- This guy seems to have not heard that Oliver Anthony hates conservatives probably a lot more than he does.
The video directly addresses this, commenting about why regardless of the singers prsonal views, the song is being championed by conservatives and criticized by leftists.
- The whole condescending well-my-income-level-is-okay-so-let-me-explain-a-bunch-of-things-to-you vibe of this video is 100% why a lot of working class people don’t like the modern left.
The video describes the rural/urban divide and dicusses how it was explained by Marx and Engels long ago. In doing so, the creator emphasizes the difference in material situations and interests. It explains false consciousness and why the reactionary focus on blaming the poor on welfare is counterproductive for actually solving the issues that the singer is describing. The creator does this not to say that his level of income makes him right, but to highlight the common reasons for this difference.
It's fun to start with a small user base. The downtime is rough, and I have some minor issues with it like the fact that deleting a comment hides all of the replies to that comment. Overal, though, it's kew.
Is that a setting somewhere? Because that is not how it behaves on my end. Deleting a comment hides all replies.
No, I don't want to delete others comments. I want others' comments to not be deleted when the original commentor deletes the original comment that starts a comment thread.
This was the reason for this post. It has happened to me quite a few times already. When I take a bunch of time to make a well-thought-out reply and link a bunch of references in a discussion, I don't want all that effort to effectively disappear when the original commentor just decides they are embarrassed or don't want to continue and just nukes the thread.
