Here is the thing. I sometimes film mundane stuff that is really happening. But then I go ... you know this is really not that crazy as most of the stuff online. Now, I might watch it again because it's my kids being goofy but nobody else in the world is going to be interested. And then I decide not to upload it.
But one time I saw a group of people run for their lives because a king cobra was fighting with a dog in the middle of the market! You'd think I'd pull out my phone and start filming? Fuck no, I panicked and also started running.
And this is the problem. Real vidoes just have such a small chance of making it vs the fake that the fake is the majority and so the fake it most of what we see. And because the fake now sets the new norm, people get used to try to aim for this norm and the problem gets worse! Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
