Like it or not
Like it or not!
For my spiritual enlightenment and mental health, I have learned to do the following when on social network video sites: not to comment with negative feedback or press the dislike button. This is a personal choice that prevents me form attaching any emotional connection with the content of the video and accepting the video in all its’ glory. But, while on a well-known video uploading social media platform such as You Tube, I noticed the dislike button had been disabled, leaving only a like button option available. You can still press the dislike, but it will not publicly count them. While I am of the mindset that only leaving positive comments or no comment at all is a healthier way to live, I do think it is a personal choice and should not be one I am coerced in to doing.
Why did they dislike disable the dislike button on social media?
The short answer is to manipulate your voice and control what you think.
Stunted by a lack of varied perspective, the entertainment industry seems unable to provide anything new except in the world of technology. Bolstered by the political ideology of Marxist rhetoric, most mainstream media outlets are always fighting against the general opinion and will of the mass of people they are selling to. This means that most videos uploaded on to social networking sites by mainstream media and entertainment networks have a large dislike to likes ratio; not appealing to promote. A good example of this is the videos pushed by the largest news networks promoting anti-white sentiment, where more than 90% of the videos are rated to have a far greater number of dislikes. They will pay the website to take away many of the dislikes and delete the comments, but this is now not enough because the message is clear; people are not so easily fooled or emotionally manipulated.
For a few years now, there has been a co-ordinated strategy used when responding to the inevitable criticism of the race-baiting, politically correct uploads and that is to deflect criticism, by insulting the critique and labelling them racist, haters, right-wing fascists, and conspiracy theorist. But this is no longer having enough of an effect as it once did. Where once enough people are labelled right-wing, conspiracy theorist, fascists and racist, the words lose their potency. With the objective of perverting the works of healthier generations these giant media organisations impose prevailing ideology on updated versions of previous films, books, and productions. This is so with many movies re-makes, books, such as 1984, now given a feminist perspective and social media sites.
By disabling the dislike button and leaving only the like button, on the face of it, there is now only a positive review of the video uploaded. The negativity that would detract from the political message being put across is now eliminated, leaving only a sterile conforming review that complies with the original message and promotes the political ideology being promoted. But this is more reminiscent of a dictatorship, where only the one view is heard. But in such dictatorship, you can read between the lines and the truth is known, eventually.
You Tube is now the second most used platform in the world and its’ influence is ubiquitous amongst communities of all denominations, races, creeds, and socio-economic groups, so it matters for many people that the dislike button is now gone.
The official line is “To ensure You Tube promotes respectful interactions between viewers & creators, we introduce several features and policies to improves their experience,” they announced, “and earlier these years we experimented with the dislike button to see whether or not changes could help better protect creators from harassment, and therefore reduce dislike attacks-where people work to drive up the numbers of dislikes on a creator’s video.”
Ostensibly, You Tube say this is for new and small creators’ protection, but the analytics say a different story; most dislikes are for the large multi-national news networks, advertising agencies and multi-national retailers, who are finding the dislikes button used as a backlash to their increasingly woke, left-wing, ant-western agenda.
While You Tube claims that this prevents hate, racism, and discrimination, it is widely seen as a prevention of any opposing view by the powers that be against anyone who doesn’t like the message, while increasing the views and income of videos that pay the highest for advertising, regardless of popularity with viewers.
The ‘victims’ of dislike attacks are more likely to be the venting of disapproval, such as movie fans who disliked the movie or people with the wrong political persuasion who have rejected the political message pushed in the faces of the viewers by the large corporations.
In short, it’s better for your mental health not to waste your time disliking videos and the efforts of small creators, but when the dislike button is often the only recourse to opposition, it’s a clear form of manufactured consent, on par with Pravda in Communist Russia.
Now, it is the lack of likes that will be the public point of opposition and the count of a video’s true unpopularity. This proves that the truth will leak out and there will always be a form of opposition no matter how strong the powerful authority of the prevailing multi-corporate ideology.
My advice on the matter, keep clicking the dislike button whenever you want to and whenever you can, because you might not see how many dislikes a truly unpopular video gets, the faceless multi-national corporations will still see the dislikes in their analytics count and they will know the truth even when they don’t publish it.
