Don’t Depend on Billionaire-controlled Media. ~ Waylon Lewis {Walk the Talk Show Podcast, Video}

Threads, IG, X/Twitter, Substack, Medium…they’re all heavily invested in and controlled by Big Tech money. Elephant is not.

Walk the Talk Show with Waylon Lewis presents:

This week on our longrunning, ongoing “Walk the Talk Show” podcast and video series, with awards and millions of views over the years…

Waylon shares a message that isn’t exciting, or riveting, or hateful…but is hopefully mature, and reasonable, and helpful:

“Social media is always incentivizing us to say something catchy, or say something intense, or say something self-righteous to get attention. It’s training us to be annoying, training us to be willing to bully or to marginalize others.

And often when mature, reasonable, caring things are shared, that’s not exciting, right? It’s not nasty, it’s not positivity in a fake, weak way…so it gets ignored.” ~ Waylon H. Lewis 

 ”I am scared that a lot of the social media [platforms] are one decision—by an already corrupt, greedy billionaire—away from shutting down our means of communication. So I think we gotta invest in community. We gotta invest in resistance. We have to invest in connecting in ways that aren’t just on social.” ~ Waylon H. Lewis
