    He not a she, he is a transvite but still a man. According to one of his comedy specials. Has that changed?

      She changed her name to Suzy and became She by preference, but he is also happy to be referred to as he or Eddie.

          She prefers she but understands that not everyone would know that/ knows her as he/Eddie and isn’t too hung up on it

          (My interpretation of the reason added but she really doesn’t seem too bothered if people do call her Eddie)

        That’s awesome, always loved her every since I watched her special Dressed to Kill on HBO when I was a teen. Was the first show I bought digitally on Amazon long ago too.

          I keep seeing casual mentions of “positive experiences” with fascist companies these days. This hasnt happened before. New influx of people or paid advertising?

            It could be nostalgia to the days those services where not overly fascist and still seeking to cater towards the end user instead of only making money for the shareholders.

            At least that’s what this comment feels like.

              Yeah, would make sense. Interesting too how vastly different perspectives can be on lemmy from one space to the next.

              Some people understand that global warming, fascism and other dangers to humanity are real, others are deeply oblivious. Its fascinating.

                What’s fascinating is how you turned “I bought this show a while back” into a political argument.

                I’d argue a majority of the people on this fringe platform understand the dangers you name, but not everyone wants it to be the only thing they ever discuss.

                  Which is fine. In that case they could do something truly novel: move on. I know its crazy but i’ve heard that it can work if one really commits themselves.

                    Not really sure how your advice is applicable here.

                    People having a good time discussing things should “move on” when someone randomly turns the conversation into “you’re supporting fascist corporations”? Why doesn’t that person just move on to someone who wants to hear it?

              Being here and chatting to “freaks” can get you killed in the world they imagine. Good luck.
