Pleased to hear Nietzsche mentioned. Choosing a favorite book is like picking a favorite Grateful Dead song. There are so many. For me his The Antichrist is certainly near or at the top of the list. It is as close to a Bible as I have. It never fails to awe me every time I crack it open. Impressed also to hear Max taught at University of Michigan.

Max thanks for ALL you do for justice!

[@begging4music]

Brother Max. Thank You.

This is so good - thank you Maximillian, Prof Kelley, and TRNN :)

Be careful that you don't amplify corporate messages just because they sound so good. Remember Newspeak

[@alaskangirl7475]

Lots of shadow banning I noted 6 comments that I was able to view 12 not. Personally I think this Utube is a corporate rag.

So glad I found uall channel. Ty for the work y’all do for the Ppl. Carl Cavalier was a police officer for Louisiana he was 🔥 bcuz he refused to allow crooked police to get away with all the bs that they’re doing. Please look into, y’all can start with the Roland Martin Unfiltered that’s were I seen the interview. Thx

I was 100% on your side and exhilarated about the points you made until you brought up the very well-funded corporate colonizers of the body and towed the corporate line, portraying them and their homophobic movement as the opposite of what they are 24:20

[@rosiethebear300]

So nice! So the poor get together to establish a farm/garden because the rich won't let them have a piece of the pie and now they want that too!

[@alaskangirl7475]

Only 6 out of 18 comments shown lots of shadow banning going on.

[@commenter7893]

Maybe not. The rate of views to comments generally in KZbin is low, I did some stats. I don’t remember exactly but it’s like 75 views per comment, but I remember incorrectly.

[@alaskangirl7475]

I’ll check that out lots of research in various areas but I’ve yet to research stats. Time and energy required for so much going on regarding big tech I have researched algorithms though regarding tech.

Capitalism is not the problem. Corporate fascisism is.

[@krellend20]

Those are the same thing.

People naturally tend to do what is in their own self-interest. The serfs didn't mind tending the fields in Russia as long as they were also allowed to grow their own gardens which they sold in the market. Then they took that away and people were asking themselves, "Why am I working if I get no benefit from it?" The famine which followed killed what some say was 100 million people. Communism failed. So capitalism is a person cashing in on his work by making a profit from his labor. He's free to work wherever he or she wants to. "Requiem for an American Dream" by Noam Chomsky is on KZbin. Fantastic thinker.

John - "People naturally tend to do what is in their own self-interest." Yes. Just ask Joe Manchin.
