After reading, I agree with im3w1l. The author did not do this subject justice. Its too short, makes some sweeping generalizations about the evolution of human culture, and never really dives deep into answer the “How” that it calls out in its title. Great title, mediocre article.

I also think the suggestion that content creators, as in all of them (the author specifically calls out Charlie Damelio), don’t view their fans as anything more than a number is interesting. He calls out a content creator he perhaps views as part of the problem but fails to acknowledge the same extends to literally everyone you’ve ever heard of online that you follow but don’t know in real life, including people im sure the author would defend as being “really good guys”.
