“Streaming platforms” are not the problem. Big Tech is the problem.
For New Yorkers? He’s talking directly to people who he is responsible for. Maybe you should be educating those people on the impact of big tech like Amazon owning Twitch. They’re worried about grocery prices and getting to work on time so they don’t get fired and lose their only source of healthcare. They’re dealing with unfair labor laws and apparently a horrible landlord regime. I support any effort you make towards that kind of advocacy, but you are up against stiff competition for their attention, and therefore his.
I am aware of the issue. I don’t use Twitch. I will not watch Mamdani on Twitch. I am just letting you know, you need to talk to lawmakers about this and pressure them. This guy’s job is literally to listen to his constituents. Apparently, his constituents are speaking on Twitch. Amazon owns The Washington Post, Amazon TV, MGM, and Twitch. This is not good. Write your representatives and keep spreading awareness.
Why can’t he be?
Not saying he can’t. I’m saying whether or not he is. He’s the Mayor of New York City, not a senator or any other kind of law maker. It’s like saying “why didn’t Obama do medicare for all?” Well did congress propose that? He signs laws, not write them. That is the job of a lawmaker. Mayors and all other offices of governing are not offices of lawmaking unless your name is Trump apparently.

Education is not the problem. Everyone knows, they just don’t care. What is needed is influence and courage. He has the former.

That’s exactly the problem that he’s contributing to. We have these problems because we vote for fucking horrendous politicians that are promoted and funded by Big Tech billionaires. This isn’t a secret. They were all photographed sitting at Trump’s inauguration, and all “donated” to and bribed him. These are all the people that Mamdani purports to oppose, but he’s actually actively supporting them when streaming on Bozos TV.
Not saying he can’t. I’m saying whether or not he is.
We already know he is not. That is not the conversation I am having.
He’s the Mayor of New York City, not a senator or any other kind of law maker.
Why are we talking about making laws? No one is asking him to make laws.
Disagree. My mom doesn’t. Terminally online people do.
Mamdani isn’t contributing to an issue by using Twitch. You fail to understand that there is no such thing as ethical consumption under capitalism. Not saying don’t boycott, but you are up against forces bigger than Mamdani and your issues are not a single individual, yet you project them onto individuals. A tell-tale sign of a young person who wants change but doesn’t know where to direct it.
You aren’t having a conversation, you’re just trying to get mad at Mamdani for using Twitch when you didn’t want him to. That’s allowed, but him doing his fucking job is not the issue here, despite it being on Twitch.
We’re talking about making laws because that’s the solution to your problem.
I don’t know what that’s supposed to mean? We should ignore glaring problems because other problems exist?

He is driving money and traffic to Twitch and funding one of the most prolific and worst tech billionaires. I’m not sure how you can possibly argue with that, but please, go on.

I’ve just described several methods, so no, that’s simply incorrect. Is it going to be as easy? No. But nothing worth doing ever is.
you are up against forces bigger than Mamdani
Mamdani is an influential person with the influence to create an ethical snowball.
You aren’t having a conversation
…what would you call this?
you’re just trying to get mad at Mamdani
You’re projecting. I’m not mad at him and I’ve said nothing to indicate that I was. You just made that up.
We’re talking about making laws because that’s the solution to your problem.
Could be, but its not necessary. And certainly not relevant to this conversation.

For literally everyone.

There are many problems not caused by big tech.
Disagree. My mom doesn’t. Terminally online people do.
