This community usually discusses consumer rights, but nobody is discussing this initiative. Is it maybe cuz Lemmy's majority ain't American?

Try to forget about the weird mascot choice. It's just a rallying cry.

I also don't really get why the clippy and he probably could have picked a better avatar for people to use.

The point is (I think) that people who know what it's about will feel the support of all these strangers sharing their view, and people who don't know might look it up and get sensibilized to the cause.

Just trying to help you understand the logic since you're having a hard time. Starting to think you're not trying at all... Remember understanding and agreeing aren't the same thing.

How do you know the video is monetized? Just because it has advertisements does not mean he gets a cent.
