With sites like YouTube, Facebook and Twitter censoring different parties for politically incorrect speech and what not, I think that there's a huge opportunity for a new social media platform to emerge to seize the opportunity.
What most people don't know is that trolling and dark humor was a major driver for social media, which attracted younger audiences. With YouTube, Facebook and Twitter's new "safe-space" policies, they're going to be less fun for the youth... which is going to lead to the decline of these platforms.
YouTube just announced that any videos that contain “Controversial or sensitive subjects and events, including subjects related to war, political conflicts, natural disasters and tragedies, even if graphic imagery is not shown.” is going to be demonetized.
“Inappropriate language, including harassment, profanity and vulgar language,” is also being demonetized.
With these incentives being removed, nobody's going to make hilarious videos anymore because they're walking on eggshells, which = less entertaining content = less viewers on the platform.
Remember, whenever there's 4 street corners and one has a baseball game, one has a basketball game, one has a hockey game and one has a fight... EVERYONE rushes over to the fight
I think these corporations forget that the youth were the ones that built these platforms... yet they're censoring them for older audiences. It doesn't make sense to me.
What do you guys think? Do you think there's more opportunity for another platform to emerge and take advantage of this huge market gap?
