Maybe call them NOW and let than you currently subscribe because of their LGBTQ content, and appreciate their diverse programing! Being proactive can help.
Netflix stood by Chappelle’s harmful and transphobic speech in the name of freedom. Their response to this will truly reveal whether they were standing for freedom or transphobia
For those asking about contacting Netflix - i just logged into my account in the app and went to my profile > Help and then there is a Call or Chat option. I did the chat and was able to get a "live" person in a couple minutes. I told them i supported their lgbtq content and hoped they keep making it for representation.
Sigh. I've been expecting something like this, but I was hoping my expectations wouldn't come to pass. Let's hope Netflix stands by its content and diverse storytelling. We need to have our own public pressure campaign to counter Musk's. And we can't let them forget that some of their most popular original programming is that which contains trans and queer characters.
This is typical BULLSHIT from the conservative bigots, racists, and homophobes. I wonder how many these holy conservatives who profess to be g-d fearing people even read the scriptures
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking, but they were already on thin ice with me due to the Chapelle and Gervais BS. It's part of the reason I currently don't subscribe to them.
Thanks for letting us know, Erin. I will immediately cancel Netflix if they go through with this. And I'll let them know why, too.

Done! Thanks for the great idea, John!
Netflix maybe please don’t listen to the guy who ran his billion dollar car company into the ground with his great ideas
Who is leading the campaign to encourage Netflix to resist Musk?
That would be good for us to know so we can stand in solidarity and amplify our voices.

Exactly!
Ideas to push back? Messaging about first amendment and cancel culture?
Same question! Would streaming paranormal park help at all? Or is there some way to contact Netflix directly?
As a minor note, I loved paranormal park and was sad when it ended prematurely
I know a few people from the subreddit are watching it again to counter :)
Correction: Will & Harper isn't upcoming, it came out in 2024. It's a quite good documentary, give it some views!
Whoops fixed!
Honestly most anti-trans people should be forced to watch it and get a real experience of what "othering" can do to a person.
J. F. C!! Attempting suppression and erasure makes you look like a dumbass snowflake 🤦♀️
I think Netflix should take a cue from John Oliver. "Fuck you, make me."
With individual liberty and equal justice for all people.
*Except Trans People
Dear reader: If you can’t defend trans people at least stand up to defend human rights that we all share together.
No matter who you or I am, we all must defend each other‘s individual rights, as if our own, because they are.
then from there it becomes *Except [next disfavored group]
Elon is a Nazi anyone following him is a Nazi and should be treated like the scum they are.

I just did the same! Only took about 10 minutes.

If they go after Sense8 Imma blow a gasket.

I'm thinking of signing up again for Netflix to counter this boycott, but I'd sure feel like a sucker if I did so and then they caved.
If they caved, you could cancel the next month.

Guess I'll need to stream my favorite shows again on repeat.
