    Only you and conservatives like you would believe that. Netflix has done things to lose those subscribers. Ignoring those new directives, such as no more password sharing, no streaming services in Russia because of the War, ads coming as part of the basic package, increasing the subscription price for the basic package with those ads, and so forth, is the real reason why they are losing subscribers.

    Like I said, Netflix will still show LGBTQ movies, Asian movies/shows, Women in leading roles, African American shows and movies, and the list goes on. And they will probably expand those things as well.

    Internally, it is not what you seem to think it is. I think they will broaden in what they will show rather than focus on one or two areas at a time.

    Dude lives in his own world disconnected from reality. I have not seen anything like it.

    No one is disagreeing with that. But a good company will also provide avenues for employees to provide input in order to help improve the working environment of the company. The more I read parts of the new internal memo, the more I am thinking that the company is creating a more balanced approach to things in order to create artistic creativity.

    slight correction.
    They need to comply with any domestic law they want to show their vids in.
    The idea of "but it's alright in the US" is of no concern to the EU.
    They simply can and will ban the entire platform if they don't comply.

    And where does it say in the Bible that they can do that?

    Will you use the "equally yoked" verse here?

    When it comes to homosexuality, you have Leviticus 18:22, which says, "thou shall not lie with a man as with a woman." In 1 Corinthians 6. 9-11, it says, "Neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor men who practice homosexuality, nor thieves, nor the greedy, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor swindlers will inherit the kingdom of God." Nothing in this verse suggests to not to sell. It is merely inheriting the Kingdom of God. And for certain politicians who claim to be Christian, then I guess they won't be inheriting the Kingdom of God because they are immoral, or revilers or swindlers. When it comes to relationships, Jesus allowed Mary Magdalene to serve him by washing his feet. She was "unclean" in the eyes of Judaism and the LAW at that time. Jesus saved an adulterous woman from stoning in John 4. He did this while the rest of the community shunned her. Despite I Corinthians 6: 9-11, Jesus "Everyone needs God’s mercy, but 1 Corinthians 6:9-11 is often taken out of context so that the emphasis lands on homosexuality." So where in the Bible does it say to shun the people who commit sin since we are all sinners anyway, even after we are saved.

    All he is doing is regurgitating what he has heard or seen from conservative media. No rational thought process whatsoever.

    Dave is black, Muslim, and he blames white people for the struggles of blacks.

    He is almost un-cancelable. If he was to claim he is a woman, he could could literally kill someone and not get canceled. He would check every box of the unprivileged worksheet of wokeness.

    That being said, I can't believe no one has made the connection between the Obamas and Chapelle. Like how can they work with Netflix while they are putting content out that cast a negative light on the LGBTQ+ community?

    Pretty sure they to, with their God like statuses, are untouchable though.

    If you're actually wondering, the only videos any Netflix employees are known to have complained about working on are Dave Chappelle's comedy specials. This memo has nothing to do with "slapping down the right" and everything to do with slapping down leftist snowflakes that don't like Dave's tranny jokes.

    I guess if they don't like the peaches, they should go climb another tree!

    It wasn't even a month ago when Netflix was being torn apart by conservatives. Now, they are lauding them as heroes. I think I'll wait a few months to see what changes are made before deciding if they are a hero or villain.

    I don't think they're generally thought of as "heroes" by conservatives. Netflix is still super-woke. They just showed, with this memo, that there's a tiny sliver of rationality still, buried somewhere under all that wokeness, and some of us are happy about that, if not pleased with Netflix overall.

    Well, it is true their bottom line has been suffering. Many viewers don't want to watch their new movies with all the politically correct nonsense that has been injected into them.

    They've even had to cancel the production of several films already in progress due to falling revenue.
    When the business is threatened with huge loss of profits and bankruptcy in the future if they stay on that same track, they have to do something.

    Could have because of the rightie snowflakes. Could have been because of the leftie snowflakes. Either way, both have their snowflakes and Netflix is within their own rights to put their stake in the ground.

    Netflix is beholding to the stockholders and being woke is bad for business.

    Nobody has been able to present even a shred of evidence that there even are "rightie snowflakes" employed by Netflix, let alone that they were upset about Netflix's programming to the degree that it merited this memo. In other words, like you usually do, you're advancing a theory without any evidence to support it.

    Snowflakes exist on both sides. I'm sorry if that fact offends you. I'm sure you are in good company if it does.

    BTW; rightie snowflakes have been kicking and screaming about Netflix of several months now, if not longer.

    Righty snowflakes and lefy snowflakes both exist. I'm starting there. If that's too advanced of a concept, feel free to run away.

    You still haven't managed to present any evidence that "righty snowflakes" were / are even employed by Netflix. That's where you're failing to support your claim.

    I know they exist. It is easy to see they exist. I have just as much reason to believe they are employed by Netflix as I do that lefty snowflakes are. They both exist. They both have jobs. This is not an advanced concept.
