Like I know not everyone is a political commentator and won’t touch politics for fear of ostracizing their audience.

But sometimes seeing most creators not expressing any shock at these unprecedented times makes me think “damn this seems dystopian”.

I imagine what would the world be like if streaming was available during Hitlers rise.

Would people just be living in their bubble of “thanks for watching, hit like and subscribe, and if you use this code on simplisafe you’ll get 20 percent off!” winky face

Idk if I could do it, never talk about it or taking a stand. Its just too big to ignore. At least imo.

What do you guys think? Also lemmy wanted me to add a picture so here’s a picture of my dog.

    I refuse to believe 99 out of a hundred people are so broken by capitalism that they won’t help others for the sake of it. I think we are so alienated from eachother and so exhausted from labor that we are rarely in situations where helping others is an option. Further, the ways in which we define help so individualized that the impact of it is minimal. we aren’t in situations where our help is meaningful, we are too exhausted and isolated to make the extra effort, and most of us don’t even consider community action as an option.

    People want to help others, they just don’t know how
