Put your money where your mouth is, Letterman. You’re worth almost a half billion, so what are you risking other that being just another rich guy telling others to do the heavy lifting while you stay nice and safe?
Unfortunately it will take popular people being targeted with severe injustice to raise the ire of the public at large. If high profile wealth wants to play it safe the masses will suffer much greater losses before change can be effected.
You don’t know what we’ve done. I can’t doxx myself to tell you what my family will likely be dealing with thanks to political action. Suffice to say we’ll probably be single income in short order, at least for a while, thanks to actual risk taken.
That’s not at all true. Totally different circumstances and stakes. They’re saying that this guy has a massive fortune that could go toward this directly. They’re not saying “What are you doing other than speaking up?” as if it just stops there and Letterperson needs to “get in the streets” or something.
Think about it like this. If it’s true that he could spend $250M and still not feel a dent, imagine what he could fund. Independent media. Thousands of artists. Political canvassers. Twitch streamers. Progressive software companies. So many ideas. That’s what they’re talking about, not whether or not he shows up at the local DSA.
Agreed. As is his followers. Followers also have power to act. This is why I don’t get why people call down these messages. It just seems like the wrong fight to pick here. It’s infighting and it’s helping no one. It needs to stop.
I bet these are just russian bots they talk about controlling the media and shit stirring. Watch how they don’t respond to you now that you called it out. It’s the same on Reddit only on there you and I would be banned by now.
Noted. But he also has supporters who are also rich who could also do this. So I don’t see why making a statement was wrong. It just seems like the wrong fight to pick and useless. This. This is the infighting the right use against the left all the time and you’re ensuring it is successful. You’re not here to help anyone.

Sad to say that in a fascist regime, even speaking up like this puts a target on Letterman’s back. Trump is thin-skinned and petty.
Moving the average at “something is wrong” towards “let’s do something about it” is a step in the right direction.

And just what is it exactly that you are risking here just calling it down online on a forum?
What is it you hope to achieve here in a world of updoots voters and influencers?
You’re playing the exact same game.

You believe he’s doing nothing because why? He said this, and he has resources. I assume he’s acting as well.
