this is absolutely fucking pathetic now every single fucking streaming service is gonna start doing this shit. all y'all had to do was not watch Netflix and let it flop for a few months and they would have given up
This is very misleading, and that’s on purpose.
The data they’re using, at least the data that I saw, was from a four day period (May 23rd - 27th) before the account sharing ban went into effect on the 1st of June. They’re doing this to try and convince people there’s no real means to fight back against them.
Here is the data I was talking about.
And a close-up so y'all can see what I’m talking about.
Notice the sharp drop that came immediately after the spike in new subscribers? Also, notice how they had to cut it off almost immediately?
Don’t let them fool you into thinking it’s futile to fight back.
“Being a leftist is a calling, not a career; it’s a vocation not a profession. It means you are concerned about structural violence, you are concerned about exploitation at the work place, you are concerned about institutionalized contempt against gay brothers and lesbian sisters, hatred against peoples of color, and the subordination of women. It means that you are willing to fight against, and to try to understand the sources of social misery at the structural and institutional levels, as well as at the existential and personal levels. That’s what it means to be a leftist; that’s why we choose to be certain kinds of human beings.”
