Social Media Backlash!!!

[@Jaxon1776]

The woods. Full leaf off. Wisdom from a man you've grown to admire.

[@oldcop18]

Social media has given a platform for “experts” to say things on line they’d never say to someone’s face. Everyone becomes an expert, or a tough guy, on the internet.

Once a good teacher, always a good teacher. Thanks.

[@lewisholmes5745]

Sometimes the "backlash" that some people give out is just down right HILARIOUS and to be ignored!! Thank you Mr. Hickok for just being you! Love all your channels because you always speak the truth as you see it!! And you are usually right!!!

[@van7887]

Sir, you hit the nail on the head!!!!! I feel exactly the same!!!! We cannot, will not accept someone’s opinion. We feel that everything is a personal attack, and social media is the culprit!!!

[@clyde4296]

Keep on keeping on Mr. Hickok !!!

[@AnthonyArthur-d2f]

Well said!👍🏻🇺🇸

This was back when the internet was relatively young, although I was already a dinosaur. At a social event after work, I and a friend got involved with a fairly one sided argument with a, what would now be known as a snowflake. The snowflake was going on and on about how dangerous guns are and blab, blab, blab. I told him that I have an opinion about the subject that was colored by the fact that I grew up in a country with a totalitarian government and where only the government and the criminals had guns and everybody else was classified as a victim. My friend was just bored with the subject and just wanted to leave. I finally told snowflake that if he didn't like me and my opinion, then he can unfriend me on facebook. Snowflake just yelled in my face that he will unfriend me on facebook. As we were leaving, my friend asked me with a puzzled look, "Since when did you get on facebook?" I told him that I wasn't on facebook. He just laughed and said that the poor schmuck will go crazy trying to find me on a social platform that I wasn't on. Sometimes, it pays to not play these social media games.

[@jeffsmith2022]

'Snowflake' was right about guns being dangerous, get real...I own one BTW...

[@davekreation2141]

I think you are positively encouraging independent thought. Please keep going.

[@PalKrammer]

When various TV "news" programs started showing Twitter or other social messages from random people, they totally lost any claim to being professional journalists.

[@jakebrouillette5072]

Be real. Be you. If it's conflicted, combat it. Stand your ground. Speak your mind. Telling truth and lies will both grant you "backlash". Can you sleep at night? Do you have peace of mind? Lies will be vetted. Truth will be seen. Life is good

[@Chandler-n6l]

Well said, Sir!! The "Backlash Minority" is disproportionately amplified.

[@edwardmcgee5465]

Yep, your right. Sometimes it's better to just grin to yourself and keep going on.

[@WheelgunsOnWheels]

Yup. Differing opinions are the foundation of growth as long as one is open to listening to the other perspective and willing to grow when presented new facts. That too defines science. Objective analysis with all senses fosters a well rounded education. We seek diversity in our diets, our firearms, our activities, our friends etc. Life would be quite boring without it.

[@BasedChad]

The gossip girls need to talk about something!

[@midnight4540]

Haha, well, action equals reaction. Thanks and take care.

[@goodcitizen64]

Thanks 👍

[@colombiancoffeebeen5528]

When I get backlash, I unspool, untangle, reel the line back in and go back to fishing 🎣

[@garycarsey667]

I get my information from channels like yours and a few podcasts. Traditional media is slowly dying.

[@RichDoh64]

If you get alot of people giving you a hard time about what you said. It's because you told them the truth. People hate the truth.

[@jbkibs]

"Being offended is bulls***." And well said about the actors, because that's all it is. LOL. It is a joke. You're great, man. Keep it up.

[@dhix2388]

A dumb down of (information) with out any due diligence. here we are.

[@czechmate6916]

What people say to others on social media they wouldn’t dare say to their face. That’s why they are called keyboard warriors.

[@norencenelson8111]

Simply because someone speaks with authority doesn't make them an authority. I've never had cable or satellite. Since the inception of those two media forms, it has become apparent to me that they aren't worth the price for any channel on them. In the 70s, I can remember when my friends were saying it was commercial free and only 15.00 a month. My response then was, "just wait". Now I have friends paying 200.00 a month and they never seem to understand why they're always mad about life. They fail to see that someone is pissing on their leg and telling them, "it's raining."

[@thomasmino]

Right on! I do like this channel.

[@RockyMartinezUSMC82AB]

Gods in control and thats all that matters

Without the apostrophe you professed polytheism.

Idk whats gonna happen but thankyou for years of advice and gun support. U have been a blessing to us all. Thanks grandpa

People tell me I have captivating inflection, but I’m too humble to believe them ✌️

[@travishall67]

Anchor-ettes? Oh boy you'll get backlash from that. 🤣😉

[@Vv20vV]

😂

[@tomfraustein7693]

Back in the day, news channels reported the news, now they make the news.

[@waltervonahn9989]

Truth, the ability to question what you hear on social media and check it out is what’s necessary even if you hear it from your “team”.

[@StephenCooteNZ]

The gossipers and click-baiters need to get their own real life. The mainstream media is trusted less nowadays and they are losing followers. We are seeing, I believe, a swing back to sensible. Thank goodness for the internet, free speech, and honest, down-to-earth folks like Hickok45 who say it like it is. Best wishes from New Zealand.

[@jimhontz7313]

You're so right. So many people think internet content is so important not realizing that much commentary is composed by bots and AI. And the commentary coming from people are only their opinions. So who cares.

[@gmount55]

It's all about driving clicks. Just ignore clickbait.

[@StabbinJoeScarborough]

Keep your knives sharp !

[@happydog4929]

Hey I like this channel, it's like a mini Sunday.

[@dB_944]

Last time I checked, I’m not accountable to Facebook, twitter, or KZbin. 👍😁

[@rgdodson]

I have decided that there really isn't much social, about social media.

[@thomascook5368]

Still absorbing Hickok45 I'll take whatever wisdom you got my friend, please keep it coming.

[@bfrlf9740]

Amen

[@WilliamMiller-tv7eo]

Feeling everyone gets them hurt because you said something they didn't want to hear.

[@thedevilinthecircuit1414]

Social media is *extremely* influential because critical thinking is dying. Used to be, critical thinking was crucial to survival. Later it was taught in schools; these days, not so much. Forming an opinion takes work, and many people today would rather have their opinions spoon fed to them. Social media does that very elegantly, even with much of it being social egineering.

[@philipharris1890]

Some people intentionally want “backlash.” “Bad publicity is better than no publicity at all” the worst thing that can happen to a media person is no one is talking about them!

[@rocksteady13]

Life is good

[@jimchambers7548]

You can't please everyone, so make yourself happy and the hell with them

I literally just cracked the same Perrier. I feel like a rich man. This stuff is pricey now and a real treat.

[@Hickok45Talks]

I buy it at Sam's by the case. Cheaper than picking up a bottle of any water at a gas station when it's bought in bulk.

[@Del-Canada]

I buy it by the 6 pack. But not often.

[@Oldgreycowboy]

I’m ot led around by the social media. I worked for a couple big phone companies. The big one really did build most of the web. That just gave the lazy spoiled next geners playing games in the basement because they don’t want to work. It gave them an invisble voice. 👎👎👎

[@Vv20vV]

Media backlash.. This new generation is so sensitive 🙄

Mike Tyson said it best.

[@ml.2770]

Former Heavyweight Champ Mike Tyson has said it best. "Social media made y'all way too comfortable with disrespecting people and not getting punched in the face for it."

[@TheReasonableSkeptic-ii4te]

I like Hickok's videos about the guns used in massacres.

[@Hickok45Talks]

That's interesting since we've not done any of those videos. :-)

[@the_MYSTERIOUS_Eddie_Dean]

In today's world, there's a lot of fake outrage. They think they have to put someone in their place. Makes them feel big. = ) Don't use bad language (like they do), to chew them back.

[@SSGTC]

I like your videos. So does my four year old daughter. I only get one vote

[@Huntsrelics]

we need longer talk videos

[@DavidHBurkart]

I don't know if this is backlash, but here goes; "How can you drink Perrier with Topo Chico on the market???" 🤔😂

[@Hickok45Talks]

Is that another brand of sparkling water?

[@johnsodx]

You’re wrong, and I’m right. I won’t explain why I’m right and you’re wrong, because this is social media, and if you disagree with me, you’re a Hater!

[@mse3700]

Is it illegal to use clickbait in hunting videos?

[@Hickok45Talks]

Good one.

I would narrow it down to there is a whole lot of stupid out there anymore. Attention spans are incapable of listening and learning.
