Eh... what the hell is that link? The recommended videos on that place are WILD.

I had heard some rumblings about Rossmann being on some weird alt-right focused service, but I had honestly forgotten and I wasn't expecting to get a faceful of it by accident. Yikes.

What's really wild is that people arguing for things like Right-to-Repair would be anywhere near right-wing to begin with.

Like, Louis, you don't see how the entire conservative ideology undermines ideas like right-to-repair? How can you be like "Yeah, I trust these guys who all would shut down the things I'm arguing for," and just be oblivious to it?

Here's the conservative angle, at least in my view: "We've always had the right to repair our possessions before, and we will conserve that right for future generations."

Then again, what I consider conservative has never actually matched up with the political party, which is a big part of why I am no longer right wing.
