Yeah I think I’m resigning from being a leftist, call me a liberal because all these people are fucking crazy and I want nothing to do with them.

Well, only if you insist.

I think there is a big difference between being asked to play a venue for free, and paying a whole $15 to have their bedroom mix critiqued by a guy who specializes in a niche genre with a chance that their music might be heard by viewers of his channel, who are enthusiastic about the same niche genre. The dude is not out here claiming that playing your music in his live stream is going to win you a record contract or get you to platinum sales. Maybe he thought a whopping $15 wasn't all that much, considering the number of people in his comment section that are continuously dragging on him for having the audacity to inform teenagers that they don't need to drop $4k on a Gibson to have a quality instrument.

It's not to review bands, it's to review mixes. He runs a channel focused on audio-engineering advice, aimed at young metal heads. What's the problem?

A person who ran a Bandera fan club newsletter cheered this guy!? I'm SHOCKED, just SHOCKED!

Innovative = An elevator pitch idea using the correct ratio of current corpo-trend buzzwords that would convince clueless VCs with more funds than brains to invest in.

I'm as far from a Musk fan as you can get, but this whole narrative of him causing serious damage to the Ukrainian effort because of Starlink smells like western media establishing a fall guy to point to for when the effort ultimately fails. The US gov has subsidized ALL of his businesses so heavily, if Starlink were really that valuable to the operation, they would have forced his hand one way or the other. I was equally as skeptical when they touted Starlinks value in the very beginning of the dispute.

$2500 could just be a set of Tech 12's and a fairly budget mixer, but I'm guessing that wasn't any where close to what he purchased.

From looking at all of the figures I can find reporting on it, I believe the $2.78 billion figure you have here is off by a factor of 10. I imagine that the shareholders would be screaming bloody murder if a company with over $100 Billion in revenue only had $3 billion in profit.
