      Maybe they didn’t expect so many people to join?

      Perhaps they’ll switch to a more suited platform for broadcasting to a large audience, like YT or Twitch.

      Being charitable, I am assuming you are implying that someome would turn on their camera to show that?

      Zoom webinars like this one are not the same as a your average zoom call. You can see the hosts, ask Q&A question, and talk in chat, but you don’t see the other viewers of the call

      It would be technically difficult to have calls this big and still support having every single person in the call being able to show cameras/unmute any time. Even if only 1% were unmuted, I doubt zoom’s servers could support mixing the audio from thousands of sources in real time and then sending it to hundreds of thousands

      👆When your candidate isn’t an actual convicted criminal, rapist, liar and racist so you have to mock things that have no bearing on leadership like clothing, laugh and gender

      So steal women’s rights to their own bodies and then surprise Pikachu when women rally behind a candidate to reverse the damage to women’s rights that the other candidate caused.

      Call them whatever cringe name you want but this is the EXACT reason why it is happening. Failing to recognize that HALF the population is women and you can’t expect nothing to happen when you steal major rights from them.
