> So how do you get your message out without spending money? You use the fact people who won't listen unless you spend money won't hear your message. > Spending money is how people with novel ideas expose it to more people and can hope to compete against established ideas that don’t need to be marketed. It's also how you mix and dilute your idea into an ocean of meritless crap that nobody would care about unless someone spent money to have the likes of Facebook and Google shout it at them. It particularly cements the idea that the only way to get novel (usually you'd aim for "good") ideas heard is by paying money to Facebook, Google or that other big media conglomerate (where their money buys "nation-wide local" "news"). Problem is, people with the good novel ideas are usually not the parties with a lot of money (because both are statistically rare). And that means that the parties with a lot of money will decide which people get heard at all. Regardless whether they have good ideas, novel ideas, or even remotely plausible ideas.
