Well, damn, now I almost feel obligated to go back to my higher priced plan. This.....and Colbert.
Well I'll be renewing Netflix again. Happily. 😁💙🫶
George Clooney needs to do the same.
Ditch Paramount*, renew Netflix. *After the last Star Trek SNW drops.
And he publicly admitted to abusing his position as owner to invade young girls’ dressing rooms for his sexual gratification. The magats worry about trans. The true danger is straight cis men. Especially rich and powerful ones. Follow the money!
💙💙💙
👍💙🙏💙👍
And they’re giving Stephen Colbert a space, even if just a small series of episodes. Both have to piss Trump off… so prepare to hear about a war against Netflix
Why not 50 million
Thank you.
What? A corporation found its balls. Amazing.
That's it?
Thank you Reed Hastings!!... 💙💙💙...All the more reason to support Netflix!!
That’s why I only subscribe to Netflix ! They deserve our support! ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼
👏
Never gonna give up Netflix
Good for him. I gave money too. Let’s get this done!
I'm signing up for Netflix. 💜
He also donated $250,000 to the pro-Cuomo PAC "Fix the City" so don't give him too much credit.
"amazing I just resubscribed!" After reading a headline and not thinking about it. I wouldn't be surprised if he has donated to Republican campaigns as well. It's what the rich do but even the left gets absolutely duped by headlines. No critical thinking or research skills anywhere.
Worth resubscribing to see Colbert. Time will tell if I stay.
Yes!!! Thank you Reed
@lazytato.bsky.social another reason to love Netflix 😘🫶
If he signs Colbert, he'll have established his creds...
A drop in the bucket- better than 0 but weak still
Waiting for someone to offer home loans to Democrat voters in Texas to mess up those amazing new maps they just drew!
Still don't understand why electoral boundaries would be drawn by the very people who run for the office those electorates would vote for.
Thank you Netflix. You got more subscribers today.
A billionaire with balls. I like that!
Awesome.
Well kind of funny how front runners attract. I do love this though.
There’s a better way to address Trump’s naked power grab but eliminating gerrymandering would require a bipartisan effort that his MAGA GOP has vociferously rejected. Once again, everything that Trump touches dies. No choice but to move forward with Plan B. Gloves Off! Time to move forward
That's what I'm talking about. Finally, an extremely wealthy person using their brain for good, not evil!

And this is who AI has predicted who will be elected president in 2028. Let's make sure this doesn't happen!!!
As long as AIPAC wants it, they will. But if someone more loyal to them emerges,

Fitting considering how many specials they gave Dave Chappelle. I guess Trans people makes a suitable sacrifice for some, I mean they make up a small population, but, while I'm glad to hear about the redistricting, I hope nobody entertains his run for the Oval Office.
Gonna subscribe to Netflix even harder now
He is worth 6.4 billion with a “B”. The equivalent percentage for a person worth $1 million would have to donate $312.50.
@netflix.com you’re doing the right things💯 Glad we kept our family membership
While I appreciate the donation of such a big number, that’s it?
Thank you. Netflix is my main stream.
American Hero 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸
OMG! You mean there are actually rich people who don’t support Trump and the Reeps for making them more rich?
I'm pretty sure he's just covering his 🍑. Never trust the rich.
This is indeed the time for all good ppl to come to the aid of their party BYOCash
Thank you Reed Hastings! Now I’m happy I’ve kept Netflix! Let’s Go California!
I just resubscribed! Netflix also just signed Colbert! Win- win!
I didn’t know they signed him! Definitely a double win!!! ✌️💙
Keeping Netflix... already quit Prime Don't forget that YOU HAVE THE POWER to boycott the plutocrats & oligarchs supporting the fascistic regime of DJT and other contemporary immoral acts We can't vote plutocrats out of office but we can spend $ elsewhere www.ethicalconsumer.org/ethicalcampa...
Nice gesture, but I still won't renew my subscription to Netflix
Good place to do business with.🎥
Bravo!
Thank you!!!!
Good!
As an original member at their inception, I am still upset about the fact that I can no longer share my account with my family members however, good job.
I commend you, sir. I’m very proud. Congratulations. I will keep my Netflix account.
Only $2 million? That’s chump change!! I thought we are fighting fire with fire? How much did Elon drop for this administration??
Ends my watching Netflix
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Fight fire with fire
A good reason to support Netflix!
Excellent!
And that’s why I subscribe to Netflix (along with their great content) and dropped Amazon Prime.
… also signed Stephen Colbert for $13 million
Musk gave the Republicans $300 million. Dem donors are just performative ….
Fight fire with fire 👏
Thank you true patriot saving this corrupt country
Thank you, Sir🙏!
I would prefer this kind of activity were illegal and the same with gerrymandering. But they called the game and we have to play it according to their rules. Well done Reed Hastings.
Good. Beat them at their own game.
How soon before the MAGA boycotts Netflix?
Who cares if they boycott. They are in a tiny minority anyway, with more leaving each and every day... So much for make America great again... I think Netflix will more than survive.
“Net-whuuut? Do they gat ‘UhMurkan Pickerz own? Shore dew luuv ‘et show.” ~ All MAGAts.
They’re ignorant. Most won’t even be aware.
Beautiful
About time the left leaning rich people participate
$2 million? Chump change .
Well, hell, I may just have to subscribe to Netflix now.
Makes me feel happy about subscription rate
Well, good
I left when I heard the rumor about him giving Andrew Tate a show… …and I came back when I learned that a rumor was all it was. Now I’m proud to be back.
Guess I’ll now sign up for Netflix.
It’s terrible that our democratic process, or what is left of it, comes down to money. Lots and lots of money. But here we are.
Jumping ship much
Redistricting is so clever.
Awesome!
Oh I might renew my Netflix
Giving millions to a Democratic initiative? Someone is just asking for a DOJ investigation. Doesn't he know that's not allowed under this regime?
LFG!
Fuck. I hate Gavin.
What other blue states are going to do this? Democrats will not have a chance if the red states continue to illegally redistrict.
I don't care that my wife and I have watched every crime documentary and most everything else on Netflix. W're stying with them!
I hope he'll donate to other states to help them do the same. @reedhastings.bsky.social
Expanding my Netflix subscription!!
Head above the parapet Bravo More needed to unite the people
I have never had streaming platforms. I still buy, the things in physical copy. I have no ads, I can see them as many times as I want, and most importantly I have something in my hand. How would you like to buy €80 worth of a game, only to have it cancelled without warning?
Hey, I think I will subscribe to Netflix for a while pretty soon.
Bravo Reed!!
I just upgraded my plan. Thank you Netflix.
Bumping up my subscription to the most expensive plan.
I knew I kept Netflix for a reason. (…and the programming of course)
Why celebrate more corporate control over our democracy?
Well done, Mr. Hastings!! That'll get you some subscriber-loyalty!
That’s how to do it! Who’s next? There’s tons of wealthy people out there and they’re definitely not all Rump supporters. Put your money where your heart is!
So confused as to how Americans don't seem to realise that Newsom is literally just trying to position himself to take over the MAGA movement when Trump dies. All his done is post some AI slop and people are happy to ignore the shit his doing to the homeless and trans groups.
Love my Netflix 💙🇺🇸
I didn’t know the Netflix guy is a good person that’s on the right side of history.
Reed is one of the smartest guys I’ve ever worked for. Good to see this.
Ditto. I worked for him for a couple years and he was a great person to learn from. I have a lot of respect for him.
Awesome and a big thanks! It’s about time some large donors started giving support to candidates that are fighting for our freedoms.
Thanks. Give more. He’s providing an opiate for the masses, that’s drug money for all the purposes of the situation in the nation that enabled his wealth is in. I’ve been hoping to god that big business would have been concerned enough with the long term direction of this to stop it.
They are the people who have funded, enabled, and benefited from the backslide. The UHC case, should have been at least an ethical wake up call. People never talk about why people were protesting in the streets anymore, in 2020. The violence was inevitable. This is just another kind of it
Inevitable based on historical precedent and the realities of what goes on in this country. Big business needs to give back or face the wrath of whatever resentment they stoke amongst the regular among us
Why do Republicans say that George Soros is the leftist puppet master, not Reed Hastings? Oh.
So, I will keep paying @netflix.com .
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And this is why I support Netflix 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@netflix.com 💙
Woohoo! Ya know, we are quick to share the word of companies that capitulate to tRump and have bad practices. We need a positive campaign to hold defenders of Democracy up, like Netflix. If they see that doing the right thing boosts them perhaps it will dispel the fear of being on his “bad side”.
Absolutely
💯 My family has doubled down on not only cutting spending for those who have cut DEI and capitulated, but also those who leaned into DEI and doing what’s right.
Woohoo.. this is how we take back the hand. Let’s be vocal about it and give kudos LOUDLY where it’s deserved!!
A CEO obviously on the side of democracy and decency and not in the EPSTEIN FILES!!!
✊🏽✊🏽✊🏽
That's great!
Bravo!!!
👏👏
Y'all have really lost the plot with "oh I'm going to resubscribe now!" Dude sneezes and probably makes 2mil. This is nothing to him and probably done for political favor.
One rich guy makes a donation and everyone starts kissing the boot again. They want you to fight a culture war instead of the very much more real class war. We never learn
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Not voting for Newsome for president… glad he’s doing something but no more corporate neoliberals for me who take big donor money and give the rest of us crumbs… if you’re not progressive like Bernie Sanders, Zohran Momdani, Tim waltz And JB Pritzjer , you’re not getting my vote or money!
Netflix also has the best customer service. Just sayin
Ok…I’ll probably renew now.
Thank God for people who are trying to save our democracy.
how have they not already been drawn? i thought plans were in place and triggered by the texas vote?
@netflix.com and Reed Hastings are another superhero.
Thank you sir👍🏼
Obviously Netflix doesn’t want socialist government interference.
Be sure to make the check out to the California Elections Bureau or whatever they call it these days. Don't want Trump accusing Newsom of pocketing the $2M... Which would mean Trump was projecting his own desires, again.
Pretty cool
Thank you.
Chump change to him
I’m not fond of any corporate donors, but since there are, it’s hard not to be glad when a little dough comes our way.
Didn’t know much about Reed Hastings- a Quick Look at Wikipedia and WOW- he’s a good guy. Well done Sir.
Time to subscribe
Thank you sir I will now sign up again.
Same here.
I'm all for Newsom doing what he has to, but imagine this-- Big fat guy standing in the center of a boxing ring, old fashioned mic in hand. "And now, ladies, gentlemen and children of all ages; I give you the Battle Of The Billionaires." Just wrong on so many levels.
That's one expensive pencil!
And tomorrow we will see OF47s revenge rants about Netflix.
❤️🙏🏼
A great reason to keep my Netflix subscription
