Give it up for @kafkanarchy84!

He left us, but he is doing just fine!

I've had interactions with him.
And it does appear that he dropped 'anarchist' from his self labeling.

He got in a tussle with this guy.
It escalated quickly.
Flamed out.
Everybody has probably moved on.

For those of us watching from the outside, it serves as warning about being careful who you get involved with.

I think Kafka should have gotten more support from us, he was quite brave/assertive in outing the poor behavior of a well known personality.

He did us a favor, there.

I don't think got proper respect for that, so I hope you take the time to discover this good guy, for yourself.

He sure 'nough can get our name in the papers.

Youtube 'Christmas Purge' Has Content Creators Pointing to These Alternate Platforms

full story

Recent widespread video removals have crypto Youtubers searching for greener and more dependable pastures for content production.
While reports have since emerged of Youtube claiming the incident was an accident, and that videos are now being restored, the “Christmas Crypto purge” of 2019 has nonetheless burnt an indelible memory into the minds of dedicated Youtubers.
Many are now looking to back up their content or even migrate elsewhere, and suggesting more decentralized and censorship-resistant platforms for video sharing.

Dtube

Steemit-associated Dtube (warning: some Dtube thumbnail images may be NSFW) claims to be “the first crypto-decentralized video platform, built on top of the STEEM Blockchain and the IPFS peer-to-peer network.”
The Interplanetary File System (IPFS) and Steem blockchain are leveraged so that “D.Tube is not able to censor videos, nor enforce guidelines.”
Rewards and monetization are made possible via Steem, Dtube Coin, and others.
While still growing and viewed as very promising by many, periodic issues with the IPFS protocol struggling to accommodate user requests has been noted.

For those of you that were here during that time, please take the time to immortalize your impressions of what happened, or didn't happen, or any rumors in the comments.

Take the seven minutes for this video from Venezuela.

Was wondering where that guy went.

I don't blame him, he wasn't getting much love here.

Yeah, all the Steemians I've seen who have some name to themselves outside the bubble seem to be ignored by the people here for the most part.

It's almost like a "pearl before swines" type of thing.

Kafkanarchy was one of the first accounts I followed. His daily walkabout videos were always entertaining. The run-in with Kokesh got very nasty but he's always come across as a bit of a mealy-mouthed creep anyway. It was a pity Kafka left while the AK guy still posts periodically.

Yep, fewer voices is not in our best interests.
The passionate are the more fun, for me.

The run-in with Kokesh got very nasty...

Now that was good TV! 😎

Remember the debates AK had with Larken and Kaf? AK was the reason I joined Steemit, was all for getting rid of Gov and was trying to support the idea.
IMHO, AK won both debates and then later, all that other stuff came out.
Never had a conversation with Kaf that I didn't feel insulted.

Yeah, ak was doing good until his class privilege got tangled up with his patriarchy and he outed himself as a jerk.

Kaf could use some bedside manner classes, for sure.

I just hope he plugs steem some more.

I missed those debates, thanks for the link.

Larken has philosophical issues, too, imo.
At least he did last i interacted with him.
He makes good videos though.

I'd hope all three of them have travelled a little farther forward on the freedom path.
So many of us stateside anarchists have to make it up as we go.
Dropping chains as we break them.
Very few of us find these ideas in our childhood homes.
