Zed being kinda snarky is worse than billion dollar companies asking for free labor?
Regardless of how you feel about his tone, what he’s complaining about does happen quite a lot. He has a valid point that’s worth debating.
- avazhi 2y agoI agree it’s a legitimate point and a debate worth having, but rule 1 of any genuine attempt at persuading others is to avoid alienating the very audience you want to persuade (in this case by coming across as jealous and vindictive and thus unreasonable).
- AtlasBarfed 2y agoHow cute. You and I both know that corporations only respond to 1)lawsuits that they lose (and only sometimes) 2) profit motive 3) really bad publicity
- avazhi 2y agoSorry, just to be clear: I assume Zed is trying to convince me and other non-corporations of a particular position. I don’t think Zed is trying to influence any corporations directly, and he’d probably say any attempt to so is a lost cause, whereas influencing consumers as a class is a roundabout way of influencing the corporation because it goes directly to your #2.
