Free clown 3 ▲ unstory 1 hour ago · Culture · hide · 0 comments This whole circus at unstory.eu has been running for over three months. I had a website before. Maybe five people read it. This shit is read by maybe 500. It changes nothing. There is nothing to sell here. No service, no product, no subscription, no ideology, no data, no audience to convert into money. So what exactly am I doing? Playing a clown for free. There are practically two ways to exist online. You extract something from other people, or other people extract something from you. Money. Data. Attention. Influence. Status. Customers. Votes. Subscribers. Whatever. If you are extracting something, your output eventually becomes performance. You don't necessarily say what you think, what you experienced, or what happened. You say what performs. You write the shit that gets clicks, that gets shared, that keeps your audience. You write the shit that doesn't piss off the people who pay you. In exchange, you get something back. Money is the cleanest version of the transaction. At least… No comments yet.
