hopelessly optimistic. the majority of people on the net, and in the world in general aren't beautiful snowflakes. they truly can be summarized by their name, how many friends they have, the clothes they're wearing in their profile pictures. as the world population's exposure to itself increases, so is there a correlating drop in its propensity, and arguably capacity, for original thought. uniqueness is a dwindling market and moot either refuses to recognize this, or ignores it for business.
This is way better than his shitty TED talk. I've always felt that talk was a huge wasted opportunity. I'm glad to see him talking about something real instead of just explaining memes to a bunch of people.
@RyanSocratous The solution is for people to use Facebook/Google+ less and his own site more. The problem is people's usage patterns, and there's always an easy solution for that.
MySpace was the fucking place to be circa 06/07, I remember it being so much better back then than facebook is now, the great thing about MySpace was that you could express yourself a hell of a lot more.
It just goes to show that Mootie doesn't speak a lot. That mouth thing he does, or even drooling while speaking is a known indicator of someone who doesn't speak much outloud. Even though he's a great public speaker. Similar things happens to me haha.
@AndyTalkMedia I don't think it's about being anonymous (you can already make an account under any name you want). It's about having the ability to take on different identities within different groups. Which no one says you can't. You could just have a facebook for friends, a facebook for family, a facebook for work, and a facebook for your hacking community. But I think his point is more about how we weren't hiding behind handles, because our handles were part of our identity.
@LeadBeIIy i hear what you're saying, this is a tough topic cause no side is necessarily wrong. i just think with every person out their who is anonymous and is doing good stuff & still being a decent human being, there's 10 more ppl being absolutely horrible and taking advantage the ability to be anonymous. I'm all for groups like "anonymous" cause they do cool stuff with their anonymity, but i've honestly never been on 4chan and thought "these look like they could be upstanding, good people"
Please visit my channel for the unpopular truth about homosexuality.
A person does not need hatred or any kind of phobia in order to acknowledge important differences between heterosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption and homosexual attraction / behavior / marriage / adoption. Even non-religious people know this.
Homosexual activists, with support from the media, have succeeded at framing themselves as noble victims; it's an effective way to push a social agenda.
He makes some pretty interesting points. But thanks to @BradTheProducer I cannot unsee the resemblance to Sigourney Weaver, thus I can't watch this video seriously anymore. Thanks a lot, Brad.
Interesting observation. While facebook enforces true identity and real name, twitter has allowed several pseudonyms and handles, allowing people to build a kind of twitter brand that is reinforced with a consistent theme of tweets, but starts with a creative name, a name that has a large impact on who chooses to follow you.
What makes anyone think Moot is any sort of authority on internet culture or content creation? Literally all he has done is copy a Japanese imageboard. He played no part in content creation and very little part in the community. He's the host, not the leader.
Just look at canv.as, the guy doesn't know jack shit about web design and thinks content creation can be achieved in a factory environment and not as a by product of a community.
ok funky 80's hair aside- this was a great summation of how the one paneled identity-based system is flawed, he made some really great points, there is an opportunity for innovation,
@doctorpickles79 Well he's one of the few advocates for identity. Are you secretly an advocate for identity, doctorpickles79? If not, then you should be happy that he's actually standing up for something that is of value to us all.
Plus was shit.
