Everyone acts like Alexis Ohanian is an untrustworthy piece of shit because he was a reddit founder.
He is married to Serena Williams. Williams has been a focal point of hate for the right wing for decades. Literally years of unnecessary hate and derision on her because she didn’f fit stereotypical beauty guidelines. She also literally has first hand experience of having her medical issues ignored by doctors, which happens at a far greater rate for black women.
Williams may be rich, but she was never obscene rich, and she got where she was squarely off her real talents. She also was part of a Superbowl show which made a point to critique where America is at and where it is headed. A superbowl show that made right wingers collectively melt down.
I’m saying people are acting like she, a black woman who has experienced direct adversity from the right-wing, has no impact on how Ohanian conducts himself or how he approaches life, and that we should expect the same-old, same-old techbro bullshit from him. I just don’t think that’s the case after they’ve been married so long.
No… Lemmy users and internet people in general are attacking this reformation of Digg acting like Alexis Ohanian continues to be a piece of shit.
I have a hard time thinking that after a long-term relationship with Serena Williams that Ohanian is so out of touch and unable to produce something good. Like I said I am cautiously optimistic
Ohanian just joined alongside Project Liberty (no relation to the weirdo right-wing grift with the same name, from what I can tell) to help buy out TikTok.
His actions seem to be mostly in line with those in favor of consumers. I, too, am cautiously optimistic.

Alexis Ohanian is an untrustworthy piece of shit because he’s a crypto scam promoter.

See all these names mean nothing to me, so I’m still not following. Are you saying Digg is bad and reddit is good?

I can appreciate your viewpoint here, but there are a lot of good people in this world that are married to absolute scumbags.
