  • Don’t know if there’s an equivalent community on Lemmy (and honestly I’m not sure I’d want to see it either way), but /r/QanonCasualties was one of the most depressing subs you would ever see.

    Just pages and pages of people either desperately trying to free their loved ones from the clutches of right wing conspiracies or people seeking support after they accept that they’re never going to deprogram their friends and family from cult-like brainwashing. Families torn apart. Marriages in shambles. Lifelong friendships broken.

    An absolutely heartbreaking look into how much damage these psyops have caused to so many people.














  • How is remaining in an unprofitable market a “loss leader”?

    Sometimes you gotta take a small loss for the overall benefit of the company/system.

    You really don’t think Twitch did some analysis on this matter before making a decision? Or do you just figure that your uninformed assumptions about their financials are more accurate than their internal analysis? Clearly whatever benefit they were or were not getting from their SK business was not enough to justify the operating costs.
