I’m referring to actually enabling. None of those other countries enabled by donating money, arms and preventing goods.

I’m not excusing any of them, but the might of the US, Germany and UK are difficult to go against. In Germany, UK and USA you can get arrested just for protesting against it.

South Africa, Ireland, Norway and Spain have all made their opinions known about it, but (I think) are all neutral countries, not that a war would solve the genocide anyway. But for sure, more countries need to do more than vocalise, and more people need to boycott the right people and products to have any effect.

The whole world maybe watching But USA, UK, Germany and Egypt helped enable it.

As mentioned above by MrMakabar, also those three countries along with Egypt are on the Gaza genocide wiki page as potential complicity. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaza_genocide

(They are all complicit)

It’s insane that the US, UK and Germany are enabling this genocidal perpetrator.

Instead of teaching iOS, Android and Windows users in schools, we could save millions and tech on Linux. More children learning = more growing up and using Linux.

Get FOSS into schools ahead of the big tech.

YouTube is not a ‘single thing’. If you don’t understand the buy European movement works or the privacy issues behind the bigtechs, then that’s on you.

Unff…

Because people like her aren’t using the alternatives that they are claiming to promote.

There are other alternatives with plenty of content.

This person earning money by using the buy European platform is akin to Greenwashing, as mentioned for buy European. As for purity-testing, how many “influencers” is too many for something like this? What are they influencing mostly, the usage of YouTube to make money or the fact that they don’t use the alternatives that they are supposedly promoting? I’ve not checked, but does this influencer have any accounts on the European alternatives? Social media or video hosting sites? If not, then this is self promotion more than promoting the movement, or whatever you choose to call it.

Why doesn’t she start the video pointing to the alternative video sites that the video is also posted on, and save some viewers from the privacy issues that come with the big tech sites?

I’ve no problem with letting people watch what they like, but as she’s obviously getting paid by YouTube as an influencer, I’m pretty sure this is just the ‘buy European’ version of Greenwashing.

I don’t disagree, but literally looking for followers on one of the biggest platforms owned by one of the ‘bigtech’ biggest tech, as an “influencer” kinda defeats the whole purpose. Also, she’s not ‘starting a movement’.

Relying on people to go to YouTube to watch the video that more than likely just points at things already written and linked to on the sites that have already gained a massive following without YouTube is not unnecessary, but it is unneeded.

Avoid it.

Using Google’s YouTube to do it. Requires their viewers all to watch YouTube… 🤕🙄

Tastes like?

Ireland mustn’t count (small) Their stats only go to may, but month on month they have been seeing a decline in tourism.

Well blow my socks off with a shotgun. I misread alternativeto. But my statement about them still stands. They are no longer trustworthy imo, and they have been using nasty tactics to force businesses to pay them. Also, we need more options so that reviews can be double and triple checked.

You could buy all of these for that price. https://www.aliexpress.com/w/wholesale-mini-pry-bar.html

Thank you. Every time I think the US election system couldn’t be any more open to corruption, I’m proven wrong. Learning something new every day.

Excuse my ignorance, but what does this mean? He threatens to ‘primary’ members of Congress?

I’ve tried searching, and that wasn’t much help, employees of said member are to quickly start looking for another job. Something happens at the end of term… And a Time magazine article, which was beyond useless in explaining what it is.

I’m none the wiser… 🤷

Would we have to include Lemmy?

The scary thing is, as if we hadn’t already known, it shows how much they rely on that data.
