Please do an episode on bipolar!!! I want there to be more information spread on that as it’s smthn I struggle with daily ;_; I feel like no one gets it tho lmao
How to stop using social media: Work at a social media company
u either die an addict or live long enough to be the dealer
Lucifer moment
Brb 🏃🏽♀️
that. Hate most social media. I do unfortunately watch a lot of RUclips though. The rest I'm not on.
Kinda like once u know how a hotdog is made ur not gonna want to eat it anymore
damn, that lady really invented the like button
Here have a like
@@carolxu8939 you can have one too :)

It wasn’t her. It was Justin Rosenstein. He’s the inventor of the like button
@Sequoia Harpersberger damn anthony has a rough audience lol btw I like sequoias lol are you a tree?
Eversince Anthony started his "I spent a day" series, he just got better and us getting more open minded. This is content. This is a real influencer.
Has he addressed the Mykie situation?
Yo what happened to Mykie?
Ikr I’m learning a lot on here actually
@@yorukaadams940 i don't think he has -yet i also think it's not his responsibility either. Doesn't really concern his relationship with his audience

Thanks for having me on, appreciated sharing the behind-the-scenes effects of social media (as an ex-Google, ex-Facebook tech lead).
I’m reading in the comments that you doxxed a smaller youtuber. You came off super genuine in the interview, I’d be so sad if you really did that to someone. Not v cash money of you
@@MegJuniper no worries, I'm a really great guy.
@@TechLead You were amazing in this episode!
Too bad you didn’t have coffee time.
TechLead You forgot to add "as a millionaire "
i didn’t realize that algorithms were this intricate and this successful at deteriorating our mental health
Algorithms are step by step programs. I never knew that they would be so complex
Netflix has a great movie called The Social Dilemma with a bunch of people from the tech world. It's super depressing, but it explains how much social media and tech companies benefit from data mining and engagement.
If you have netflix watch "The Social Dilemma"
Scary stuff, right.
Ah yes, society never fails to disappoint
Anthony, does your back hurt?
Because you're carrying youtube
Original 👍🏻
That sounds like something my dad would say lmao
Real talk OG YT MASTER
also because he's been jumping through ceilings for years now
You must have about no content diversity considering there is about a million influencers. RUclips would do just fine without anthony Padilla.
my problem with those algorithms is, that I'm less incouraged to explore. I mean I'm almost scared to try out new content. Let's say I'm not that into it and then afterwards I will be spamed with it the next couple of days :/
Sometimes I try new content and automatically click do not recommend this channel after I click it if I didn't enjoy it just so that I won't be spammed with it forever
@Alitt OMG I thought that I was the only one. I just always report them and say that I either don't like the video or that I already watched it. I love to explore RUclips, but just as you said it seems like they want to limit us...
True. Here my husband working with a car company and he's spammed with luxury cars... I researched stuff about babies for a school project... I can't even tell you how much baby ads I got. Now, I'm feeling like I want another baby and the craving are awful.
So true. I am worried that a recommended Google ad might be explicit and that I might have to share my screen with my boss or my training group.
i actually love when that happens cuz it makes me spend less time on the app, not only Yt but I'm using IG way less cuz I was tired of seeing an ad every three posts, they were products I was really into and there were a few months where I was buying too much (cool) shit and it was bad for my finances

Anthony, let me tell you I LOVE your new editing decision with the interviewee in a vertical monitor/green screen. I understand that not all interviewees can have equipment for vertical setups but i really really like this. Following social distancing guidelines AND making me (the viewer) feel like its just a regular ‘in person’ interview haha
i’m ecstatic you noticed these little details! i’ve had so much fun tinkering with the set and i really love how it’s evolved so far 👨🍳
@@AnthonyPadilla What does the eggpan emoji mean in that sentence?
Yes!! I felt the same way and am also intrigued as to how this vertical screen works ive never seen that before
@@AnthonyPadilla hey Anthony I'm inspired I Wanna become a show host like you someday
I love it sooo much! I just didn't realize it was a greenscreen 🤣.
Thank you sooo much Anthony, I have watched pretty much all your videos since I found out about your channel a couple of months ago. They have helped me immensley in understanding people in all walks of life in a way I have never thought possible. I also am SOOO HAPPY and excited for your podcasts!! Congrats!!!
Remember when all this didn't exist and you didn't know what others were up to? So if some 13 year old somewhere across the world was making millions you wouldn't know about it so it didn't make you feel bad about yourself. Now everyone's highlights are constantly being shoved everywhere it's so hard not to be depressed in this era.
Damn! This is so true!
@@janicedsilva2857 I legit feel like my actions don't exist unless The World™ knows about it.
🤦🏼♀️
That's why I try (said TRY) to only watch videos like these, commentary, and learning stuff instead. I try not watching my friends' stories either
i havent finished this but te fact that EVEN this is probably not enough to stop me from being on social media 24/7 is pretty scary thing
Please take breaks.. Your mental health is more important than keeping up to date with everything.
How often do you use it a day?

Bailey honestly seems like such a cool person?? And I love that for her shoutout she didn’t promote herself but instead said’ don’t feel like you need to use social media if it isn’t making you happy.’ That’s the kind of positive friend we need 💛
It sucks being an artist in the modern age who needs to market herself on social media...
What kind of artist?
@@mag2094 visual effects artist. I paint too in my free time and update my Instagram with that, but the big things are artstation and linkedin
I feel the same, I'm a dancer and OH BOY it is hard. It was hard enough before the pandemic and all of the "viral" things and now??? Its 100 times harder for all of us artists. We have to stand up and shine even though it's barely impossible at some points 😔
@@LannasMissingLink In my opinion, if you really want to make a bigger impact with your art, you should try your best to make in-person connections. This will become increasingly valuable as technology becomes more prominent.
I am an artist too, but wouldnt consider artstation and LinkedIn as standard social media though. No idea how its used as a vfx artist, but as an 3d artist myself I use artstation just as online portfolio, so I dont really need to post or blog regularly
Bruh Anthony is actually my favorite RUclipsr I haven’t even watched the whole video and I know it’s gonna be good
*youtuber
Same
Lol why did you say bruh at the beginning of the sentence
Same here
@@XavierISantana cuz why the frick not
you know its an issue when the people who built these things themselves don't trust it
I agree, but I feel that the creators of something are the ones that are the most likely to find it’s faults. Like we as people are our biggest critic kind of thing, you know? I totally get your point though. Something does need to be fixed.
The fact that all 3 people who worked in social media don’t use social media is illuminating. For people trying to cut back on social media, try deleting your social media apps when you’re done using them. That way it’s harder to access but it’s not impossible. It adds a more conscious step to the habit of checking social media. I started doing this at the beginning of 2020 and it has cut my social media use down by a lot and it has freed up way more time to do things that actually promote my mental health rather can cut it down.
yes!! the best way to stop is to quit enabling yourself. unlike most addictions, the best way to stop social media use is to delete everything all at once.
I would KILL for a vintage version of Instagram from it's earlier days. I just wanted to share pictures with my friends. I loved it. Far cry from what it is now. It's not even the same app.
Vintage Instagram was awesome. 2011/2012 era was fun, it was just posting cool pics with crazy filters
@arosequartz do it. I recently realized just how much time it took away in my day and ever since I deleted it, I’m so much more productive.
There is actually an app out there called Dayflash that’s trying to do exactly that. They’re pretty small at the moment from what I understand and I haven’t used it. But it sounds like a good thing.
@arosequartz normally you can still access Instagram from your browser (I still check it from time to time with safari)
I mean, unless you absolutely need the notification from the group chat. Then idk.
Honestly I kind of hate how there’s not an Instagram version of messenger, it so much better when you can have messages having to deal with the rest of Facebook.
Oh god, the current app is horrendous. I can't even consider it "fun" anymore. Instagram should have stayed Instagram and not try to be Snapchat, RUclips, TikTok, and Facebook combined.
Please do “I spent a day with Domestic Abuse Survivors”. There’s such a stigma with it, such as it being mainly physical abuse, those who are affected are “stupid” when there’s a large varieties of abuse and it can happen to anyone!
dope idea. hope he actually does that.
Agreed!!!
I would gladly do the interview. I was in an extremely abusive relationship for 6 years. Every type of abuse, was physically thrown into his truck and taken to another city, locked in a basement for two days. I live in a small town and he seems to get away with everything he does because he’s a business owner. He’s friends with all of the “important” people. I’d love to tell my story I’m hopes that it would help someone else. Edit: if I could be anonymous
Sorry. I tend to rant.
@@sailormf It's okay, also you're not ranting. You're telling your story, a very important one to say the least. And it was very interesting to read. I'm sorry you had to go through all that and I hope you never get treated like that again
this is not only useful and educational, but also thought provoking
I've been addicted to social media for over 14 years now, and it can be a real struggle at times
Me too
The robots have taken over, but not in the way we expected.

I think it would be really cool to have a conversation with a homeless person. Not sure if this is feasible rn but they are so misunderstood and discriminated against.
He Would Probably Have To Go Out And Search For Them On His Own Because Most Homeless People Likely Don't Have A Phone Or Any Kind Of Device. Either Way This Would Be A Great Video If It Was Made!
Edit: don't know why I thought homeless people wouldn't have a phone, many do. So yeah this would be a totally great thing to do!

@@icewaterandwolves2815 One day you're going to look back at this period of your life (capitalizing every word) and cringe. I know I did.
This is why I don’t have social media besides RUclips
It was killing me, mentally.
Im so sorry to hear that, social media shouldn’t be a necessity, yet it is for most people, including me, im glad you got past that.
Omg, same, I don't use social media, because I just don't care about what other people posts and in general yeah it also killed me mentally, so I just dropped it, because in the end I saw that itvjust wasn't something I was interested in and yeah...
I could be the poster child for “ignorance is bliss” I am so much happier not knowing and stressing over posts.
hate to break it to you, but RUclips is also -a social media site- competing for your attention. You're prolly just as out of control as you would be on other apps
EDIT: fixed my poor choice of words
@@meriwoo7382 Yeah, well that's true and yeah I use RUclips but mostly because of the music🤔
What I meant is more like Insta/Snapchat/Tik Tok/Facebook
I dunno I tried Insta for example, but I couldn't manage maintaining my account, so I just dropped it, like yeah, I see all my friends being super active there and all, always posting stories, but I just can't do such a thing, I don't feel the need to post or share anything from my personal life🤔🤔🤔
I dunno, maybe I'm weird, it's just way too mentally exhausting for me, like even following people and constantly seeing what they post, it's just difficult for me
And like also, since my family don't want to have a TV and I don't have my own PC, RUclips is the closest thing to me where I can get news
You should one of these on ex music industry/ film industry employees. We all have hear how toxic the industry can be so it would be cool if we could hear first hand experience.✨
This would be really interesting. I agree!
Anthony you should do a “I spend a day with a former prisoner/death row inmate”!
He said he’s doing one on death row survivors/exonerees
Done!
done
I feel bad for the construction workers who has to fix the ceiling after every video, it must be tough
Extremely glad this was a video!!!! Not enough is talked about social media addiction, and this interview was definitely eye-opening.
gosh darn golly thank you for the like Anthony!!!!!
I 👏🏻 also 👏🏻 want 👏🏻 an Instagram 👏🏻 with 👏🏻 no 👏🏻 algorithm 👏🏻
fr tho...they should let us have a choice to turn off the algorithm when we want
I'll be honest, Tik Tok is a killer because its algorithm is pretty much perfect... it's crazy. I spent so many hours on it that I ended up deleting all my social media apps (except youtube) because my attention was glued to social media aka not real life.
Had same issue. I would spend up to 40h a week on tiktok. When i deleted it I didn't know what to do because I had so much time to myself.
@@tonymavi3402 thank god you commented on this. I recently redownloaded tiktok and I've been telling myself to stop so this is a hard reminder of my own words lol
If any one is looking for ways to cut back, try setting times during the day to put away your phone, you can start by taking small breaks.
Thank you for the advice, I’ve been trying to lessen my time on social media because of my mental health and it’s really hard to get a starting place
@@Finnoli420 of course your welcome!
Thanku I have been seeking out social media every time when I feel lonely and I don't even realise how much time I waste on this . Thanku
Blocking/deactivating notifications has helped me a lot. I got addicted to checking every notification at the height of the pandemic which was not healthy at all for me
I believe in you guys that you can stop your addiction ! i myself am addicted but its gotten better the older i am and the more that i have to do hw and help my family. my sister was addicted and stopped almost completely! so i suggest it if you have mental health problems. tell your friends youre gonna uninstall and app for ex. instagram so they know and wont send u anything on there so u wont be so keen on seeing what youre missing. you can uninstall it and then install it when u feel better. and for learning i recommend turning wifi off from your phone and putting it far away from u so if youre lazy like me youll be too lazy to even go pick it up
I literally got an ad while she was talking about how the algorithm is just to put ads in people’s faces
Yes me too, perfect placement there!
same, it knows....
Same..
Same...
Yep. Theory perfectly proven
When I was in 6th grade, Instagram had just came out and Snapchat was just becoming a thing. I got super depressed bc I didn’t look like all these pretty models and social media made me feel like that was how people “should” look. I now barely go on social media, and Ive learned a bit more of how to love myself. Media should be a place where everyone is accepted and just a leisurely activity, not an obsession. If you don’t put down your phone, you won’t experience the beauty of the world in real time. Love y’all 🥺💗
Thanks Anthony, I appreciate all you do and put out there. I hope ya have a great holiday season! 💗(:
Well said!
The comparison of social media to opium was a huge eye opener. It’s so true, people are gonna look back and see it in very similar ways.
Anthony is becoming criminally underrated

yess
Yesss! To me, Tumblr is the last good social media site out there, because it’s just a bunch of self-deprecating weirdos reblogging artsy and humor posts, and it’s like it’s in its own little space that’s separate from influencers and other toxic aspects of social media.
@@dearlyintrovert670 very agree
Jesus I thought I was the only one haha. It seems like it's the only website without cesspools of toxicity (sometimes)
wish I would use social media less, because it can really deteriorate my mental health. My problem is that I really have nothing else to do. I don’t leave my house, I often CAN’T leave my house (for many reasons). I have no friends. And while I do have hobbies, I never feel like I’m good enough at them. It’s so addicting. And this coming from someone who doesn’t even use Twitter or Instagram. I feel so bad. So... empty.
-Sincerely, a stupid teenager.
Me too.
Another stupid teenager
Honestly I was very addicted to Instagram and other social media and I chose to challenge myself by undownloading every app for 3 weeks and I was surprised to feel bored and it was really amazing. Like I was surprised that days were this long, previously I didn't really did much during a day. But I felt the need to go see social media exactly like a drug throughout the first week. I hope you will be OK and trust me try to stay away from it for a certain amount of time you will always find something better to do, you may surprise yourself to like something new 😉
Same - Another stupid teenager
you just described my life
This video about social media reminds me of the Black Mirror episode Nosedive where your social media “status” defines your irl status in society which is scary af
I realized awhile ago that I, unlike almost everyone around me, wasn't attracted to being on the phone/social media 24/7. I would only ever go on to call/text someone or play a mobile game while waiting to go to class. I never understood "streaks" for snapchat or the necessity to always be scrolling through Instagram or twitter. To me, none of that really seemed important and if I needed to find something out, there would be a new article or youtube video that would give me the basic run down of the information. I still don't use my phone or social media even now, like 10 months into quarantine as I know now that it is just a trap. Although I am fortunate enough to not have a need for these mindless apps, it does give me fomo but I would take that any day then to live my life with drama 24/7.
Yeah I’m not into social media like that. I don’t care what other people are doing with their lives lol. I’ll occasionally check instagram for the meme pages I follow for some good laughs. But I do waste a lot of time on mobile games😬
Same
Same here. Just RUclips and Netflix for me.
@em ! I only use facebook to chat with my mom occasionally and that's it. I use twitter like once a year to troll.
For some reason my husband isn’t so affected either. I don’t understand why some people are just about immune to it.
Those who value social media over reality are frightening...
Which are the majority of young people nowadays? Why do you think emotions are more reliable than facts? Everyone believes their feed and censorship are their sword and shield.

I am addicted to social media and my phone in general. I try so hard to break free from it but it is so freaking hard. I don't even like being on my phone, it makes me miserable, but I can't get away from it. It feels like I have tried everything, but nothing works, I always go back to using it 8 hours a day. My phone ruined my life. I wish I could just get rid of it but it is also very necessary to communicate with others because it does have useful things like texting and calling. I wish I could just stick to that.
I just hope one day I will be free again.
I did a complete detox a few months ago bc yeah, noticed social media is ruining me. I deleted all social media apps and the rest was will power. I am also quite forgetful, if you are too this might help. I threw my phone into a drawer and left it there bc I will forget where I put it after doing doing something like homework
hey! I don't comment much, but what really helped me was actually getting an old ass phone that couldn't run much things at once. I only really use it for messenger, calling or texting. Might help :)

Anthony - be careful about how much social media you use

I heard someone call RUclips a social media and somehow I didn’t realize that it really is until now.
It's like we are so addicted to RUclips, that we forget it's bad.
Most people who stop using social media still use RUclips because it has everything, this is why I have two RUclips accounts where one is only for educational purposes and the other one is just arbitrary

This is deep stuff, but did anybody else notice that Anthony and Bailey were basically wearing the same shirt?
Im glad that more people are starting to talk about how terrible algorithm based social media is. Great video!
This is so nice to see... I'm struggling with deep social media anxiety and it's nice to see the process behind it.
Maybe I will calm down one day
I wish you the best!
It's really simple, but it's not very easy. You can quit at anytime, but you don't want to.
Now let’s consider my generation who has literally grown up from childhood alongside the internet. It’s like progressively giving a child an addictive drug compared to an adult: they’re bound to become reliant but it’s even more difficult to curb because it’s all you’ve ever known. At 18 years old (now 19), just thinking of or looking at the Instagram or Snapchat icon gives me anxiety, and yet I can’t bring myself to delete it entirely. In four days, my daily average on my phone was 11hrs. Today at 8:27 AM I have spent 8 hrs and 11 mins on my phone. When you have teens struggling with poor mental health or any other unfortunate life circumstances, social media can easily become an unhealthy coping mechanism. I’ve learned to take social media breaks but I’ve noticed they’ve become more and more frequent in my life.
The editing and everything on Anthony’s videos are legit the best things I’ve ever watched

the sad things is in junior high and high school we would have several classes and assemblies telling us this information, telling us physical/emotional safety risks, plus just general threat of everything being so publicized about your life/being so accessible
and the part that’s sad is that i could and still can completely comprehend these dangers, but don’t even seem to ever care. it just feels like i’m completely reliant on technology.
not only with myself, but with social pressure and this being an outlet to feel accepted.
i’ve used social media as a coping mechanism since i was in third grade when i first downloaded social media sites and saw cool things happening, then i wanted other people to think i’m cool to validate myself. it became this never ending cycle and i ended up not using it for probably a full year
then, as i got older, how odd is it to not use social media for everything?
schoolwork was online. my parents couldn’t take my laptop or ipad or phone away because i couldn’t get schoolwork done
how i learned became online. my high school doesn’t even have a library anymore, it became a media center where you can use computers. i love the library but it’s so much easier to learn about something online, so it’s a lot of energy to just go to the library.
sports & hobbies? online. all of our reminders, and tasks, resources are online. videos we had to submit or voice recording of us practicing, all there
all of our ability to capture photos & videos? online.
work? online applications, needing to do online work at home, completely working online, smaller businesses and creators pretty much needing internet to get any of their business out there.
social pressure to fit in? needing to post on social media, a certain way, all curated together, having accounts on trendy apps to fit in with others. in probably sixth grade, invitations to birthday parties were all online. i got made fun of whenever i’d use anything handwritten. i barely write anymore and if i write more than three minutes my hand completely cramps, yet i can type for hours.
how to have communication with longer distance family members/while you’re away from parents? all online to check in and call them, share what you’re doing. be able to call for help.
access to news, pop culture, current events, all online.
i cant remember the last time someone has written a letter or i have unless it was a mailed birthday card. getting in contact with people is all online.
making new friends and forming relationships are all online. i met my boyfriend through snapchat. most of my friends i didn’t talk to until after social media interactions. more recently for me, downloading bumble bff bc i’m just too anxious to meet people irl and unfamiliar with it.
it’s so frustrating because regardless of how much i want to get off social media, even without the addictive or self-worth aspect, knowing all the dangers and risks and negative effects on me, how in the hell could i not be online all the time??
also the nine hour statistic worries me bc i know i personally spend way more than that on my phone a day if i’m not working or have a commitment that prevents me from being on my phone. i don’t even have to check and i know i spend way more than half a day on my phone. one time i seen “10 hours” and was super proud of myself. another time i seen “6 hours” and was literally elated i was able to stay off of it that often. it’s scary
Hi Anthony! Can you please make a video with people diagnosed witg depression and/or anxiety to explain the truth between feeling depressed/having depression and feeling anxious/ having anxiety?
Vouch. I discovered my depression at 23 by taking an AD prescribed for a different issue.
I was like 'uhhh yeah so turns out there was a different issue...:
Please do “I spent a day with people with Ed’s” particularly EDNOS and BED. Thank you so much for ur content and so much representation ❤️
Ed's? As in Ehlers-Danlos??? That would be awesome! I have messaged him before about doing an episode on people that deal with severe chronic pain, since there is honestly so much of a stigma surrounding us.
what's that
It would be helpful to explain it for the people that don’t know what you are Talking about :)
@@lizthedisjointedzebra692 I was talking about eating disorders, but doing a video like that would be great too
@@benia1908 Ed=eating disorder
EDNOS=eating disorder not other specified
BED=binge eating disorder
anthony has the greatest channel on youtube, so much informative media which got me into watching dissociaDID.
I don't have whatsapp, facebook, snapchat, tiktok, twitter, instagram, and so on... and I still sometimes feel overwhelmed with the internet and often I do a "no internet week" for detoxing.
Anthony, whenever you doubt yourself think about this. Your videos are some of the very best programming I've ever seen in my long life and I've lived all over the world. Your introductions, questions, and epilogues are intelligently and thoughtfully planned. You are sensitive, kind, and honest with your guests. You choose guests who have stories to tell about things that are rarely, or never, talked about but should be as these are things the public should know about to create understanding of others and what affects us all. I don't give praise easily because I'm hard to please so you must be doing everything right. Lastly, numbers go up and down. It just happens and can't be predicted. You have a decent amount of subs now and as long as you continue with your usual high quality content, you will continue to be equally, or even more, successful. (I may have only just subbed but I have watched your vids before)
I am soo confidently clicking the like button, cause I know that those interviews will be respectful and informative. Amazing job, Anthony! Such a wonderful human being 😉
the girl: where to insert the ads and make sure they are seen..
my youtube: ADS
I work as a Content Writer, Digital Advertiser, and Search Engine Optimizer and, let me tell you, I *HATE* algorithms.
The content has increasingly and extremely quickly become more senseless and actually irrelevant. It's even more an enemy to users each time it updates.
So, being involved with all the aspects of the internet by making ad campaigns, saturating we sites with keywords, and also posting my personal poetry online to see it fail has made me run away from basically everywhere but RUclips.
Wild how whenever they said the word "ad" "advertisement" an ad would pop up
i’m so early that all of the comments are from bots
This is a bot probably
same
Maybe we are all bots
I don't think they are. They're just people wanting to be the first comment. Then again, I could be a bot. We'll never know.
Same
second girl didnt even plug herself only anthony respect.
That’s Bailey! She’s always been amazing. I actually went to high school with her :)
meanwhile that guy took his 5 seconds to be like "I want to remind you that im an exgoogle exfacebook techlead". and im like.. yeah EX youre not anymore
@@pvic6959 lol yea but you couldd argue he said that cause he doesnt want to be represented as part of them still lol.
One thing I've been doing to try to not get super wrapped in social media, is instead of getting totally into it just use it as background noise. For example, before I was writing this comment I was listening to the vid while drawing. You could do chores while listening, or just do something u like.
hey anthony, i would love to see an "i spent a day with people w/ misophonia" video. Not many people know about it and i think it would be a great way to bring awareness. I have misophonia and I've never seen much representation in general. Hope you consider it!
This video is kinda sad. I fell off of social media a long time ago, and while I know how toxic it can be, sometimes I feel like I should get back on. I think I went too far to the extreme and separated myself from friends and family because of it. I guess it’s all about self control and discipline. And confidence. And respect. Yeah... great video!
Why is deflated Markiplier on the thumbnail?
AHHAHAHFJHRJD😂😂
fck.. i laughed
@@minjeong7408 same brooo haahhahahhah
i seriously saw the thumbnail fast then i got like "wait was that markiplier?"
Loll
i actually loved this video, it confirms everything i was feeling recently about social media. Please take a break once in a while guys, you’ll love it
Anthony, after this particular video, I will be a subscriber for as long as you produce content! I have seen some of your other videos including your especially effective interview with people living with schizophrenia. In my opinion, it was an amazing piece that made the scary stigma take a back seat to the humanity of these individuals, and it allowed their person to be seen and to connect with the viewers. It allowed a relatable experience in the context of a medical struggle vs just being "crazy". So many people struggle with health, and these brave people are no different, other than because it affects the brain, fight is exponentially harder, I feel. You bring a gift of humanity that is immeasurably missed and needed. I have played a few of your videos for my children as a way to encourage understanding and empathy. I ask that you PLEASE keep pulling back the curtains on the fringe subjects, the REAL HURDLES that keep us from understanding and connecting to each other. PLEASE, PLEASE, do not become another "talk show host" squandering your gift on sensational interviews. I haven't seen the school shooting survivors interview yet, but I worry about the topic, because people already sympathize with shooting victims, and so does that leave only morbid fascination? You have an extremely unusual grace to thoughtfully ask the difficult questions without pandering, thereby allowing the audience to "see" and decide (without emotional manipulation) in an authentically introspective way. It is powerful. Stay golden.
If someone is intrested in this topic, u should watch the social dilemma on netflix.
Yes, Bailey is briefly in it too!
Yes!
It wasn't a good documentary. Really one sided
Ive been following this series from the beginning and I have NO regrets, thank you Anthony!!!!!!
I love this series. I’m especially excited for the episode on OCD. I’ve had to deal with it my whole life, and when I saw Anthony was going to make a video on it I truly felt joy in my heart. I wish I had contacted him for a chance to talk about it. I cannot find words on how to explain exactly how it feels for us to see videos that pertain to our own circumstances. It in a way reassures us and makes us feel heard; confirming that we are alone nor are we crazy and these issues truly do exist and aren’t just faults in our character. Anthony, if you’re reading this, thank you deeply.
Media is probably one of the most dangerous tool someone is able to subtlety change your ideologies.
"sapped away their productivity"
Me, watching this when I still have 7 pages to write by midnight: 😳
Them: I don’t think people realize how addicted they can be to social media
Me: Nooo I’m not addicted! I’m never on social media
Also me: *spends 10 hrs a day on the Jeremy Renner app*
When someone’s video sounds click bait, I don’t feel like clicking
Same
Depends on the title, the thumbnail, and how much I would care. It’s all cringe to me tho
however, when Anthony posts a video, his NAME is the clickbait for me LOL he could make a video about drying paint and id watch it
I love this series so much! I never realized how much I was curious to know about until these subjects came to be
