Karl’s drama/exposé videos have always had this kind of antagonistic energy to them. It usually doesn’t bother me since the subjects, like Billy Mitchell, have brought the absurdity on themselves. Carrying that same energy into serious claims of fraud feels like a poor decision even if it’s the style of video you’re used to making. I don’t think the money would have been donated without these videos so I’m glad they were made, but the presentation was not as effective as it could’ve been.
Looks like !opensignups@lemmy.ml exists. Not a lot there yet, but hopefully it can pick up some steam over time.
I don’t really like the logic of “chatbots like this will help cure loneliness.” It might help someone feel less lonely at first. But then it’ll be a crutch and, if anything, hurt people’s ability to socialize with other real people. Like it’s a quick dopamine hit that will slowly dig you deeper into the hole you feel you’re in.
