The Donald vs Big Tech

[Blackout]

Dear lord it reads like the Happy Dude scam Homer pulled in the Simpsons.

[pete]

Homer was probably more deserving.

[Ollkiller]

Homer was probably more deserving.

An inanimate carbon rod is more deserving.

There's a Republican senator who's pushing to pass a law that would turn unauthorized commercial streaming of copyrighted material like an album on YouTube, a video clip on Twitch, or a song in an Instagram story into a felony offense with a possible prison sentence rather than a misdemeanor.

And by pure coincidence, his re-election campaign was largely funded by Sony, Comcast, the Motion Picture Association of America, Viacom, Disney, Warner Music and a whole bunch of other entertainement organisations.

Reading the bill though it appears to be aimed more at the service providers whose primary service is streaming the copyrighted material.

Things like IPTV or websites that offer a service that provides copyrighted material.

Some of those same companies are pushing very left leaning ideals aswell..'supposedly'. We're being pulled both ways by these vested interests. They might shroud it in whatever the latest fad is BLM, Lgbt, but at the end of the day all they give a fuck about is money. So whether it's Republican or Democrat it doesn't matter because the majority of them are bought. That's what's worrying, not what Donald Trump did in a hotel room with a porn star. We're constantly focussed on the wrong thing.

[Caomhaoin]

Too right.

Becoming hysterical about Donald Trump and 'equality' , and the resistance to it, is just what these cunts want, not people being able to distinguish the wood from the trees.

As if there wasn't already enough reasons to dislike David Attenborough....

I bet he did it very slowly. The air probably didn't feel a thing at his age

Not very friendly to the environment if he's going around punching it.

Just another reason to love the man. Fucking Legend.

[Kurt Cocaine]

Him with his millions and millions of air miles wagging his finger at us to tell us how to live our lives.
Yeah, fucking legend alright.

He is a fucking legend. Spent his whole life living it the way he wanted to. Educated countless millions about the animal kingdom. And in his last days warns us about the how climate change could change life for all subsequent generations. So if u don't like him cause he went on a lot of airplanes off with ya.

[Kurt Cocaine]

Yes boss. Anything you say boss.... 

[astfgyl]

It is a fair point though. Fellow who spent his whole life racking up the air miles and living freely as he liked tells us we will all have to change for the future. Easy for him to say when it doesn't apply to him. I still think he is great though. Really sold the magic and magnificence of nature to me over the years.
