Powering Down For the Greater Good. My Protest Against Authoritarianism

in blurt •  3 years ago 

yeah thats really true, today was the first time on the whole platform I did see a few arguments and it's only cause I was looking at a few witnesses etc to see who to add. The most I saw was a tiny bit of disagreement and powering down haha. Disagreements are healthy really it's only when someone with more stake can completely silence you into submission it's such an issue.

Yep, I suppose there are arguments, I just never go looking for them.

I honestly didn't realise there were any at all till I was looking through a few witness posts lol all I see is supportive people who want a peaceful life tbh. I guess once it gets busier there will be a few more. I got someone on my YouTube the other day type 'cringe what the hell is this' went to his page and under all his videos several people had written cringe, so clearly he just auto comments on things knowing negative comments like that make people go and check the channel to see who it is. People are so crazy these days I swear they can't just focus on building something people want to go and check out or by engaging with people in a positive way, they only know how to get attention from negativity.

That was one of the reasons I left the UK, so many negative people, and oh so argumentative, especially in Birmingham as it had a mass influx of people from abroad that do not want to mix with anyone outside their own religious ideologies.
Youtube is one of my pet hates, I never comment on there now as people just want to argue on there.

Our weather doesn't help no doubt haha

there are some really cool people here but yeah I am sure in some countries people have more to worry about than what is on social media, for some perspective. I think a big problem is too much time spent online and not making real connections, I notice it myself from being online way more over corona, it's easier to just get involved in these things. Trying to limit to specific online times lol else it's easy to lose hours and just get caught up in pointless back and forward arguing over topics. I swear some of the things people say online they wouldn't dream of saying in person. Even the downvoting can you imagine if these people just kept coming and taking £40 out of your pocket lol.
