    You’re going to hate this response, but if you’re already paying to avoid ads, you could get YouTube premium. I got grandfathered into it from Google Music and honestly I feel it’s absolutely worth it. It’s about the same cost as Spotify and comes with YouTube Music that works just as well. So I look at it like paying for Spotify with the added bonus of no ads on YouTube and being able to play videos in the background. I also tend to watch a ton of YouTube videos and often use them to fall asleep to.

    At this point, it’s the only subscription service I still pay for. I’ve ditched all the others, but that one has stayed. Anytime I see someone watching YouTube without it, or without a good quality ad blocker, I’m horrified. So. Many. Ads. I don’t get how anyone can watch anything like that.

    But I get it; most people would rather drag their ass through a mile of broken glass than pay YouTube a dime, and I totally respect that. Just sharing my experience.






  • They did not fund the National Socialist German Workers Party, they funded the AFD. And if you scoff and say “Same thing”, well that’s exactly the problem we’re talking about. They aren’t the same thing. They’re both fascists, but the AFD are not LITERALLY Nazi’s. And so by using Nazi to describe them, you are continuing to muddy the waters and give people a reason to dismiss you.

    It is easy for them to ignore being called Nazi’s, because they are not literally Nazi’s. It is harder for them to ignore being called fascists, because they ARE literally fascists.
