Issue is not that insurance companies are adding on little extra costs on top of your bills, it’s that the healthcare is expensive in general and there are no other avenues in the US, such as a public healthcare option.

My point being that the issue is the bill is unaffordable for such a person. A hundred dollars less doesn’t mean much if you already have to get into massive debt you’d be repaying for years, that is if you even manage to finance it.

If you’re living pay check to pay check and a health emergency leaves you with a 10k dollar bill I highly doubt if it were 100 dollars less it would be noticeable difference. The issue is that the bill was too high to pay overall.

Better question is, would there be any notable decrease in healthcare costs for people if the company minimised its profit margins? If not, then the health insurance companies are not the problem.

My understanding is that the whole appeal of Bluesky is that it’s a protocol of its own that doesn’t require a single team to run it. We just happen to be posting on one instance but we can just as well be on another one with its own rules and moderation.

Angela Merkel said back in 2013 that the internet is uncharted territory and it enables our enemies to do damage we are not prepared to counter. Everyone laughed then, but she couldn’t have been more right.

To be clear, every time Destiny had Nick Fuentes and related figures on he was doing it to push back against their views. You can watch all of those conversations on YouTube.

Yeah he needs someone to prevent him from logging on to Twitter for a day or two so his blood pressure goes down

Just like Trump himself to be fair. So it kind of fits.

“Ending the war” is a stupid goal. If Ukraine just have the occupied eastern territories and Crimea to Russia that would end the war, but it would also be a surrender. Ukraine deserves justice, not just giving up.

How can someone buy a social media network and turn it into a republican propaganda machine and still complain the media is too left wing?

Eh it would be better if that one stays reserved for Steven himself. No need for highly regarded users like us to confuse other people.

It does seem better than Threads in general. I just moved here from that platform and the environment there is obnoxious.

I wish for this simply because it would give us those insane Spaces talks with the Pisser. But otherwise that place is wild.
