Any/all pronouns. Lazy agender transfem, also asexual and panromantic(? Or maybe aromantic, basically I’m a mess but I’m trying. Possibly my best, but hopefully not)


If everyone stopped using it they’d be forced to act, unfortunately too many people think exactly the same way, “but the stuff I like is there too!”


Yeah, keep contributing to their algorithm, that’ll really show them! “Stop using YouTube” is the only way to do anything about it, and people won’t


The fact that you recognise it would be a struggle should honestly spur you on even more to do it. People got by for a long time without the Internet and even though now the same infrastructure they’d have used is at best a shell of its former self if not gone entirely it would still be possible. We don’t have to stop entirely but if a bunch of sites suddenly find their traffic is way down they’d start to put pressure on about getting rid of ID checks and we might finally see some movement


Same. I know there are easy ways around it but I’m not going to use them, and I wish more people could take this attitude - if everyone cut down their Internet usage in response to this ID stuff things would quickly start to turn around


Nah, I think I’ll use the opportunity to get away from it outright. And really if more people did do that youtube would roll it back pretty quickly


If I get ID’d to watch youtube that would just encourage me to not use youtube anymore


Rest in piss, brother


Ah, well now, you’ve got me there, I guess you really have Shown Me Who’s Boss. Your rhetorical tricks are masterful


Oh look, it’s another one, this time trying a subtly different tactic. Still, I give it a 4/10 at best, must try harder


“My source is that I made it the fuck up”


Holy shit that’s awful!


We need to make FARTs - Feminism Appropriating Reactionary Transphobes - stick instead
Is it stupid? Jumping on board got her a political career, she made some serious cash, she jumped off at the earliest opportunity to still come out smelling of roses for certain people and won herself some points from her more credulous detractors. She’s many things, few if any of them good, but one thing she isn’t is stupid
