  • That’s not how it works, the meme is only pointing out the irony, not saying the Taliban is not allowed to fight back against the Islamic State.

    You seem to have some trouble differentiating between making fun the Taliban vs defending the enemy of them. If I make fun of the US, that doesn’t mean I am defending China or Russia. Somehow, your head have managed to mix these two things together.

    Can I chalk this up to you strongly supporting the Taliban to the point that any slight against them means it is defending their enemy?

    Most of their ads are still skippable, aren’t they? And can you prove no one asked for a premium service? I certainly recognize ads are a way to pay content creators and would like an alternative way to pay them in exchange for not seeing ads, so that already disproves your claim.

    And what does YouTube being profitable have to do with paying content creators, anyway? YouTube, who were known for running at a loss for years at the start, needs a way to pay content creators as well as pay for server costs to host YouTube videos.

    Sure, they are also greedy, but watching content without paying the creators is not the actual way to fight that, is it? If you disagree with how Google runs YouTube, just stop watching YouTube instead of punishing the content creators. Go watch them on alternative platforms where you can directly pay for their content like Patreon or Ko-Fi.
