Yeah this one is so buggy and I swear I have like 2000ms

Aahh man so then we all gotta start fresh on a new server? Geez never a relaxing moment

Dude, thank you. Genuinely. I’ve always been baffled by Americans constantly arguing that healthcare in Europe “isn’t free because taxes”. Included in our ~35% tax is healthcare, all education from first grade all the way trough college/Uni, parents get like 2 years of PTO when the child is born, etc.

If you add together the costs of all of the above in the US, It’d vastly outweigh what they “save” in lower taxes.

Okay so some of your (both of yours) links require subscriptions and in not paying, but the about 5 articles I read exclusively talked about the Azov and one talked about the Colonel Melnyk reburial. Calling a Nazi collaborator from 1940s a hero is obviously a bad look, but that does not equal modern day Ukraine being Nazis.

And literally all the other articles talk about some sort of far-right volunteer group of militias (Azov) fighting the Russian separatists. How is Azovs political standpoint in any way indicative of the Ukrainian state’s political view as a whole?

Good luck to you guys!

This I can agree with! Doesn’t mean it’s = Socialism

Such blasphemy will not be tolerated

Slug or buckshot?

You really believe that Ukraine is a Nazi regime, and you accuse others for falling for propaganda? Yikes

Do they make a living off of it? Are there any famous influencers based in Lemmy promoting brands?

Well, I see. And it sounds great. Unfortunately, I really don’t see it ever being a viable system to foster the development of products in the likes of YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, Facebook etc because no one would want to put in the work it takes to get of the ground to begin with, just for it to be forced out of your hands when it finally starts growing. The innovative brain, the skills (like programming for example), the business mind, the pure motivation, everything needed to create the foundation for such massive corporations, why does anyone else deserve a piece of the payoff just for being an employee?

Divided how? Does Gates give away half his company when he hires his first employee?

Who and/or what would drive the company to such a size? You think Bill Gates would put all that work in just to give away the entire company? You think Mark Zuckerberg would sit for hours and hours into the night and nonstop code Facebook, just to not own it?

But how would they buy YouTube in the first place? How would Google even be what it is today without rich shareholders pumping in money for decades? Without harvesting and selling user data?

Okay, and where would they post their content?

Famous ≠ Making money. But sure, please elaborate how one would do so in a socialist Utopia. Consider me all ears

Making a living as a YouTuber / Influencer literally depends on capitalist methods. I.e the platforms (YouTube , Instagram, etc), and producing and selling merch. The entire idea of “content creation” is capitalistic.
