He does have quite an ego when you consider his beliefe that he makes manifest things such as the global subconscious as opposed to had been himself manifested into that state by beings beyond the vail. He has often held the resentful position of believing he is going to be the one to bring people into prosperity and he says it with such distain though this bothers him but also to state in a way that he believes of course its him like hes doing us a favor. He accepted people wanted to hear his opinions, and he has grown to like the attention or has embraced the attention. Coupling this with his preference to avoid ever acknowleding or considering any opinions or claims that are contradictory to his own he has developed an unralistic view of other peoples ciritism and that is that they aren;t valid because they contradict him. Im not really trying to sling arrows, some times hes right about things to an extent but he lacks a lot of experience andd wisdom. He tells people about these sorts of situations that largely could never exist but people want to believe they will. There are a number of circumstances that he has talked about that I can not see ever coming to fruition with out significant interest abd actions on everyones part. Which to get people to agree on anything even half of the time is a major feat. People need to give more thought to the answers they are being given and then look at the world and compare them and make a real educated decision about whether it looks more like we will do what he said or that we will stay the same. or how much more likely we would take a 3rd path which is between both places and accounts for the issues of old and the needs of tomorrow. HE just needs more time to really meditate on these things and consider everything a little more completely. Honestly to me he comes off sounding like an intellectualist with a mesiah complex like any with a mesianic complex they all mean well. even I can exhibit some messianic qulitities but I can not give what God can give. No man can. well, one man can the actual Christ but that would be God the first anointed. hatguy does for the most part fight a good fight.

You put your finger on the hypocrisy of corporatism. But the game is multilevel, my friend. Solving the logical sociopolitical and economic problems is not the pragmatic issue. It's a red herring meant to protect the status quo. Both by distracting you with useless analysis and identifying you as an idealistic threat to the existing order. I mean it's not a logistical or intellectual problem in fact. Clearly we know how it all works technically and socially. So why is still ruled by money? It's a honey-pot for idealism. Yes the world is a feudal kingdom tiled by the elite and that has never been more true than in the past century of superpower empires with captive populations and territories that span the habitable spaces of the globe. And if you are more interested in fairness for all, or freedom, or Lovingkindness for all living beings, being obviously more important than money, wealth, and power, -- then you are a threat to civilization as it stands. A Revolutionary figure. And more power to you! But don't be naive about why things do not change under the force of activism, unless and until activism itself becomes a tool of maintaining control by the old order. The hypocrisy that outrages is political bait for young troublemakers to tag themselves with. In general. Every human group I have ever been a part of has a logical fallacy at its heart. A contradiction that cannot be acknowledged. If you prefer ideal truth, in any domain, to being in the group then you are a danger to leadership and therefore to the group itself. In religion, it's contradictions that force you to submit to a book or a priest instead of getting good questions answered. This is engineered! A feature of societies, not a bug. In pure mathematics, the fallacy is a metaphysical assertion about various "infinite" concepts, that means that real number theory is the foundation of a logical house of cards. This is the most logical field of endeavor ever invented by humans, as far as I know. The other fields are no different, in being based on group loyalty over "truth". Mostly though I would say the issue is not about believing in bullshit. Most people are not that stupid or needy. The issue is maintaining the social position of profession, club inclusion, popular reputation, etc. You are rewarded for loyalty above correctness everywhere, and the tests are placed intentionally at the foundation of every academy, church, courthouse, club, and professional association. And now, tech platforms too. I can't do it, personally. I prefer homelessness! It's a joy by comparison with human social bullshit, and that is no exaggeration.

Hey man.. I saw your video about cancer years ago and I could relate with how the realities of the world we live in sucked the joy out of you, making everything else seem obsolete while contemplating our inability to change any of it meaningfully. Almost 8 years later I'm struggling to keep the plot, I feel like I'm being stuck in a constant state of cognitive dissonance where the information my senses are giving me is conflicting with what my mind believes to be true. I can't hope to get any help without loosing my career.. I feel like I'm in a race against the clock but the finish line is a cliff. A cliff which I always raced to but never became aware of it's existence before recently. A cliff that precedes a fall that only gets longer the more I accept my awareness of it. The largest minds that has the deepest hearts are bound to know suffering like no others. I hope I can soon gather the strenght to seek professional help, I know I've been needing it for a while now. I sometime curse the scales of this world, why are the ones to be overly conscious only to better observe our own demise? I think that we have a purpose, and a very important one, in the peculiar way we process information. I will surf your channel that I've just found, perhaps I can find some courage if you talk about your diagnostic.
what you aaid at about 13 minutes is basically the whole spirit of what you said as to what we need to do not only beed to do this with social media, but with rcerything as a society trying to solve problems. our unceasing pursuit of individuality needs to be balanced with a level of collectivism where we share our experiences to solve problems without someone with more money telling society that they can't.
How is it only now that I've heard of you. It's an honor to have found you @xkcdHatGuy 🥰✌🌻 May your life journey be full of love and a place to share ALL the insight your beautiful mind had to offer.
Right, but a platform like Twitter is an established company. The concepts of "Decentralization" and "corporate company" don't really mix, especially in a Capitalist society.
@@DeathToUsernames0101 Right, but i wasn't talking about Twitter, just Decentralization in general. I don't use Twitter nor will i ever want to. I'd like to keep my mental health ;) "Capitalistic society", we're using Keynesian Economics which basically favors data above anything else disregarding human behavior and emotions. We should've used Austrian Economics.
@@anu1776 Well then, you should have said "my future" and not just leave it up to interpretation. How are they going to sort us out if we're not specific enough about which way we bend *in the future* (;
I think Twitter should not be owned by any one person. People need to have their voices. However there needs to be protection against threats, violence, propoganda, spam bots etc.
There is a fix for that. Bitcoin. People can send bitcoin to ideas that are important or popular. You also can have bitcoin security deposit that can be taken away if you are malicious. Bitcoin is the only true decentralized and neutral form of money the people have
@@jaebrowne6780 Do you want any social media platform to have no rules? Such a scenario would be terrible as it would enable terrorism and other propaganda and unfriendly countries to corrupt and try ruin Western society with fake stories etc.

Much luv my dude
The hat guy is by far the most intriguing guy on this planet. Tysm for showing up and with content I have no understanding what you're talking about other than Elon and Twitter. Just love hearing everything you have to say. You always look genius too btw 😊
1. You are indeed cool and alpha 😎 2. I think the Internet could be a great tool for democracy and productive public discourse, eventually even as a substitute to a lot of old government structures. I'd even say the Internet could improve one of democracys greatest weaknesses: That it's slow. And ofc it would greatly impact representation and equality. But I don't think social media or rather twitter as we know it now should completely be replaced by this. Some people aren't interested in making a change or politics in general, so social media as a platform for conversation and sharing hobbies etc should still remain. (I don't think you disagree with this but wanted to point it out)
This is the dead internet theory where what we are actually arguing with is carefully curated AI's designed to hold our attention by gas lighting us which in turn drives social division.
Love to see you back and glad to see your still putting problems/ideas things that just need to be discussed out in universe! Dose everyone have a purpose?
Democracy has the same inherent flaw as most other forms of government. The purpose of government is to protect people from the bad decisions of others, that is the purpose of law itself. Democracy forces individuals to suffer due to the choices of others. Under monarchy, the population suffers due to the choices of the monarch. Under democracy, minorities suffer due to the choices of the majority. I wrote an entire paper on the solution. Maybe I'll make a UA-cam video on it one day.
@@allthelittleworms Democracy is definitely better, but it is imperfect. My solution would be to allow every individual to live under their preferred form of government. That way, instead of some forcing others to live under a certain form of government, people will only suffer due to their own stupid decisions in choosing what government they wanted to live under. Why must everyone live under the same form of government? Isn't it a person's right to opt out of living under a certain form of control?
No, "minorities" who actually make up a majority lose to the "majority" which is actually the minority when it comes to voter turn out for bills to be voted into laws. The majority of people voting for bills are elderly white people who are typically conservative . Iits not the government that did this to anybody it was the people who did it to themselves. They pushed the responsibiliies to the government to make decisions and give up their voice in the situation. A debate is great but it does nothing if it doesn't affect change. You can debate with all of the people you want to about how things should work and how they should be but if you aren't exercising your authority to direct those changes your debate means nothing. Its idle chatter with out result or meaningful conclusion. The solution is one of two things we need immutably unimpeachable people in all of the seats of power which isn't so easy to do, and or 2 we need citizen participation from way more people and they need to learn that their votes don't count at election time they count the rest of the time. Out side of people taking up their civil duties there really isn't much else in the way of solutions.
I really love how you are somehow mentioning that the structure of how a website can affect sociological views as well as can potentially cause them. Any media reflects the state and thought processes of a culture at a specific increment of time. We sensationalized a lot of pain because the structure that is in place. Break down the structure and build up the people, and we may have something.
For public ownership to work everyone has to be on the same wavelength. For it to be a true communal product censorship of ideas must end, and everyone's contributions must be treated with equal value. The state of society leads me to believe this would be difficult, if not impossible, unless you have a major shift in public attitude and thought. Although the corporate elite are the ones who enforce the censorship far too many people are happy to see it happen, like schoolyard children. "You don't agree with me? Be gone with you."
You look awesome! It's like a blast from the past when I watched all your early vids. You still have that way of fascinating people with your natural unique style. The thing I learned at this point in my life is it's ALLLL about money. Entirely. The one's with the most money have the most power and the most control. That's been since the being of the monetary system and always will be. Whatever the average person is guided to do is strictly to make the rich richer. Any so called "good" that comes from it is strictly by default. This is only a smoke screen to make us feel like life is improving. It's not.
xkcdhatguy , hello, nice to see you! in fact i'm full of joy just seeing you or hearing you! you know Joy just simple joy :) thanks just to be! hope my english make sence :)
When XKCDHATGUY talks he's just being honest. It's when he TELLS you he's being honest that you feel insulted. Lol at the "zoomers"! Wait.... am I a Zoomer? 😶
you say that, but people as old as 25 could be considered zoomers and using these generalizations only further makes you see people as objectifiable groups
As a borderline zoomer I can agree 100% that most zoomers suck at staying on one problem for as long as it's probably necessary to actually solve it. It's kind of a curse. Great that you're still making vids though! Edit: As someone who just watched to the end and read the information on the site...I'm not a user or even a fan of crypto, but if you could actually use it for a good cause, this would for sure be it.
Good video, and good work as always. I think you've naturally arrived at the tenants espoused by socialism. You mention multiple times the idea of public ownership of the site since we do the work creating the social media scene. This is literally the core philosophy of socialism. Just something to think about, it seems like your always stating things which run parallel to these ideas.
A World that's running by few individuals that took power in their hands is a World we don't want to live in but we still do. . . we are being caught in a "free World" we're living a freedome that's everything but free. A pessimist will say the glass is half empty an optimist will say it's half full but both will agree nowdays that our future as a civilization is not looking too much bright. . .
Imagine a world where that which we vote, but we can not see the face of the individuals, only the voice and the policies. I wonder how that would work.
That’s a fantastic point about how the government should be neutrally looking to solve a puzzle rather than trying to appeal to ‘sides’ and battling inside itself … so much energy wasted
they want the vote. if we voted on policies instead of who we want to make the choices for us like a bunch of children shit like that wouldn't be happening.
Brilliant,I think working with you would be exponentially impact for an larger scale,although the execution of place being and attributions..is a problem. I will subscribe to your Patreon and your Twitter and UA-cam.
I love how much your videos remind me of old school youtube, but it genuinely might help your case to present your videos more professionally. That would probably n a psychological level make your videos and by extension your ideas more compelling to listen to. It's a small thing but powerful.
How can everyday people make informed choices when there is so much misinformation and disinformation that the facts are kept unclear. We do not have a trusted source anymore to create an informed decision. Also the collective are not all equipped to think critically and observe topics from opposing positions. For a public run social communication system to work how would we tackle these obstacles?
Unfortunately the origins of Facebook are not what most perceive. It was/is a DARPA project for data collection/control. In a perfect world it would be nice to have FB, Twitter, etc belong to the people but they don't and we are just a dollar to them. How many real relationships are forged thru these platforms? It's kind of like trying to find true love at a local bar you know? I love how you think doll and as an old person I sleep better knowing the future in the hands of beautiful souls as yourself. Much love ❤️
well we live in a new day in age where being coherent doesn’t even matter. as long as you say something that has shock value, it will get pushed to the top whether it be a straight up lie or someone’s ridiculous opinion (& everyone has a right to their own opinion) but some people are on twitter solely just to rock the boat & those are typically the comments/tweets that get pushed to the top. you’d be asking a lot of humanity at this point to have topics of discussions that unite ideas vs. just straight up tearing someone down for the fun of it.

I know that might sound strange. But look, it's just the layout of a gaming arena. The game is multifaceted and multilayered. Nothing is as it seems, except for some stuff which is exactly what it looks like.
So what I am.poimting at is this gameplay scenario where some characters don't yet know the higher levels of the game where everything is pretty military and locked down by the old timers whose families have been playing these dungeons for _centuries_ . In the lower levels are trinkets and distractions, and the noobs all think the game is about that shiny happy looking stuff. I mean, if that's the game you're playing, then that is what the game is all about. For you.
But there are other levels. Even right in front of us, people are playing different games at different levels, sitting next to you on the couch or whatever.
Weirdly, this is something I learned from becoming a yogi, not a gamer. Kek kek kek

Hey man.. I saw your video about cancer years ago and I could relate with how the realities of the world we live in sucked the joy out of you, making everything else seem obsolete while contemplating our inability to change any of it meaningfully.
Almost 8 years later I'm struggling to keep the plot, I feel like I'm being stuck in a constant state of cognitive dissonance where the information my senses are giving me is conflicting with what my mind believes to be true. I can't hope to get any help without loosing my career.. I feel like I'm in a race against the clock but the finish line is a cliff. A cliff which I always raced to but never became aware of it's existence before recently. A cliff that precedes a fall that only gets longer the more I accept my awareness of it.
The largest minds that has the deepest hearts are bound to know suffering like no others. I hope I can soon gather the strenght to seek professional help, I know I've been needing it for a while now.
I sometime curse the scales of this world, why are the ones to be overly conscious only to better observe our own demise? I think that we have a purpose, and a very important one, in the peculiar way we process information.
I will surf your channel that I've just found, perhaps I can find some courage if you talk about your diagnostic.
what you aaid at about 13 minutes is basically the whole spirit of what you said as to what we need to do not only beed to do this with social media, but with rcerything as a society trying to solve problems. our unceasing pursuit of individuality needs to be balanced with a level of collectivism where we share our experiences to solve problems without someone with more money telling society that they can't.
HE LIVES
How is it only now that I've heard of you. It's an honor to have found you @xkcdHatGuy 🥰✌🌻 May your life journey be full of love and a place to share ALL the insight your beautiful mind had to offer.
Decentralization, seems like a word that's going to be used way more in the future.
Right, but a platform like Twitter is an established company. The concepts of "Decentralization" and "corporate company" don't really mix, especially in a Capitalist society.
@@DeathToUsernames0101 Right, but i wasn't talking about Twitter, just Decentralization in general. I don't use Twitter nor will i ever want to. I'd like to keep my mental health ;)
"Capitalistic society", we're using Keynesian Economics which basically favors data above anything else disregarding human behavior and emotions. We should've used Austrian Economics.
It is the SOLE PATH to freedom. The centralization of power strips individuals of freedom
@@chrism4008 I agree my friend
@@anu1776 Well then, you should have said "my future" and not just leave it up to interpretation. How are they going to sort us out if we're not specific enough about which way we bend *in the future* (;
I think Twitter should not be owned by any one person.
People need to have their voices.
However there needs to be protection against threats, violence, propoganda, spam bots etc.
Who fact checks the fact checkers?
There is a fix for that. Bitcoin. People can send bitcoin to ideas that are important or popular. You also can have bitcoin security deposit that can be taken away if you are malicious.
Bitcoin is the only true decentralized and neutral form of money the people have
Lol can’t have your cake and eat it too
@@jaebrowne6780
Do you want any social media platform to have no rules?
Such a scenario would be terrible as it would enable terrorism and other propaganda and unfriendly countries to corrupt and try ruin Western society with fake stories etc.
happy to see you back
Thank you for staying active dude, everything you put out is very interesting
Your brilliance amazes me and keeps me in awe thank you for everything you’ve done for us through these magical years you’ve been on the internet
I think you're on the correct path but just bc it makes sense or is correct that doesn't mean people will go with it because of a mill different reasons some dumb, some substancial and you can't let that shit bother your mental again. I know how maddening it is to have a correct answer and nobody cares. Tldr you can lead a horse to water but u can't make it drink, even if it's dying of thirst....so don't let it ruin you. Much luv my dude
The hat guy is by far the most intriguing guy on this planet. Tysm for showing up and with content I have no understanding what you're talking about other than Elon and Twitter. Just love hearing everything you have to say. You always look genius too btw 😊
1. You are indeed cool and alpha 😎
2. I think the Internet could be a great tool for democracy and productive public discourse, eventually even as a substitute to a lot of old government structures.
I'd even say the Internet could improve one of democracys greatest weaknesses: That it's slow.
And ofc it would greatly impact representation and equality.
But I don't think social media or rather twitter as we know it now should completely be replaced by this. Some people aren't interested in making a change or politics in general, so social media as a platform for conversation and sharing hobbies etc should still remain. (I don't think you disagree with this but wanted to point it out)
You speak on an incredible level. I just now found this channel. Mind blown!
Omg i just re found your channel, you are an amazing human! Keep making these bomb ass videos!
This is the dead internet theory where what we are actually arguing with is carefully curated AI's designed to hold our attention by gas lighting us which in turn drives social division.
Love to see you back and glad to see your still putting problems/ideas things that just need to be discussed out in universe! Dose everyone have a purpose?
Democracy has the same inherent flaw as most other forms of government. The purpose of government is to protect people from the bad decisions of others, that is the purpose of law itself. Democracy forces individuals to suffer due to the choices of others. Under monarchy, the population suffers due to the choices of the monarch. Under democracy, minorities suffer due to the choices of the majority. I wrote an entire paper on the solution. Maybe I'll make a UA-cam video on it one day.
eh democracy is one of the few things that can make it better. I guess we won't really know until we have real democracy right?
@@allthelittleworms Democracy is definitely better, but it is imperfect. My solution would be to allow every individual to live under their preferred form of government. That way, instead of some forcing others to live under a certain form of government, people will only suffer due to their own stupid decisions in choosing what government they wanted to live under. Why must everyone live under the same form of government? Isn't it a person's right to opt out of living under a certain form of control?
@@allthelittleworms india is a proper democracy and it sucks for the majority here
@@saurabhponkshe blame your politicians
No, "minorities" who actually make up a majority lose to the "majority" which is actually the minority when it comes to voter turn out for bills to be voted into laws. The majority of people voting for bills are elderly white people who are typically conservative . Iits not the government that did this to anybody it was the people who did it to themselves. They pushed the responsibiliies to the government to make decisions and give up their voice in the situation. A debate is great but it does nothing if it doesn't affect change. You can debate with all of the people you want to about how things should work and how they should be but if you aren't exercising your authority to direct those changes your debate means nothing. Its idle chatter with out result or meaningful conclusion.
The solution is one of two things we need immutably unimpeachable people in all of the seats of power which isn't so easy to do, and or 2 we need citizen participation from way more people and they need to learn that their votes don't count at election time they count the rest of the time. Out side of people taking up their civil duties there really isn't much else in the way of solutions.
okay just let me rewatch all your videos 10 yrs ago and then I'LL WATCH THIS. Common man I've waited years for your vids:>
I really love how you are somehow mentioning that the structure of how a website can affect sociological views as well as can potentially cause them. Any media reflects the state and thought processes of a culture at a specific increment of time. We sensationalized a lot of pain because the structure that is in place. Break down the structure and build up the people, and we may have something.
oh nice, a new upload from my favorite youtuber.
I just hope you know where ever you are in life no matter what shit gets better
I'm not the person who needs to hear that.
@@thexkcdHatGuy lol
@@thexkcdHatGuy the fact that you responded to that says otherwise. He may have just been putting the message out for other commenters
@@glass1258 Kafkatrap.
For public ownership to work everyone has to be on the same wavelength. For it to be a true communal product censorship of ideas must end, and everyone's contributions must be treated with equal value. The state of society leads me to believe this would be difficult, if not impossible, unless you have a major shift in public attitude and thought. Although the corporate elite are the ones who enforce the censorship far too many people are happy to see it happen, like schoolyard children. "You don't agree with me? Be gone with you."
They got you didn’t they 🤫
🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️😊😊😊thank you for all you do
Your postings show a really interesting mind! I just found your videos recently. Very intense with thought.
You look awesome! It's like a blast from the past when I watched all your early vids. You still have that way of fascinating people with your natural unique style. The thing I learned at this point in my life is it's ALLLL about money. Entirely. The one's with the most money have the most power and the most control. That's been since the being of the monetary system and always will be. Whatever the average person is guided to do is strictly to make the rich richer. Any so called "good" that comes from it is strictly by default. This is only a smoke screen to make us feel like life is improving. It's not.
xkcdhatguy , hello, nice to see you! in fact i'm full of joy just seeing you or hearing you! you know Joy just simple joy :) thanks just to be!
hope my english make sence :)
Amazing how your message gets distributed to us without offending all sides of the table. Good to see and hear you again.
It's been a long day Xkcd. Been watching you're videos for a long time now, glad to see you again hope you're healthy
Good to have you back buddy
When XKCDHATGUY talks he's just being honest. It's when he TELLS you he's being honest that you feel insulted. Lol at the "zoomers"!
Wait.... am I a Zoomer? 😶
you say that, but people as old as 25 could be considered zoomers and using these generalizations only further makes you see people as objectifiable groups
@Arsene Lupin III to say you can and that you should are different things
He was being honest, but he was also being illogical. He assumed they wouldn't listen and then ensured it by opening his mouth and spewing nonsense.
👁see you, Brother🙏
As a borderline zoomer I can agree 100% that most zoomers suck at staying on one problem for as long as it's probably necessary to actually solve it. It's kind of a curse.
Great that you're still making vids though!
Edit: As someone who just watched to the end and read the information on the site...I'm not a user or even a fan of crypto, but if you could actually use it for a good cause, this would for sure be it.

O, Great Hatted One
I suspected the glasses from the grass video might come back in the next one. ;)
you called it! look what is happening now in Ukraine with Starlink
I like the Freebird idea but a 176 billion market cap for the token seems unreachable
sadly yes
Good video, and good work as always. I think you've naturally arrived at the tenants espoused by socialism. You mention multiple times the idea of public ownership of the site since we do the work creating the social media scene. This is literally the core philosophy of socialism. Just something to think about, it seems like your always stating things which run parallel to these ideas.
Hatguy for president
Oh my gosh so good to see you again!
I JUST FOUND THIS GUY AGAIN FINNALYYYY
*Wow.. You totally grew into that DEEP BARRATONE voice of yours!!!!*
Welcomeeee backkkkk. We missed you so muchhh
A World that's running by few individuals that took power in their hands is a World we don't want to live in but we still do. . . we are being caught in a "free World" we're living a freedome that's everything but free. A pessimist will say the glass is half empty an optimist will say it's half full but both will agree nowdays that our future as a civilization is not looking too much bright. . .
Imagine a world where that which we vote, but we can not see the face of the individuals, only the voice and the policies. I wonder how that would work.
we effectively have thgat but we were given a person to point a finger at who was not the one making the decisions.
That’s a fantastic point about how the government should be neutrally looking to solve a puzzle rather than trying to appeal to ‘sides’ and battling inside itself … so much energy wasted
they want the vote. if we voted on policies instead of who we want to make the choices for us like a bunch of children shit like that wouldn't be happening.
Brilliant,I think working with you would be exponentially impact for an larger scale,although the execution of place being and attributions..is a problem.
I will subscribe to your Patreon and your Twitter and UA-cam.

How can everyday people make informed choices when there is so much misinformation and disinformation that the facts are kept unclear. We do not have a trusted source anymore to create an informed decision. Also the collective are not all equipped to think critically and observe topics from opposing positions. For a public run social communication system to work how would we tackle these obstacles?
Unfortunately the origins of Facebook are not what most perceive. It was/is a DARPA project for data collection/control. In a perfect world it would be nice to have FB, Twitter, etc belong to the people but they don't and we are just a dollar to them. How many real relationships are forged thru these platforms? It's kind of like trying to find true love at a local bar you know? I love how you think doll and as an old person I sleep better knowing the future in the hands of beautiful souls as yourself. Much love ❤️
Facebook is still a data collecting platform to fuel knowledge for ai

CLAIMING MY RARE EARLY COMMENT TICKET IN XCDHATGUY'S COMMENT SECTION
well we live in a new day in age where being coherent doesn’t even matter. as long as you say something that has shock value, it will get pushed to the top whether it be a straight up lie or someone’s ridiculous opinion (& everyone has a right to their own opinion) but some people are on twitter solely just to rock the boat & those are typically the comments/tweets that get pushed to the top. you’d be asking a lot of humanity at this point to have topics of discussions that unite ideas vs. just straight up tearing someone down for the fun of it.
You look so good man! Always love to see your uploads
