I have a better idea -- break up existing large media and tech companies and stop trying to compete on a global scale against systems that are built around centralization.
if we stayed (with tech) in a suspended state of 30 years ago forever and intentionally kept things old-school small private capitalist, and hobbled the major TV networks and hollywood intentionally, we could split ownership a zillion ways.
this would basically put independent media on a complete even keel economically. the only hard part would be getting people to invest more heavily either in their own tech education (soas to write their own websites again) or in terms or money (pay someone else to do it) as well as driving traffic.
another idea is to disallow advertisers to know what they are advertising on, by law, outside of maybe a few limited restrictions (perhaps by content rating -- id say they can know if its X rated or PG but not any more than that).
this would make it such that a company couldnt pull advertising money from political opponents or even just competing products (see a coke ad over a pepsi video)
you could argue these things limit free speech -- in my view they increase it. way things currently work, if you bump up against a bigger entity than yourself your speech is the one censored, way Id have it censorship would literally be impossible since you'd be buying mystery packages and only basing your continued advertising packages on the results.
if advertisers get to know the content they advertise on, that itself is a big problem that has limited what the news can report on for years, as well as the viability of smaller independent journalists. what If I want to report a story that goes against one of the advertiser's major investments? in such a case, the advertiser should at least be unable to cancel any deals over it and have no control.
I am jewish actually. I guess not in terms of religion now, but hereditarily Im like 95% hahahahahahahha. Im the last person who could ever be a nazi unless i intended to kill myself or was a traitor like soros.
I have no group affiliations though, so my thoughts are entirely independent. I can see how I can come off against stereotypes because of that.
its a very precarious situation since everyone hates me and I hate them equally lol. the nazis cant stand me, and everyone else thinks im one of them. Truly Im neither and prefer the chaos of independence.
its true. because the rest of the world would not do that and have more assets because of it.
but truth be told they already own the media in another way anyway (advertising and stocks give them plenty control as it is)
my thinking is that by keeping everything in a billion disconnected puzzle pieces and not finishing the puzzle prevents any one of those agencies from having too much control or ever reaching too many people on their own.
