Booktube is the foil of /lit/. The two cannot exist without the other. Men v women. Literature v populism. This has been a battle going on for centuries.

I miss old Youtube. The interface, the star system, AMVs, the stolen flash animations from Newgrounds, the Youtube Poops, organic viral videos. Now it's like television for Zoomers. Fuck these e-celebs going "NOOOOOOOOO Youtube changed its algorithm, now I'm not getting as much ad revenue despite the fact that I have more money than people with legitimate jobs" and the unashamed airing of unironic commercials and "a word from our sponsors". These "people" are the antithesis of old YT, this was a platform meant to post funny shit, not to see ads and make money. It's telling that YT dropped it's slogan "Broadcast yourself". YT isn't a platform for the average joe to share funny, creative videos, it's a platform for entrepreneurs to make money while pumping out safe, sterile crap.

It has stifled a lot of creators though. Basically, when (((they))) said that they wanted the internet to "work for everyone" they made it so, by making sure Hollywood was gonna get top billing. The status quo has gone back to something like old TV, everything's stagnant, and only those who made it beforehand can stay afloat.

Not to mention said algorithms are hopelessly broken and incompetent. Robots do a terrible job at finding "offensive" videos, even demonetizing pro-LGBTQBBQ and history vids in the process. Pure, simple incompetence.

I want to extensively train in every type of hand to hand combat that is out there in the world right now, and I'm a quick learner, believe me, so it'll only take about three months before I become a fully nuclear-autistic, unstoppable, lethal force and I'll be more than capable of tracking Kat down and kicking her skull from the rest of her body.

New YouTube is just the natural evolution of YouTube because from it's inception YouTube was an extension of television and this is what television naturally evolves into.

Marshall McLuhan was right about everything way back in the 60's. Arguably his analysis of T.V. is way more relevant now then it was back then.

I find it a shame men have essentially ceded women literature and have mostly retreated into non-fiction. Maybe it was always like that, but the modern publishing industry just seems to be an extension of Oprah inspired book clubs.
