So any passable content will do
You'll have audience
Is not hard to get audience
Is hard to keep up the good content
Yeah but they need to know they want it first.
Not necessarily. Some vloggers just publishing good content and people follow/subscribe and keep watching. Advertisement is easy. Like I did promotions for that political channel I've been talking about and it was easy
Good content = easy advertisement
Though something I like seeing lately is the exploitation of "pipelines". Jim Stirling is a video games -> leftism pipeline, Contrapoints and Philosophy Tube are an acting -> Leftism pipeline, Jack Saint and Big Joel are a movie critic -> leftism pipeline, etc.
Bad content = nothing will help
What are pipelines?
The alt right already have this down to an art, so it's good to see we're catching up.
For example, in the current YouTube meta there's kinda a gaming -> right wing and skeptic -> right wing pipeline right now.
Especially since the YouTube algorithm often associates them as similar content.
For that we have to have a lot of channels and yes it's helpful but absolutely not critical if we don't have it.
Creating unique content is critical
It doesn't really have to be a lot though. One good one can suffice if it's accepted as a fresh perspective.
Again, Jim Stirling is a shining light in the "video games journalism" crowd.
Links pls
I bet this single video has radicalized at least a few people. https://youtu.be/HmW0GhdDOvw
Looks interesting
tldr: investors always want more, more, more stock profit growth at the expense of user experience and the people working there.
Yeah.
Great I'll watch more of it.
Thanks
He's not faultless though. His messaging has become a little *too* consistent, so unless there's new happenings I don't watch his new videos cuz it's kinda repetitive.
I still propose you join leftypol and help us with social media
But hey, I bet the YouTube algorithm likes his kind of content. Consistently produced and usually over 15 minutes, about a popular subject.
806K subscribers isn't bad for a leftist channel.
It seems he is doing it right
39k Maoist Rebel News < 806k Sterling
I saw someone advocating hate for a religious person who wouldn't go to a gay wedding, and I saw the left cheering on that hatred
@Apple O'Day can you be more specific?
you think western left-wingers are saint? They have no hate?
Western left wingers love to sniff their own farts a little too much
Living in relative safety and peace they tend to advocate for legit pieces of shit in far away lands because for them it’s like cheering for the team
Being removed from the consequences of whatever choice they support
Ironically, I became radicalized by western literature and western communities, but oh my god lots of people online just jerk off to theory and jump on whatever cause is popular now without gaining any understanding of complex issues at all
Like Middle Eastern politics
@(import (srfi 151)) not half the people you think are "alt right" actually are.
The left is the one indoctrinating people into hate, not the right. The left is the one accusing others of being racist, of hating religious people, demonizing those that would choose to save an unborn child, using congressional investigations to harrass, ect. It is not the right.
A leftist pipeline will result in people starting to listen only for hate speech when their opponents speak rather than listen to what they are saying
