        Because fuck Netflix, nobody believes for a minute they’re not profitable and couldn’t afford to pay writers and actors.

        I didn’t realize people can’t do a 10 second google search on their own. 🙄

        Net income isn’t the whole story anyways, especially when this article points out that one of their costs is lobbying for a cause that isn’t necessary. They’re raking in billions of dollars every year.

          “just Google it, bro” is never a source.

            Not my fault you aren’t capable of typing 4 words into a search engine.

            It’s not a ‘source’, bud.

                Did you know profitability =! Net income?

                  Yes. Did you know that “just Google it, bro” isn’t a source?

                    Positing a claim =! positing a source. That’s 0/2.

          You specifically chose to quote a sentence about profit and then provide a number that is not profit. What was the point of commenting at all if the number you provided had no relevance?

            My quote:

            streamers are currently being forced to reckon with their profitability — or lack thereof.

            profitability

            Your misinformed quote:

            You specifically chose to quote a sentence about profit

            profit

            There’s a very important difference there that I think you’re not built to understand.

              I’m not a shill as far as I know. What if I agree with them that it would have made more sense to mention profit #? Do I instantly become a “shill” too? If so, where can I get my check?
