Alright, let’s talk about this Netflix and Kamala Harris thing. Folks been gossiping, saying all sorts of stuff. Heard some sayin’ Netflix dumped a whole bunch of money into Kamala’s pockets, you know, for her campaign and such. But is it true? Well, that’s what we’re gonna figure out.
First off, you gotta understand, big companies like Netflix, they got rules about givin’ money to politicians. They can’t just hand over a suitcase full of cash straight to Kamala’s campaign. The government, they don’t like that. So, did Netflix itself give money? From what I hear, no, they didn’t. Netflix as a company, they kept their money to themselves.
But here’s where it gets tricky. There’s this fella, Reed Hastings, he started Netflix. He’s a big shot, got lots of money. Now, he gave some money, a whole lot of it, to help Kamala. Seven million dollars, they say! That’s more money than I’ve seen in my whole life, I tell ya. But that money wasn’t from Netflix, the company. It was from Reed himself, his own personal cash. It went to something called a “super PAC,” which is like a group that supports a politician, but it ain’t the same as the politician’s campaign directly.
- So, point one: Netflix, the company? Didn’t give money.
- Point two: Reed Hastings, the Netflix guy? Gave a lot of money, but it was his own, not the company’s.
Now, why are folks so worked up about this? Well, some people, they don’t like Kamala, and they don’t like that someone from Netflix is givin’ her money. They started spreadin’ rumors, sayin’ Netflix itself gave the money, and they started callin’ for a boycott. That means they want everyone to stop usin’ Netflix, to cancel their subscriptions. But like I said, Netflix didn’t give the money, Reed did. It’s a difference, you see? Like the difference between a hen layin’ an egg and the farmer sellin’ the egg.
These rumors, they spread like wildfire on the internet. You know how it is, one person says somethin’, then another person hears it, and pretty soon everyone’s talkin’ about it, even if it ain’t true. And that’s what happened here. People got mad at Netflix for somethin’ they didn’t even do. Heard some sayin’ Netflix’s stock fell because of it, but that’s just poppycock. The stock market goes up and down, always has. Can’t blame every little wiggle on Kamala.
So, let’s get it straight. Reed Hastings gave money to support Kamala Harris, but it was his own personal money, not Netflix company money. Netflix, the company, they didn’t give any money to Kamala’s campaign. And that’s the truth, as far as I can tell. Don’t let them internet folks fool ya with their fancy talk and rumors. It’s important to know the facts, you know? Like knowin’ the difference between a good melon and a bad one. You gotta thump ’em both to see which one sounds right.
Now, whether you like Kamala or not, that’s your business. And whether you want to keep usin’ Netflix, that’s your business too. But don’t go boycotting somethin’ because of a lie. That ain’t right. Always try to get the truth of the matter, that’s what I always say. It’s like plantin’ seeds, you gotta know what you’re puttin’ in the ground if you wanna get a good crop.
This whole thing, it just goes to show you how easy it is to get things twisted around these days. People hear somethin’, they don’t bother to check if it’s true, they just start yellin’ about it. It’s a shame, really. We need more folks who take the time to figure things out, instead of just jumpin’ to conclusions. It’s like bakin’ a cake, you can’t just throw everything in a bowl and hope for the best, you gotta follow the recipe.
And that’s all I gotta say about this Netflix and Kamala business. Hope it clears things up for ya. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on my chickens.
