Well, I hear the wind talk and appreciate the discussion. I think in broaching a topic like climate change and especially how it relates to established social systems and norms, it takes all kinds. There is definitely an incentive you describe that is perverse when it's just for money, but when it comes to getting a message out there, I think most well-meaning people just realize they have to play the game. Everything in in the digital age is always is jockying for leverage in the attention economy, and if what your putting out is something you really care about, you want it to have an impact. I definitely agree the approach can be counterproductive, but it's up the creator in the end. And, other less genuine, reactionary, and shallow exchanges in this post's comment section aside, at least in this particular case it led to something good.

Hop on over to c/breadtube and contribute more if you find these kinds of topics interesting. I'm hoping that while Lemmy is small, we can get something decent cultivated. Much appreciated :)

@Holyginz@lemmy.world

Blaming men or women is beyond dumb. It’s greedy corporations and corrupt politicians. Videos like this only distract people

The video doesn't blame men or women. It analyzes and criticizes the power structure that excacerbates serious issues and hinders us from making positive change happen.

@Aurenkin@sh.itjust.works

I think the important thing is that we are divided along arbitrary lines, pitted needlessly against each other and thereby paralysed and unable to push for the necessary policy changes.

The video title is meant to be inflammatory to get people to watch it. Criticizing patriarchy is not attacking men or dividing groups. In fact, it does the exact opposite, resisting the power dynamics that stratify and divide groups and prevent us from working together to achieve change.

It's ironic. I expected the post of the video was going to be downvoted to hell for this very reason. If people would at least listen and consider the idea, they might be able to start making change happen in an ideological cultural underpinning that runs so deep.

This was the reason for this post. It has happened to me quite a few times already. When I take a bunch of time to make a well-thought-out reply and link a bunch of references in a discussion, I don't want all that effort to effectively disappear when the original commentor just decides they are embarrassed or don't want to continue and just nukes the thread.

Could you kindly explain how it represents hate?

[-] redpen@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

I would be happier if figures like him weren't influential as well.

[-] redpen@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Good effort, bot.

[-] redpen@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

It's interesting that the one posted later has more engagement.
