  • I have hundreds of short form videos which are designed to uplift, encourage, and speak positively about mental health issues. I’ve had lots of people tell me that my videos in some small way encourage them to take the next step in their mental health.

    In other words, it’s not the form of the video that matters, it’s the content.

    As for the cost of the server, I think the videos will expire after a certain amount of time. Something like Snapchat.

    The great thing about the Fediverse is that it offers options. Is this going to be exactly like TikTok? Of course not. Will it serve a purpose for some? Time will tell.

    I only said “the left” instead of “the dems” to be more inclusive. If that was wrong, I apologize. My intent was not to “blame the left for liberal apathy” but to suggest we need to do more together.

    And yes, I agree that liberals should embrace leftists more, they are the ones who are trying to stand up for the rights of others more then any group in my opinion.

    So let me ask, what would you say is the best most actionable thing we can each do when it comes to safeguarding democracy this election? I mean that sincerely.


  • I honestly don’t think “education” is the key. It’s been well established that people don’t make decisions according to “the facts” as much as we do our emotions. You can’t “convince” someone that they are wrong unless you give them an emotional carrot to lead them.

    Give them the facts, but give them an emotional grounding to those facts. “This is your chance to make a fascists day shit.” might work better then “You need to vote because of X,Y,Z.”
