The Secret of Going Viral | Shahak Shapira | TEDxVienna

While the internet gave us access to any piece of knowledge known to man, it took away our empathy. We now know everything and care for nothing.
How did we get to the point where we started to compete for people's empathy? And how can we grab the attention of a generation that doesn't want to care?
Also, will we all die a slow, painful death in the fire pits of a post-apocalyptic world ruled by mean RUclips comments? Shahak Shapira is Israeli, Berliner, a white belt in Karate and the proud owner of a regular-sized penis. His hobbies are Hummus, Death Metal and not using Snapchat. He's a comedian, "artist", bestseller author, but first and foremost a sex symbol. He's also really into witty bios, meta-jokes and enumerations. Shahak is mostly known for his projects YOLOCAUST and "#HeyTwitter", both gaining major attention all over the world. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at www.ted.com/tedx

My deepest Condolences

[@OriginalKingRichTv]

I disagree with his approach on hate speech. It’s gonna happen. Get over it man. Don’t let it bother you

[@OriginalKingRichTv]

I disagree. We should address it and try to push it out off society

[@taoscom7145]
