This is part of the show. Mix some facts in with plausible conjecture, then create mock censorship to increase interest. I agree with most of the points being made, yet I'm a bit wary of the messenger.

I agree with your summary with regards to hive and steemit. As for the bike, FIX it. If the wheels and frame are straight and free of any major damage, almost every part can be serviced or replaced, sometimes

Its not as difficult as it looks. Riding a bike is easier than walking. Start with short rides and build up from there.

Welcome to the new normal. This NEVER happens in China. (other than a photo) I miss the civility of the west, and when I'm there I miss the chaos of the east.

If the major content creators were willing to go on strike, perhaps this would get the attention of management, until then there are other platforms. LBRY and Flote for example.

I also expect the worst is yet to come. Many are not prepared, and for those who are, is this really a world you want to live in? (checkpoints, tracking of all behaviour, and forced medication) The penalty

Lovely, everything I suspected about the future for the past 20 years gets confirmed in a 42 minute video. Opt out, if you can.

Great! I'm glad to know someone still has hope. My plans for 2020 have been completely cannonballed, as with millions of others. I don't blame anyone for not wanting to be part of the dystopian future

David and Brian are great actors. (London Real, seriously, I can't help but laugh) This is all "part of the show". Hunger Games, the real life version.

No doubt, there are hidden treasures buried beneath the ice. This also gives new meaning to the term "climate change".

Not excited. This platform, like many others is becoming an algocracy. Make of that what you will, it would seem that every effort is being made to dehumanize the masses under the cover of a plandemic.

Welcome to the "plandemic". Its still early days, China is desperate to keep up appearances that everything is normal, when it clearly isn't. All foreigners have been denied entry, the kids are

Welcome to the algocracy. Hive has the same issues, as most large platforms rely on bots to police their content. There is no recourse, other than abandonment.

Clif High is also aware of this video.

I've been blacklisted, its another reason I won't be posting here much any more.

Hive seems to be a sinking ship, many of the problematic issues on steemit were carried over to hive. I'll be migrating to Flote and LBRY.

Hive isn't immune to censorship either. I'll be migrating to Flote and LBRY.

Follow the leader. This is basic tribalism at play, the same basic rules can apply to (fill in the blank_____)politics, sports, consumer products, academics, economic status, nationalism, globalism, language,

There is a black mirror episode that shows exactly what you describe. (spoiler alert, it doesn't end well)

As an urban dweller, my options are limited, other than to flee, or fight. I would say that famine isn't in the cards for the immediate future, massive social unrest will happen first.
