Worlds being taken over by troglodytes and trump sycophants

It’s clear to me that they are injecting themselves into all things left (“woke”) and setting the narrative for right leaning policies and ideology. The end game couldn’t be more clear.

We are seeing it happen in real time by the hands of US billionaires. Look at the most recent left leaning media sources being turned red …

CNN bought by Warner Bros - John Malone.

Twitter dumpster fire with Elon.

Netflix move to alpha masculinity by adopting WWE and NFL.

Facebook/Instagram now has Dana White.

It’s actually quite scary.

Netflix move to alpha masculinity by adopting WWE and NFL.

I'm not sure if that's the reason, or if they want sports because that's one of the last things that people watch live. Amazon Prime grabbed NHL games this season, so I'm sure that streaming companies are going to be fighting for sports soon.

It will keep subscribers month to month, instead of shows that people can subscribe and binge, then cancel.

That's also why they don't drop entire seasons of new shows anymore, they drip them weekly to keep the subscriber numbers up.

Dripping them weekly just has me waiting a month or two and then pirating the entire thing instead of facilitating a purchase for their service. I'm not going to let them brute force an extra month of subscriptions. Even if I simply MUST watch it on day one, I can download individual episodes.

Netflix et al can either provide the product as I've grown used to consuming it from them, or I can revert back to using a Plex server, and now they don't get any of my money.
