The internet went bad with money

[French Fry]

Remember when most of the fun shit you'd come across online was mostly done by people with spare time? Nowadays it seems every video, article, piece of art, is all done for monetary compensation. People desperately trying to make a living off of their content, and it shows with a lack of soul. Can't watch a video without a paid sponsor or having it be drawn out to unnecessary lengths for ad revenue. Everyone is always asking for money, and ten years ago, it would've been frowned upon. What happened?

Cost of living went up for the average person? Content creators making big £££ can suck a fat one though

well i just spent two months making something on a 90s kid software for pure, creative reasons and you’ve still not watched it French Fry, so i think you can watch your ad-ridden soulless YouTube garbage with your mouth firmly shut. Its the type of content your type deserves.

Lol the internet

[Plopilpy]

I give my regards to the internet. Lol the internet.

[Dungeon Snake]

Im going to start being the change i want to see. im going back to reading blogs and forums, fuck twitter and facebook.

The whole creator economy is so tiresome. With shit like NFTs being peddled into video games, like microtransactions on an open marketplace, everything needs to have some kind of financial incentive.

[Pvt Sherman]

well is the big company and influencer that ruined the internet, and that's why i still go to 3dmm forum and 4chan because is the only thing that i can think of when i picture freedom of expression on the internet

This is the end result of a Jew infiltrated capitalist economy - people wanting to get rich quick so they can buy a bunch of pointless shit, or to keep up with the Joneses. The messaging we receive all day long is that our worth is attached to our bank accounts or our stockpiles of sweatshop built Amazon garbage. You can't even watch a 2 minute long video without a bunch of 15 second ads popping up. The amount of ads has gotten significantly worse over the last few years, but it's also the strategies that have become more conniving too, such as burying ads toward the end of clips. I haven't even touched on electronic devices like cellphones or Alexa literally spying on you and tailoring your ads accordingly. It's basically the real world from the Matrix, except you're being pumped for your income.

One of the best parts is that I actually tried to pay for YT Premium because I listen to a lot of music from it, and they won't allow me to set up a subscription (it's all handled via Google) unless I send them a pic of my ID and some utility bills to prove my identity. Sorry, Shlomo, it ain't happening.

What

[Anthropophagus]

Being a content creator is fine if you are producing meaningful or worthwhile entertainment. It's no different than any television show, insomuch as it's visual media, and the quality varies in the same way. What galls me is the vapid trash out there, such as reaction videos, people "explaining" movies or shows and literally just saying what happened (versus legitimate analysis), and the lowest of all, the streamer whores and girls dancing/flaunting their bodies on apps like TikTok and Instagram. The latter is grade A Hebrew filth; it's porn, which they overwhelmingly control and produce, on a home brew level. Porn used to be something that low rent companies made and maybe your friend's parents had their own sex tape stashed away, but the new era of less-explicit porn I'm referring to demonstrates that normal people have now been infected with degeneracy, especially our younger women. I can't imagine what Western society will look like in 50 years at the rate we're going.

I did some math.

The money I've earned from doing newspapers for several years could get me 30 pairs of these: https://www.bestbuy.ca/en-ca/product...phone/14335016


So, contrary to your beliefs, I would not need to "go back to my wagecage" to save up to buy headphones.


Merry Christmas!

I gotta pull double duty over here. Although I'm definitely more of a red pill version of him. Andres was firmly socialist, bordering on communist, with some of the ideas I remember him espousing (maybe incorrectly all these years later).

What do you think hitler would have done?

[Bown]

It’s so weird how comfortable some people are with being so overtly anti-Semitic these days

[Anthropophagus]

It's no weirder than how it's totally acceptable to be anti-white these days. There are a number of public statements and news articles that would be deemed horrifically racist if one were to swap "white" with an afflicted group. Coincidentally enough, a lot of anti-white propaganda that is not peddled by people of color seems to be coming from Jews. No group has worked harder to vilify prejudice against itself to point of making it illegal than Jews, which is another worrisome trait. Don't be a putz.

[Kane]

I've heard a rumour that you are in fact a jew. Can you confirm or deny?
