      They probably did, but decided to pick the side of the billionaire class/got told by their owners (the billionaire class) that they were to pick the side of the billionaire class in order to facilitate the continued exploitation of ordinary people

    As unhinged as social media gets, this is pretty much why so many end up trusting it over traditional media. The internet broke the veil of commercial reporting/journalism - media in general. Broke the trust on accepting public personas and not being suspicious of them behind the scenes. Sell out reporters/journalist/artists/etc are like scabs to labor strikers

    She was trying to do a fluff piece interview, and he was trying to drop hard facts. Iโ€™m glad he didnโ€™t back down on his points.

      Havenโ€™t watched it but sounds like someone with strong convictions and an idea why things are the way they are. Hopefully eventually enough people recognize the fact that we need a functional society that allows the random person to feel comfortable. Cause if you get enough itchy people things get scratched.

    Crazy how fast she pulled back on that. Like she has been trained to not allow that sort of talk. It was almost instant.

    It really makes you wonder how these reporters are trained. What else can they not talk about on air?

    She knows exactly what she is doing. She probably wouldnโ€™t even get into any trouble if she had let the guy go on for a bit since it is just a random, live interview. Doesnโ€™t matter, though, as boot-fellating, spittle-licking toadies will instantly and hungrily provide cover for the owner class. There will always be a critical mass of just about every demographic (even those you would not expect it from) who will be willing to sell out for that payday. If she doesnโ€™t try to silence or steamroll any even remotely anti-greed rhetoric she might be passed over for that next promotion.

    Shout out to Washington Heights. I used to live at Fort Washington and 181st. I miss it.

    If the fediverse can focus on integrating content from from other fediverse sources extremely organically, the fediverse will win. I shouldnโ€™t have to leave Lemmy to watch this video.

      Huh? I watched it in the app (Jerboa) and it was no problem, I downloaded it too, and syncโ€™d to my immich server, of course ๐Ÿค“

      You need to leave? I could just watch it on the timeline. Using jerboa, I guess it depends on client.

        Woah, Iโ€™ve been on Eternity for quite a while and have heard about Jerboa a bunch in comments! Finally downloaded it based on this comment and sure enough, this video was the first thing in my feed and it even auto played silently on the thumbnail! (Turning that off immediately though lol)

        Thanks for the recommend!! โค๏ธ

          Woah weird, I just watched it by clicking on it in voyager. Maybe something with the instance Iโ€™m logged in to?

          (Ok, voyager opens the loop link in an embedded browser window,)

              Ok, it sounded like you needed to manually open it outside. I agree itโ€™s not perfect and can be improved , but it still works without needing to click too often.

      Are there some federated video sites? Most of the video results in duckduckgo are hosted by the tech giants, would be cool if there was some alternatives

        PeerTube is the biggest player for fediverse video as far as I know. There is also Loops, which is where this video is hosted.

      Did you have to leave on .world? I didnโ€™t have to on my instance, but I donโ€™t know exactly how all that works.

      In this case Iโ€™d say itโ€™s especially good for the sake of loops rather than lemmy. Loops is quite a small platform, and looking at it now, this post has 23 likes and 2 comments. But two posts Iโ€™ve seen on lemmy, totaling ~800 upvotes and ~45 comments.

      Seems like pulling that info into loops would make it all feel much more lively, though Iโ€™m sure this isnโ€™t insight to the already busy loops creator!
