12: Analyzing Social Media's Obsession with "Critique" & Unwarranted Hate (Bullying)
Social media platforms such as TikTok and YouTube have democratized fame & notoriety. Anyone can upload any content they wish, at anytime they please. Although this can be an incredibly freeing and cathartic experience for both creators and viwers, allowing both anyone to express themselves and create an audience, while simultaneously giving power to the consumer to choose they type of content they want to see. It also gives anonymous users with bad intent the ability to anonymously bully, harass, dox, or even virtue signal their way into getting anyone they wish “cancelled” i.e. de-platformed from their social media, and no longer be able to post.
This episode takes a look at a few creators, mainly Sevyn Satiiva & Stephanie Soo and how public perception has both given them immense opportunity, but that also comes with the downfalls of unwarranted hate by viewers. Let’s adventure down into the “Dark Side of Content Creation”, that is commonly brushed off by critics as "what you get for putting yourself out there" or "that's Showbiz baby”. There is a stark difference between critique and unwarranted threats and hate. Let’s explore it!
