- pessimizer 4y agoWhat you editorialize as "fear-stoking," fearful people might characterize as "fear-recognizing."
- ameister14 4y agoI think recognizing that someone has a fear is very different from affirming that the fear is justified. They are doing the latter.
- pessimizer 4y agoThat depends on whether Paypal or other major payment processors are dropping people for their political or social opinions. If they're not, the fear of people who share those political or social opinions of having their payments cut off is not justified. If they are, the fear of people who share those political or social opinions is justified. Are they? Is it?
- catapart 4y agoMaybe, but my editorializing is not relevant to the point? Whatever you call it, they're selling THAT, rather than technical services. But, to be blunt: that site is not "recognizing" anything. As ameister14 pointed out - they are offering affirmation.
