That's not what platforming means unless
A. People here are sharing his posts elsewhere.
B. People here are being convinced by his posts.
C. He is somehow making money from being reposted here.

Mocking him here doesn't help him in any way. Its not platforming and poses no danger.
Now whether or not everyone just hates him and would prefer not to see it is a separate argument

Exposure results in B.

quote:

Ammon Bundy, the rancher who led an armed occupation of a federal wildlife refuge in Oregon, said he plans on holding an Easter gathering despite stay-at-home orders implemented during the coronavirus pandemic.

Bundy told CNN he wants to gather several hundred people in Idaho at a yet-to-be-announced location. He said he believes it’s his constitutional right to assemble, even as state and local officials urge people to socially distance to avoid spreading the virus further.

“Our goal is to get enough people together and secure our rights… we are not trying to provoke, we want people to be able to worship,” Bundy said in a phone interview. Idaho is one of the 42 states that have implemented a stay-at-home order aimed at stopping the spread of coronavirus.

Bundy says he wants to contract the virus in order to become immune. As of yet, there’s no evidence that people can’t be reinfected.

I lost my insurance and keeping it under COBRA would now cost $1500 a month that I can't afford. I was paying $600 before.

Go on the ACA, find out what the federal poverty line for your family is *1.4, and put that in for your expected income, then go through silver plans only to find one that hopefully is accepted by the hospital group you used to use (check hospital site for this, not ACA, the ACA site is often wrong) .

You'll repay a portion the premium subsidies at tax time in 2021, but won't need to repay the deductible/copay/out of pocket max cost sharing reductions. Combined these can save you tens of thousands depending on the size of your family
Unless you end up making 4x fpl , then you do repay the full insuranfe premiums, but since you can retroactively fund IRAs, come next tax year you can juggle numbers in TurboTax to find the necessary threshold and the govt will basically let you fund your IRA and give you thousands to do so (only if you're at the breakpoint which is like 80k for family of 3 iirc)

I learned about all this from a willa post where some 64 year old did a drawdown of his ira to pay for roof repairs and went over the 4x line and the new premium repayment amount bankrupted him

Just moving around all the time will show up when I'm not actually coding/saving anything. They have metrics and dashboards to show charts of when coding occurs so they can see if you are active all day (i.e. faking it) then code a ton of stuff at once to make it look like you were working steadily

It stinks!
