Humanity is being Westernized with the worst possible perversion of moral principles. It is now impossible to love peace, humility, purity, goodness, truth and beauty while simultaneously posting, creating or publishing "successfully" on the internet. This is illustrated most powerfully by former media creator Pete Hegseth's renaming of the Department of Defense to the Department of War. It's all about branding, aggression, "masculinity" and violence.
If you don't swear at least occasionally ... and preferably often ... then your numbers are almost guaranteed to stay in the tank. If you aren't salting your narrative with personal attacks put in the form of hot takes then you're being wasteful with your time. If you don't make your pursuit of "authenticity" the raw public confession of your sins in a way that would be roundly condemned by any Catholic Priest worth his salt then the algo is going to dox you. And lastly, if you aren't more "manly" and proud than Trump then you're a woke womanish weakling retard.
Hopefully this obliteration of all social conventions soon meets it's match from an online force of which I'm currently unaware, or I feel deep foreboding when I think about the future.
Maybe some of my friends are right and the solution to forced invisibility is book writing. Certainly book length arguments and stories are essential to human flourishing. But shorter form articles can also contribute, and ought not influence the rise or fall of one's readership. In other words writing a book, in place of creating truthful blog, video or audio content shouldn't be the deciding factor in the size of a creator's followership.
Money should play no role whatsoever in the opportunity for an online creator to build a followership and become an "Influencer." This isn't entirely true because the placing and maintaining of content on the internet has a cost, and justice requires that this cost should be fairly distributed among the internet's users. It isn't possible to price this fairly at the moment because the internet isn't a free market.
Most of humanity has been taught by Google and the West to believe that it is free, and ought to remain so. This is putting unrealistic pressure on governments to keep it free. The solution is to obliterate Google's "free" economic model and replace it with a truly free market by breaking up all the tech monopolies.
When this happens everyone will quickly know the real relatively low costs for this amazing technology, and gladly start budgeting to create and maintain content on the network.
Everyone knows that there is no free lunch.
More and more people are waking up everyday to the fact that "free" on the internet means the surrender of their privacy and humanity. As the Tech industry's product every one of us are forced to surrender more and more of it every day in order to continue using this "free" internet. The price of our humanity is whatever Google is able to sell it for to advertisers. This is not an economic formula. This is slavery through manipulation and deception made possible by the collusion of private monopolies and government.
You are guaranteed invisibility if you speak, publish or record the following:
Any negativity about jews.
Defend your religion without bracketing your assertions with affirmation of all religions. On the internet it is evil to assert that Jesus Christ really is God and that the Roman Catholic Church is the only one He created. I'm pretty sure this is a dogmatic assertion/belief for the Roman Catholic Church.
Take any religion seriously. Religion is no more or less important than your run of the mill superstition.
Fail to employ and honor in your narrative most of the contrived and senseless vocabulary and categories of the LGBTxyz sexual orientation cabal.
Adopt the vacuous categories, strategies and narratives of either the Republicans or the Democrats. To avoid invisibility on the internet today you must be a loyal flag waver in one of those camps. Dissidents are silenced.
Furthermore, you are guaranteed invisibility if you don't:
Pick a platform or two and take the time to teach yourself all of their quirks and settings.
Carefully discern and master the mostly unwritten cultural conventions and rules governing discourse and content on said platforms.
Master the processes to force yourself on others in an annoying way through tagging or whatever technical mechanics are baked into the platform that make it possible for you to notify others.
Give some money -- perhaps more than I realize because I've never made my content into advertising -- to the platform to "boost" your presence and work.
I'm sure there's more. These realities have created a "conversation" online that is highly politicized, completely devoid of meaningful religious and moral discourse, economically twisted, mechanically complex and destructive of our humanity.
So ... what to do? I asked in the headline, "Why Publish on the Internet?" It's a timely and relevant question for me. I've done it since the internet first appeared and my principled use of it hasn't done much more than earn me a visit from the FBI and make me so toxic I can't survive socially in any workplace -- even in one where I work alone all day delivering packages.
Everyone get's searched on the internet by someone in their workplace. I've found the amount of time to social annihilation has gone from never to days in the past decade in the blue collar world. Just a decade ago it was possible to speak freely -- especially about religion and politics -- online and still hold a job. My experience with white collar career obliteration in Maine is having been nuked in 2004.
A lifetime of totally wasted political work.
That's how I feel at the moment about having lived my Christian principles on the technology that sold itself as the first global public square.
I'll probably just keep writing anyway because I can't seem to stop.
The End
