Reason 1: We're tracked. Basically saying that we're tracked through our phones and credit cards.
Reason 2: "Thought crime." Basically complaining about deplatforming. Then extends to saying some countries will jail you for "wrong-think".
Reason 3: Big Tech. Bemoaning that we use Google and Facebook and a few other services for most communication. Also Apple/Google/Etc pay.
Reason 4: Sheeple. Aka "most people are fine with it".
It's just all sort of alt-righty conspiracy-lite ranting.
- pixxel 6y agoI’ve not watched the video. Are the 4 reasons you’ve listed “alt- righty conspiracy-lite” or is that in the video?
- vaidhy 6y agoIt is from the video.. However, I am not sure why it is alt-right conspiracy-lite. I can see 1, 3 and 4 being mostly true. I am not too sure about 2 - but expressing your thoughts can be a crime - lese majeste laws in Thailand come to mind.
- MaurizioPz 6y agoThis is not the vibe I got from the video, I used to follow the author and he is quite prominent in the linux world... Is linux and OSS alt-right?
- bena 6y agoIt's more the video itself. It has a very "most people don't know this, wake up sheeple" vibe.
- sharemywin 6y agoDeplatforming is not an alt-right problem. Users need better options for disputing company policies. When the algorithms get something wrong and your banned how should that be handled? We are tracked way too much. And companies are usually way to vulnerable to hacking. Again more of a mainstream issue that politicians look the other way on. #3 youtube is great service in some respects but complete shit in others. The biggest issue is just getting rid of it off your phone. or blocking it off a roku. And the point was there are some options but people don't use them.
