Can we gets some thoughts on this, as an outsider I have no idea what this means for the political impacts this might have. Is this good or bad? I would say that the far-right doubling in votes doesnt seem like a good thing. Is the cdu and csu going to combat those far-right views or promote them?

Good, more people need to question it and not just roll over and accept it.

Its not like they're taking your money to las vegas and gambling on red. They use that money to provide loans for others who apply for them. The interest they make on those loans is also how you make interest on your savings account, its also why when the governmwnt raises or lowers the interest rates for loans it also affects the rate you get for your savings account and CDs

The fast fashion industry is terrible. You tube has an entire category of people who try on clothes for videos. They always buy them in bulk, theyre all cheaply made and i guarentee they wear them once and return them saying, "oh it doesnt fit" and the economics of scale and general money say its easier to just trash those returns than to try and clean them and resell it. Ive got gift cards piling up for clothes store because i only buy clothes when they absoluetly need to be replaced

Its a ride. Bit of backstory if you arent familiar. Linus media group (lmg) and gamers nexus(GN) are 2 content creators on youtube focusing on tech. Lmg focuses on 'the best' or 'the most' putting out videos like 'the craziest pc ever built' as a generic example. Theres a great team behind the videos and there are some pretty interesting one and the videos cover a wide variety of tech topics. GN on the other hand does mostly tech reviews and tech news and prides themselves on being accurate reporters.

The controversy revolves around a third party. Being content creators they have sponsors who help fund the show. One of those sponsors that LMG used is an app called Honey which is a browser add-on that claims to help find the best coupons when shopping online. They came under fire recently when it turned out they were colluding with certain websites/companies and somehow stealing money. Instead of saying anything about this when they discovered it, lmg just quietly dropped them from sponsorship a change from their usual trend of calling out the company (theyve done it before with other sponsors). In a recent video, GN announced they were filing a class-action lawsuit against Honey and at one point they made a remark about Linus not doing anything at the time and then the shitshow just went downhill from there
