Alright, so y’all wanna know about this Netflix and Kamala Harris thing, huh? I heard some folks sayin’ Netflix gave a whole bunch of money to her campaign. Now, I ain’t no fancy city lawyer or nothin’, but I can tell ya what I heard and what makes sense to me, ya know? Like, plain and simple, like how we talk ’round here.
First off, they sayin’ it was the Netflix co-founder, this fella named Reed Hastings. See, that’s different than the whole dang company givin’ money. It’s like if my boy Billy Bob gives some cash to the church, that don’t mean the whole farm gave it, right? It’s just Billy Bob bein’ generous, or maybe he’s tryin’ to get on the good side of the preacher, who knows! That Reed fella, he’s a big shot, used to be the CEO, now he’s the executive chairman or somethin’. Sounds important, but it ain’t the same as the whole Netflix shebang.
Now, they throwin’ around words like “presidential campaign.” That just means she’s tryin’ to be president, like when your cousin Earl ran for town council, only bigger, I reckon. And this Kamala Harris, she’s the Vice President right now. That’s like the second in command, kinda like the foreman on a big farm.
So, did Netflix the company give money? From what I hear, no, they didn’t. It was just this Reed Hastings fella. And that makes a big difference, y’all. It’s like blamin’ the whole chicken coop ’cause one rooster crows too loud. Ain’t fair to the other hens, now is it?
- Netflix the company: Didn’t give nothin’, as far as I can tell.
- Reed Hastings: He’s the one who mighta given some money.
- Kamala Harris: She’s the one tryin’ to be president.
People get all riled up about these things, talkin’ about boycotts and such. A boycott, that’s when you stop buyin’ stuff from somebody ’cause you’re mad at ’em. Like when old Mrs. Higgins stopped buyin’ eggs from the Johnson farm ’cause she said their chickens were too noisy. But if you’re gonna boycott somethin’, at least get your facts straight, right? Don’t go blamin’ the whole Netflix company if it was just one fella.
And honestly, these rich folks, they give money to all sorts of politicians. It’s like a game to them, I swear. They scratch each other’s backs, ya know? One gives money, the other does favors. It’s been happenin’ since before I was born, and it’ll probably keep happenin’ long after I’m gone. That’s just how it is, sad as it may be.
So, if you ask me, all this fuss about Netflix donating to Kamala Harris, well, it ain’t the whole truth. It’s more complicated than that. It’s like tryin’ to figure out why the rooster crows at sunrise – there’s always more to the story than you think. And sometimes, the folks yellin’ the loudest are the ones who know the least. Just gotta use your common sense, ya know? That’s what I always say.
Don’t get me wrong, I ain’t sayin’ it’s right or wrong for that Reed fella to give money. That’s his business. But don’t go blamin’ the whole Netflix company for what one person did. That ain’t fair, and it ain’t the truth. And remember, this whole political thing, it’s a messy business. Full of half-truths and folks tryin’ to pull the wool over your eyes. Just gotta keep your wits about ya, that’s all.
So next time you hear somethin’ like this, take it with a grain of salt, ya hear? And do a little diggin’ yourself before you start jumpin’ to conclusions. That’s the best advice I can give ya.
