If the only way to a revolution is making lives more miserable, is the revolution even worthy? Something, something, accelerationism...

And that makes it right?

Anyway the difference now is that peoples opinions are amplified and spread quickly. Combine that with sponsorships and uninformed takes and you are in trouble. It Aldo doesn't help that people these days are lazy and dopamine junkies.

Wheel is excellent entertainment, and far more human than most of these pretenders.

I make the distinction among “streamer” who is doing a play by play similar to sportscasting, “presenter” is showing facts or teach a lesson like online learning, “op ed” to explain an opinion or parody, and “influencer” as someone trying to be center of attention but usually brings no value and has no reason to be famous except from being famous.

Maybe it’s just my own biases, but

• I can listen when my kids watch e-sports, recognize it as sportscasting
• I appreciate how “Everyday Astronaut” explains things
• I’ll go with Jon Stewart for presenting news topics with a sense of the absurd because I don’t have the patience to find a streamer equivalent
• somehow people like the Jenners, Lindsay Lohan, Kardashians, are famous for being famous, and supposedly “influence” people? Some of these really seem like the worst of humanity and ought to just be ignored.
