RE: The Politics Of Consumerism: The Cult Of Celebrity

in #informationwar7 years ago (edited)

Totally nailed it!

Could you also share an opinion particularly about the relation between Facebook/Instagram and consumerism?

The tech corp groups including social media companies seems to be completely neutral to the show. Or rather say...they benefit the most.

Sort:  

I see anything but neutrality when it comes to social media... For example if you look on YouTube at what's trending- it's always mindless pablum from some insipid Millennial. That's because that's what they push in the name of "neutrality" It's neutral in the sense that it's banal, but content that has meaning is demonitarized and often hidden.

I stopped checking what's featured on their home page long time ago, but I would agree. Well, now we have the responsibility not to repeat the YouTube and other big fishes' bad patterns with dTube for example.
