"Feels so good to be vindicated. Actually, no it doesn't. Feels awful."
You hit the nail right on the head. Nothing quite like the feeling of being right the entire time, but knowing that people still aren't going to listen to you, and things are only going to get worse. Why even bother any more? Fucking hell.
I'm not going to bother anymore.
Point your friend to Andor episode 7, where Andor gets falsely charged with propagandist speech against the Empire and gets an increased sentence from 6m to 6 years for doing literally nothing.
hello, cassandra
Yes, it's like reverse schadenfreude. I want to feel good, but even though I was right, the world is too screwed up to actually be able to feel good about being right.
@Eli nah. We don't deserve this. They do though. That's the problem. People like us shouldn't have to suffer dystopian governments just because we live with idiots and 'muh sacred democracy'. Let the idiots suffer with the sociopaths alone.

When The War On Terror™ feels like a simpler time... a better time...
I literally sent the intercept article to a friend and their response was “What’s wrong with the government policing disinformation?” Followed by “I don’t really care, I don’t get that invested.” … 🤦♀️. I feel like I’m taking crazy pills.
Your friend doesn't sound very bright. Then again, I was watching CNBC this morning and two of the hosts were aggressively cheering for government censorship online. The third host and the guest being interviewed were understandably horrified.
IMHO the core problem is naive people assuming "disinformation" = obviously false statement of facts, when in practice it means anything that makes the government/ruling class look bad. The suppression of vaccine injury information has been a stunning success for the disinfo police. Yet even mentioning potential downsides will immediately get you accused of believing all sorts of things that have nothing to do with the facts of that situation. The pandemic broke a lot of people's brains.
Yep, next cops will show up at your house if you tweet the wrong way..
Similar happened to me recently. Showed my friend a post for a local event that had racist policies and my 1 friend was fine with it because racism is apparently fine if it’s against white people. And my other friend said “people are allowed to have opinions”. Made me feel crazy.
Then you have the people clamoring for war with Russia. There is a whiff of war hysteria in the air. It's insane.

Its the "I know Im right but I HOPE Im Wrong" situation. You know its happening or going to happen but you REALLY dont want that to be the case cause you know if your right it means BAD things. Just like many who have said the way shit was, and to a certain extent is, still going may lead to a Boogaloo II. Do those people WANT to be right? No they dont, and yes IM one feeling that way. But weighing how everything is going and directions being pushed by those in charge of the narrative there is only ONE foreseeable outcome.
Again its a "I have a feeling Im right but GOD I hope IM WRONG" situation.
The worst is part here is that if the people in charge didnt focus on tearing civilization apart they would probably be richer as in the diffrence of a lords living standard in the 1600 and a farmer today. Afterall under the right leadership economic growth is exponential.

"It's a private company. They can do what they want" was hilarious because that's what Twitter users would say whenever someone controversial got banned.

Freedom isn't a right, it's a responsibility. They day we give up that responsibility because we "have nothing to hide", or it's too "inconvenient", is the day we lose it.
Sad fact, that day has already passed. People don't give a fuck as long as they can get their mocha chocha latte, with soy milk and an extra cherry on the side. The vast majority don't (I originally put Noone, but that would be incorrect) wants to take responsibility for their own actions let alone collective responsibility. I've worked in public life, people are inconsiderate, ignorant, bafoons that can barely think 5 minutes ahead. Happy to accept the "truth" as long as it agrees with their own predisposition, otherwise it's "fake news".
In that case freedom has been dead for a while
Freedom is a right. But only a responsible people can keep liberty. It's both, not one or the other.
As George Carlin says we don't have "Rights" in this country we have privileges. It can't be considered a RIght if it can be taken away on a whim. Japanese Internment camps are proof of that which is worse than anything in this country now.

It is incredible that we went from collectively caring a lot about safety, NSA and Snowden, to openly clamoring for the security state. The way they have managed to propagandize consent for this is actually kind of impressive, and terrifying because you know they _really_ value/need control for whatever they want to do with it in the future.

Fun fact: demonetized videos are recommended less often by the algorithm, so demonetization is actually a form of soft censorship.
Yep, it is a form of cenorship. Even DMCA takedowns are a form of censorship. The only exception I think, is videos that endanger people, stuff like doxxing others, a call to hurt someone, CP, etc. Everything else is fair game, regardless of politics. No one should be silenced.
I mean, demonetization itself isn't an issue. Advertisers don't want to give their name to any content equally, and I don't think you can fault a company simply for prioritizing things that actually make money for them over things that don't.
Issues pop up when A) demonetization happens for political reasons or B) the financial incentive to demonetize certain things comes from somebody whose goal is to push a political agenda through it.
And for the record, this isn't even touching on actual hate speech and the likes which should never be defended with a muh-free-speech rhetoric.

Personally as a very big leftist, I always used the "is a private company they can do what they want" not as a threat, but as a warning. This is what a lot of people that believe that corporations and billionaires should have absolute freedom, but at the same time get mad when they get censored on social media. If a company wants to make money, and someone pays a lot to ban certain talking points in their social media, they will not think twice.

Honestly I love shoe so much. She really just proves that people can completely disagree but still band together over basic common sense things like “we can’t trust the government” I really wish more people would be willing to communicate and work with those who they don’t 100% agree with
This used to be commonplace practice. It is only recently that people have become so caught up in their own opinions, they're absolutely unwilling to even entertain the idea that someone has a single good point while being on the opposing side of an issue.
My theory is that the internet has made it way too easy for people to find echo chambers and fill them up with likeminded people. They're no longer forced to argue their own side of the issues, but instead just sat there going "I'm so glad I'm not the only reasonable person in this world."
Well, that and this whole idea that children shouldn't experience anything bad in their upbringing at any point. If the kids never learn to deal with opposition, they will never learn to look past it and work together to achieve something.
@@ithuhalinqua1026 Ehh, there were plenty of echo chambers in pre social media real life back then. If you shared the majority held opinion, then you were in an echo chamber. Except instead of a dank little basement, it was town hall. Widescale civility only really existed through mob rule and repression of dissenting opinions. Discourse was only polite so long as it didn't offend the sensibilities or threaten the power of those who belonged to the ingroup. The internet merely leveled the playing field for all the people who would've just been told to fall in line with the majority. The tribalism and vitriol was always there. We can just see it a lot clearer now. In order to meaningfully listen to opposing opinions, a person must desire the truth, to be right even if it means their previously held opinions are proven wrong. Most people only care about feeling like they're right and will protect their sacred cows to the death. Apologies if this rant was a bit too cynical.

Yup, and it's arguably because of a single sentiment that got popular, then gutted to warp the main point, then recirculated as if the warped version is the true one. That sentiment being "It doesn't matter if you're right, if you're an asshole about it."
Once that started circulating, people started chopping off the "about it" part to change it to "it doesn't matter if you're right if you're an asshole," which in turn is interpreted as "It doesn't matter if you're right if I don't like you, because I don't want to give you the satisfaction of being right."
They're the kind of people who could sit down with Hitler and Einstein to have a conversation about the laws of physics, listen to Hitler and Einstein agree, and deduce that both of them are wrong simply on the grounds that they hate Hitler and don't want to admit that anything that comes out of his mouth ever has even an ounce of validity (even if it has nothing to do with his problematic, racist worldviews).
To combat misinformation you have to encourage people to research. Not just take the first thing they see as truth. Make their own conclusions. The issues is how divided the country is. If you disagree with one side then you're kicked out. You're not allowed to think for yourself.
Most people are unable to do that. And the more complicated a topic is, the less people are able to do so. Making "your own opinions" on medical research with zero background in medicine is just horrible advice.

Left and right vs stupid actions.
Left and right want rights that is for the individual.
Enemy comes in, convinces people they dont' have rights.
Well people really don't know the rights they have. So they are fightin for things they already have, and other things that aren't rights.
LEFT AND RIGHT VS stupid actions.
They'll still turn it into a left vs right thing. Republicans are already blaming liberals for this and the usual socialist takeover rhetoric.
Left and right brain work together ot don't work at all and die. that is how this goes. If they don't want to work together. They die. we die. all of it ends.
LEFT and Right work together, can you imagine your body moving as one that would be good.
Now imagine the left hand smackingthe right hand and the right hand smacking the left hand each time that you try to eat.
Because one side don't agree with what you eating and then you switch it up and the other side don't agree with what you eating and they never agree so you die of starvation because the left and right of your brain is too stupid to work together.
That is like America right now. Two sides or "brains" of the America
both sides see each other as enmey and try to dominate each other, taking the foods out of each others mouths and is killing themselves because of it.

Why? Even back then, people were moderating content that we posted. In the AOL chat rooms. In the comments section of news websites. At entire forums. It's been like this for quite a while 🤷 There's just wayyyy more people today that are clueless about what "Free Speech" and the Constitution actually covers. So they try to make a boohoo fest out of nothing simply because they fail to grasp what freedom of speech is.

Hey shoe, I just want to let you know I really appreciate your rants. You are fun to listen to and I think that the message that you bring is helping people wake up. Thank you and keep up the fight. God bless.
Tusm for this video. I'm a boomer who never hung out much on the internet until my son told me about Leafy getting banned from RUclips. I was shocked to learn that could happen in our country. Now that I spend more time online, I see repeated similar situations, including the banning of a sitting president. As upsetting as it may be to younger people, it is unimaginable to those of us who have lived for decades knowing that in America, even if I hate what you are saying, I will defend your right to say it. My appreciation to you for creating this video. Respect.
It doesn't matter how much power your title bestows upon you, private venues and websites have all rights to ban your ass on the spot for breaching their Terms of Service as if that title is meaningless (Because to them it is). For instance if I were to go to a store screaming obscenities at their staff and other customers they'd be well within their rights (As the store is their private property) to have me thrown out on my ass and ban me from coming back, just as Twitter or Reddit would be well within their rights as the owner of what is effectively virtual private property to ban me for antisemitism or other assorted hate speech.
@@RhelrahneTheIdiot
I don't think your comparison between platforms on the internet and private venues has as much weight behind it as you think. I think the differences are more than enough to warrant different approaches. I don't buy that Twitter or Reddit (etc.) are, in effect, virtual private property. They are far too broad a space to compare to your example of a store. They are closer to an entire digital planet or country than they are the constrained space of a store, a key factor in their role as a "public square."
I'd argue the store comparison better works with an individual's feed or subreddit. _Don't like the person spouting obscenities at you? Kick them out of the store by _*_blocking them,_*_ not banning them from the whole platform._ In this way you have the ability to filter people out, without taking away their right to free speech.
@@lightbetweendarkness6571 ToS can be written to infringe on your rights, or updated so that it does, I disagree that you don't have rights under a private company. Employees and prospective hires are given rights from private infringement of rights, I disagree that you give up your rights just because you use a private service.
Sure, don't use it. Yeah right. What if you need to use the service as part of your job? Or because it is the only way to get your word out? I'm sorry but this is a bullshit argument.
Edit: And I've already stated how your store comparison is far from relevant.
@@RhelrahneTheIdiot You know that Trump was not banned for obscenities. You support that ban ONLY bc it targeted Trump. You would object if they expelled Obama or Biden or Fauci. The Musk hysteria now is exactly that: he has not banned anybody yet; his haters are not afraid of being banned; they just want Trump to be banned forever. This is their (and your) idea of freedom and free circulation of ideas and information. You're exactly what this video is about.
@@lightbetweendarkness6571 You are right, my disagreement doesn't change much.
However, if we've already established that rules of service can be updated there is no reason why we can't seek changes so that our rights become and remain respected.
(Note: I'll grant that you aren't arguing that we can't. My point is that "they can do what they want, they're a private company" does not necessitate we allow our rights to be stripped simply to use one of the primary means of communication in our day and age.)
June thank you for putting this out there. We don’t agree on politics for the most part but I do respect you and your work. This push to shutdown the oppositions speech is scary to me quite frankly. Our 2 party system is a bowl of turds looking at its self in the mirror laughing. The most terrifying thing is I don’t believe any of this ends without violence and bloodshed.
Looking at history, the end of this isn't looking too good for sure.

It's been here for a long time now. I can't remember who, but I remember hearing a story years ago from one whistleblower who described a government meeting that had heads of various large corporations and the realization over the course of said meeting that the line between big government and big corporate had blurred to the point of nonexistence.

"How would you combat misinformation online?"
You can't. We're all fucked. Who fact-checks the fact-checkers?
It's been a nice run, everyone.
That's not really the end of the run, though... Who peer-reviews the peer-reviewed science? Who teaches the teachers? All systems have such loop(hole)s.
Free speech was never a given when using private platforms, of course if they don't like what anyone is doing that account will sooner or later be gone... The only alternative is as it has always been: to use _another_ platform for those disliked ideas.
The *real* way to combat misinformation is *critical thinking* but that's literally the opposite of what schools have been encouraging

@@irrelevant_noob but even then that’s not exactly the best idea as it just creates echochambers, mostly for Nazis and shit, I mean look at parler or Gab. Like, I feel like misinfo and racist shit and all that should be dealt with and gotten rid of, but I don’t trust the government to do so. So, what do we do? There is a balance somewhere, but, where is that balance?
You can do a lot of things, like knowing who owns and who backs the newsletters and sites where you read. You can learn about the subject to know if the news is doing obvious mistakes. You can learn about the writer of the story. You can apply a set of simple rules (like analyzing how the adjectives are being used, or if there is any fallacy).
But ofc is not easy and most ppl don't want to put the effort in all that. However, if your family teaches those tecnics from an early age, it will be natural for you and you will be able to detect obvious misinformation with ease.

Defending corporations and governments is like defending your abusive partner's behaviour.
It is worse. At least your abusive partner is still a human being, and some people use someone's wrong doings as "justificiation" to cross any morality and ethics lines with them, so it depends on context, what one is actually defending them from. Corporations and governments don't have that benefit, contrary to US law in some situations (silly country really), they're not people. Human rights, human diginity, it doesn't apply to corporations and governments themselves.
What makes you thing I have a partner?
I remember scavenging libraries and the beginnings of the internet for this type of info and talking with people about random fucked up things going on in the world..

Y'know I decided to study history in University because I liked facts. All it has done so far is make me more paranoid and schitzo, especially when it comes to governments corporations and anyone with more influence and money than me.
That's a sad way to live.
Nobody has more of a vested interest in spreading misinformation than our own government. As long as the population is stuck at left vs right it can never be us vs them.
Actually one of the best reasons to study history is there are only so many lies, intriques, dirty tricks etc. Nothing new under the sun. Better to know the future by way of the past because the same $hit just keeps happening over and over. If it ain't in the history books it's in the newspapers.
The truth is, it's always been like that. The class of people with the most resources using them to force everyone else to do what they want. The foundational problem that the constitution was trying to fix with its 3 co-equal branches of government was the consolidation of power because concentrated power anywhere inevitably becomes corrupt.

Last 3 decades: The billionaires are secretly controlling the government. Now: the government is overtly controlling the billionaires.
Lol DEFINATELY not. The government is 100% swayed by corporations, who throw an ass ton of money at politicians if they give them leniency on laws and tax breaks.
No, the billionaires are still controlling the government- they lobby so people don't get too uppity and change things too much for them so they can still be rich and laugh at the poors and marginalized.
the gag when they’re all the same people
So what's being done here. On the surface of it without reading too deeply. Is an incestuous relationship between the banking sector the 4th estate and big tech along with government entities to precisely control speculation in our b******* stock market and other investments by precisely controlling a large portion of our society's behavior. This is largely accomplished through algorithmic manipulation and outright censorship. of content online.
Add in fabrication and misdirection by the 4th estate and promoted social influencers and you have yourself a powerful tool to manipulate the public in the direction you would like them to go for your financial and governmental ends.
Id like to say to anyone out there, one day I just grew tired of the noise. I watch a fair bit of yt, but I don't have FB, and other social media anymore. and I feel it drastically improved my life and mood.
Same. I use YT only. Quit FB in like 2015 and never used Twitter or anything else.
Same. Aside from RUclips, I only use Reddit and that’s mostly just for cats & hobby groups.
Yup same, I feel like this has been the move for a lot of people lately. Maybe I’m being a boomer but the internet has gone sharply downhill over the past 5 years or so. All the main social media sites are now over saturated with adds and “recommended posts” generated by their algorithms. It used to be a space created by and for the people, but now it’s just a curated experience designed to sell you shit products and shit ideas, with the revenue used to fund even more shit ideas like the metaverse and crypto schemes.
@@ElLapiz24 Interestingly, I feel like that was Google's original appeal as a search engine, and the reason they put all the other search engines to shame was it's simplicity and the fact you weren't bombarded by ads and links.

Yeah. I never liked facebook in the first place. I am not a vain person to tell all my achievements into the ether. I have fb only for the messenger, and Twitter for horny drawings. YT is all the social I need. I've actually been proven wrong once, so I can tell that this free speech is working :3

I wouldn't combat misinformation. What people should be doing is learning to draw their own conclusions based on research. My dad taught me this when I was 5. He took me to a cemetery and showed me a grave that had my name on it. He told me that it was my other half that was born with me and he didn't survive. I was deep in thought about it on the car ride home, but something didn't feel right, so I asked to go back. After seeing the date of 1963, I knew he was full of it. It was my uncle who died young, and I'm just named after him. My dad's point was to not believe everything you are told and draw your own conclusions no matter who you get the information from.

You can still get some of that by going to the dark web forums (use VPN and tor) only issue is that the unmoderated ones often turn into endless circle jerking of racist jokes and racial slurs (I wish I was exaggerating) because for whatever reason, there's a specific group of people who desperately crave to type out racial slurs and they all flok to these forums as some kind of catharsis.
However, there are some good moderated forums that are done very well in the dark web, that allow freedom of expression and any topic, but will remove all the pointless hate slurs from the mix. So you can actually have civil conversations, anonymously, and the discussions can get very interesting.

A lot of people argue that “I have nothing to hide, why does it matter?”. Well, you aren’t the one to decide whether or not you have something to hide- they are. They dictate what is allowed and what is not. You may have nothing to hide now, but when hiding a jewish child in your attic becomes a crime, then you’ll realize how important your privacy is.

It wasn't a distraction, they were a tool. It still matters today to call them out because if we don't they will keep being the tool the government uses to do whatever the hell it wants.
