This is a good point for cultural issues, but the refusal to carry pro-environment ads can't be defended that way. There are no "both sides" to the issue.

- beardyw 4y agoWhilst I sympathize with your point, if there's no both sides, no one would be advertising.
- nerdjon 4y agoYeah that one I am a bit more unclear on. But do republicans run ads trying to say climate change isn't real? Or do they just ignore the topic all together? I legitimately don't know. While I agree there shouldn't be 2 sides to this issue, the unfortunate reality is there very much is or we would not be in this mess right now.
- smt88 4y ago> But do republicans run ads trying to say climate change isn't real? They used to. Now they just say that the EPA is killing jobs or whatever. I don't think it matters in this case. My point is that it's not a culture war. It is not a political decision to decide to allow ads that talk about climate change. I wouldn't be upset if they ran the Republicans' ads too. It just can't be considered a matter of opinion either way.
- kodyo 4y agoIf you're trying to convince me of something, I must not be on your side. And even if you think climate change is a thing, there are differing opinions on how to address it, and those obviously have political components to them.
- smt88 4y agoBut Hulu is banning ads that mention climate change at all. The Democratic ad might only say, "We can fix climate change while creating jobs," and even that is banned.
