"#unmonetizablecontent, the Kryptonite of the platforms!

#Broderick's conclusion is that "as #platforms police speech less and less, edgelords lose their sheen," but that this material, at or beyond the edge of #copyright, unwelcome on platforms, is the future face of cool.

And here's where Broderick really got me: "the most dangerous thing for platforms is not racist garbage. It’s "unmonetizable content"."

"…a theory on #thenewcool: You have to essentially pre-#deplatform yourself.

#Culture right now is determined not by #human teams of editors & producers picking & choosing what youth culture gets the spotlight, but, instead, by the #unthinkingalgorithms that power YouTube & TikTok. Which means the only things that have the level of #scarcity & #danger required to be seen as #cool by young people will, slowly, but surely, be whatever is unacceptable on those platforms."
