I wish i could pinpoint when normies first looked inside the internet and went *oh no, this cant be*
And tumblr existing
you'd think they'd know better
internet messages are pretty much like how grafitti used to be like
bitch its been like that since before I was 8
restriction of speech is stupid, the words of the extremists aren't too dangerous
moderates can be more powerful and have a larger impact
for example, Aussie over here hasn't threatened violence against anyone
they're left extremists, they need to control language like any extremist
well, letting extremists voice their views is good
if a person starts saying "of the 20 people in this room, i'll kill 17 when i get into power"
the 19 people in the room then know to never have him get to power
MSM saw the war between 4chan and Tumblr and then figured that represented how the world was.
it technically is, it was a meme war between the very people in a society
screw the couple of million of soldiers that fight every now and then
internet is a battle between anyone with a voice
also, left extremists need censoring because if theres no one to say how stupid a persons views are, then those that have no view are bound by that stupid view instead of finding a better sensible alternative
all of the extremists in the west will just dissolve if social media stops producing echo chambers
I dont think anyone should be censored... view points will fall apart when put up under real scruntity..
well echo chambers are social media in working
since you can block any opinion you don't like, and can quickly associate with those you do
BAM... echo chamber
the issue is thye only have the observations of those who they like to engage with (not nessicarily people with their political opinion)
So, blow up Facebook. Hold on, let me start up fight club and put on my guy fawks mask
nah, no need for that extreme
But I could claim it for the name of Islam and watch everything really go to shit
still blows my mind that politicians bow down to loud people on twitter
at some point, everyone on social media will be so divided into small groups that fully agree, that they realise they have 0 impact cuz they're too divided, and they'll start forming bigger "we agree on some issues" again
until it boils down into a bigger group of yelling
forming groups to advocate for something is completely fine
The natural flow of things
you need to do that to get messages across to the powerful
otherwise it would just be noise
they die, some new problem emerges, many agree, the point gets across, repeat
the cycle is getting shorter and shorter (especially for the left)
and more extreme
THE CYCLE
the liberalists
Menstrual?
Pendulum of memes
well what will happen is it will culminate into 2 big groups, the biggest wanting to remain big so they work on containing the smaller group
which will cause people to split off to join the other group
and then they are in charge and remember the bad containing so they decide to break it free again so everyone can have their say
just like conservative right 50 years ago turning to the bigger left now, and slowly people see its bad and they want freedom again (like voting Trump etc)
it will sort itself out in due time
memes are just a catalyst
shows how stupid authority figures are for getting upset over them, weakening their status towards the internet folk
but bed time for me, it was fun discussing and arguing, disagreeing and agreeing, we should do it again sometime
cheerios
memes are a catalyst for our political direction, culture clashes, etc
thats pretty amazing and fucking scary all at once
So, you're saying that memes move politics? <:Kappa:327142715592540171>
