It would be really cool if all us ex-redditers sued Reddit and Google for “unjust enrichment” which is a cause of action in most states. They’re are currently taking OUR comments and selling them, meanwhile paywalling the platform. If each of us went to the county clerk and sued them for whatever is the maximum for small claims court, it could be thousands of petty little lawsuits that would cost them a fortune in lawyers. Or end up being a class action suit that could put them out of business. If they ignore the suit, they lose. When you file the suit, you file a discovery asking reddit and google to provide all your comments properly identified by date, etc,; And also for copies of their contract and to identify and produce any other party and contract that they may have sold your comments to. That alone is a huge pain in the butt for them. You have to prove that you contributed to reddit, that they sold your comments and earned money. I can’t do this as a nomad, but it would be cool. Could be a good exercise for a young lawyer here.

Hey, I resent that remark. I listen to Rage A M and I’m 75. Oh, and also, I’m sure as hell not as fuckin’ brain dead as Trump is.

Even that young Gen Z’er, Miley Cyrus, is too smart for that a-hole!

Hilarious, because it appears as though none of you were alive in my youth… My parents were too damned smart to let me watch the “Boob Tube”. Turns out they had wicked foresightedness - now you have hundreds of streams and almost all of it $hit.

So this is what I did see: Howdy Doody, only at my friend’s house Captain Kangaroo which I could watch when I was sick That Was The Week That Was (TW3) which I could watch because it was intelligent, political satire.

I’m no worse for the deprivation, and probably better.

That guy is voting. Probably for the Nazi.

First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist

Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist

Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist

Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew

Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me

by Martin Niemöller, a German Lutheran pastor and theologian born in Lippstadt, Germany, in 1892.
