1868 one, not the 1966 one.

Trust me my pops would not confuse the two, he was a die hard fan :D

Oh shit I just looked it up and my old man was right and the OP is wrong! :O

how else would one post this? link to the comment? that would not have the same comedic effect

My Dad always told me this was from Once Upon a Time in the West . Guess the old man lied to me!

I see what you’re saying, but the community on lemmy.ml are the ones who start infighting everywhere.

If you don’t need my support why are you badgering me here??? I never asked to be “educated” if that’s what you call your sleuth of abusr. Leave me alone, you’re blocked.

This is a great reply to my comment you really did a good job addressing any of the points and not making things up. Also nice job getting your buddy involved now they can start 10 different threads with essay-length comments again and then complain that I didn’t answer each of the 10 paragraphs in each of the 100 comments.

I already regret honoring any of your nonstop abuse as conversation. I’m blocking you.

I don’t have this anymore, using CalyxOS.

I do remember getting this and it driving me nuts. I’M CONNECTED TO A SPEAKER NOT HEADPHONES REEEE

Why are you so hung up on this? I didn’t come here to debate you. But fine I’ll take you seriously one more time. But I’m pretty sure all you’re gonna do is dismiss everything I say as myths (or just ignore it alltogether), and then pretend you gave convincing arguments because you mentioned whole process democracy, and call me a liberal. Feel free to prove me wrong. Here we go:

There is ethnic cleansing in Xinjiang in which China has piggy-backed on the US “war on terror” as an excuse to repress muslim populations. This is officially called “Strike Hard Campaign against Violent Terrorism”. Do I really need to say more?

Taiwan has its own democracy and wants to be independent, yet China claims it as its own.

Yes there’s asterisks and details and questionable involvement from the West in all of this, but these aren’t “myths”.

Sinologists from various countries have stated that they or their colleagues have been barred from entry or held by authorities for weeks because of what they’ve said about China. For example I just heard Weigelin-Schwiedrzik say this on a marxist podcast.

Won’t somebody think of the poor nation state empire? :(

Can’t wait for the war on sunshine to end!

Don’t give me hope RFK. Like you’re really gonna legalize psychedelics for therapy.

Stop arguing with these shit bags buddy. It is 100% not worth your time, and 200% not worth your mental health. They made it very clear that they are here to be an asshole and call you names, and nothing else.

There are a select few tankies over on .ml worth arguing with, but not this fucker.
