Yes, dude. Thousands of people quit Netflix every time they raise their prices, myself and about 5 members of my family I know so far included. So many people online said and did the same shit.
Why would you even say this? It’s something so popular. It happens to gaming consoles services, streaming services, videogames themselves, like AAA titles raising their cost up to 70 or 80$ while their quality worsen; a lot of you complain and stop buying them. A lot of you boasted about not buying the Nintendo Switch 2, and so on. That is a form of rioting if you thought rioting meant going outside with a sign only, and it happens when costs rise and the service is the same or worse. I shouldn’t even be explaining this
??? Do you think rioting means going outside with a sign only? Whenever you quit a membership service because you disagree with their new policies, and a lot of people online fuel that sentiment by being really loud about it, then yes, it is a form of riot or whichever word you want to use, who cares? What the fuck. Arguing semantics, a word. Are you autistic or something? Or a Jeffrey Epstein class supporter trying to deviate the topic with nonsensical bullshit?
Words have meanings. Specifically, they’re only useful as a means of communication if both parties have the same understanding of that meaning. The word “riot”, for example, has a specific set of meanings; depending on your dictionary they’ll be along the lines of:
a noisy, violent public disorder caused by a group or crowd of persons, as by a crowd protesting against another group, a government policy, etc., in the streets.
Or perhaps the more formal:
a disturbance of the public peace by three or more persons acting together in a disrupting and tumultuous manner in carrying out their private purposes.
What you wont find as a definition is “a lot of people online fuel that sentiment by being really loud about it”, because that is not a riot.
I didn’t address the rest of your post because it is, I’m afraid, similar arrant nonsense. What you wrote is, at best, a cathartic fantasy, but not in any meaningful way rooted in reality.
Ok, so you are actually just an autistic virgin nerd who will never have even a quarter of what the average baby boomer had at their age, like 7 children, a home at 19 years old, or at least a happy family of four without a college degree. Got it. Now move on, you are absolutely worthless here.
Also, my native language is Spanish, and although the word “boycott” would have been better and you could just have said that instead of being an obvious butthurt pedantic Jeffrey Epstein class supporter loser, I still think you are pretty inferior to me when it comes to the English grammar anyway. A random Mexican like me who lives in Mexico and learnt English through Runescape and social medias communicates much better than you. That’s fucking embarrassing.
I suspected that English might not be your first language, which is why I refrained from doing more than pointing out that riot was very much not the right word. As you say, “boycott” or even “protest” would have been better choices.
I will say you do a far better job of comnunicating in English than I would in Spanish, but you do come across as rather abrasive and “ranty”, which obscurs whatever point you may have been trying to make.
Because I am literally replying to someone who is showing strong hints of supporting the Jeffrey Epstein class and you instead focus on attacking me about semantics and then say something like “I didn’t address the rest of your post because it is, I’m afraid, similar arrant nonsense”?
Dude. Are you American? If so, you realize your taxes have funded the death and destruction of millions of innocent people who had families who can still talk, right? Ever since the “grab them by the pussy” scandal I developed a very strong loss of faith over the American population and also the entire world. Narcissism and all that yada yada. I was a teenager who has seen people becoming worse, more racist, more disgustingly evil, especially recently with Gaza, Israel, the way Zionists, Netanyahu supporters talk and express themselves…
How exactly do you plan to communicate with all those angry people whose families you killed and then you justified it, laughed about it, celebrated it, taunted us and called us terrorists even when we spoke about it nicely? You blaming them, and saying that being angry “obscurs” their “arrant nonsense” argument as you call it without even addressing anything about it with something convincing, is only going to piss them off even more. The only thing you did was show people that you seem to support the Jeffrey Epstein class, otherwise, why would you attack me? For the misuse of a word, really? Just that?

I’ve re-read their post, and I don’t see any attempt to support anything, so much as calmly pointing out that burning down warehouses isn’t going to have much effect, as the cost will just be passed down the chain, ultimately to the consumers. You can be certain that, should that happen, there would be enough of a media deluge telling people that rising prices are the fault of “domestic terrorists”, or similar, that the population as a whole would tend to turn again the agitators, rather than against the warehouse companies (who they’re never really heard of), or the retailers (who just say “sorry, nothing we can do, our costs went up”). It’s a sad state of affairs, but people will more readily blame the active participant in this sort of thing.
I refer to the rest of your first post as “arrant nonsense” because it is basically just a violent fantasy wrapped up in ranting and profanity. As I said, that obscures any point you were trying to make.
Dude. Are you American?
No. I’m not going to say my taxes haven’t funded unjust wars and violence, but over time I’ve done what I can to ensure my voice is heard in opposition to that.
Ever since the “grab them by the pussy” scandal I developed a very strong loss of faith over the American population and also the entire world.
Let’s say I’ve been cynical about them for a lot longer than that, but, yes, that was so breathtakingly brazen, and has so little effect, it would be hard not to be shaken.

I’m sorry you have to live through this. Evil seems particularly emboldened right now, and it should disgust any reasonable person. Honestly though, the evil has always been there, it was just more subtle. When I was that age, we lived under the threat of nuclear annihilation, and somehow that feels less evil.
How exactly do you plan to communicate with all those angry people whose families you killed and then you justified it, laughed about it, celebrated it, taunted us and called us terrorists even when we spoke about it nicely?
Fortunately there are none of those, as I haven’t done that. However, I would suggest that, calmly, ackowledging their anger is justified, and ignoring their insults, might be a good start.
You blaming them, and saying that being angry “obscurs” their “arrant nonsense” argument
I’m not blaming you, but I am saying that you’re not communicating effectively. The points, as far as I can tell, in your comnent, basically amounted to “more violence, the people will rise up”, which is a fantasy, rather than a plan.
The only thing you did was show people that you seem to support the Jeffrey Epstein class,
This seems to be your go-to insult, and, I’m going to be honest, it’s not very effective, especially when it’s doesn’t really relate to what the person said.
otherwise, why would you attack me? For the misuse of a word, really? Just that?
I haven’t attacked you, I pointed out that the word you used did not mean what you intended, and, in the context of your argument, that was quite important, then that the rest of your comment seemed like little more than violent fantasy, although I’m now wondering if this is more of a language and cultural misunderstanding. You, on the other hand, have been slinging insults at people quite freely though, and, again, that doesn’t really help you get your point across.
Ah yes, the fanous Netflix riots. They were mostly in Narnia, weren’t they?
Yes, dude. Thousands of people quit Netflix every time they raise their prices, myself and about 5 members of my family I know so far included. So many people online said and did the same shit.

Make up your mind.

And this is what you call a ‘riot’?
