Look on YouTube for the latest hurricane, typhoon or earthquake:
You'll see dozens of channels proposing catastrophic thumbnails, with crashed skyscrapers, giant waves, and so on.
Who are the guys trying to scare misinformed people, and what is their goal other than to earn some more money?
I'd be glad if YouTube will close their crappy accounts.
@GustavinoBevilacqua This might be a bit different to context of governing... but yes and also no...
Some thoughts (not all of these are final or in all without exception)
- People are enabled by YouTube so to some extend the thumbnail phenomenon is part of a wave of presentation and "oh wow" or "oh my god" pictures and click-bait or many things- so this point was about platform enabling it/
- People have nothing better to do (goes for me too even if I have more modest reasoning I honestly can't even work for free and feel like being a shitposter is more fun..
so I sympathise with
--anyone without work / silently political system
--people who can be creative even if they amplify unjustified things for many other reasons.
Many reasons are around being bored and not being paid by any other health ways.
Average person also simply not interested and not clicking much else... they want entertainment or the spectacular to get away from their own life... (the spectacular and the fear sells / magnetises people)
- also who can do hard work of thinking about their own situation? Not sure about the answer and that's from me getting into EVERYONE's face lol)
So people will fall into what is given, and what is American all-you-can-eat (all-you-can-upload) as the way to go because what else is there where you are... ?
A lot of consumption is almost unashamedly normal even by those using it for anti- stuff which then becomes anti-IT and sometimes anti-Information.Technology)
or just anti-info and let's crack nuts talking about it for 12hrs trying to force a solution out with just 2 people!
The mentality of people is still there basically to divert elsewhere unless you basically want to sit down with me and pull your hair out instead of be entertained and softly visually caressed from a distance about 'other people'.
So I'm not in fashion and people want solutions also today... otherwise after accepting that's asking too much then the real work could begin as we get over the hump of emotions
and *maybe* even fear less things and do things together (which involves not fearing me ironically)
"fear is all the world has ever seen lately"...
Linkin Park #quote #hate #nothingbettertodo #GiveMeWork #MaybeShitPostingIsMoreFun or #Google pays me at least for helping it's eco-system of clicks (what else is there in the free software apart from coding?)
