Hello @kafkanarchy84,

This is a fantastic post and one that has come to my notice at a perfect time. I don't often use terminology like cosmic, but it's definitely a synchronicity and I feel that we are definitely not alone in this.

I have just told someone sat next to me that I used to say that the main tool for control is division, but I have updated it to 'centralisation and division'. It's uncanny timing, as I wrote it down today, as a reminder note, to write a post with the same heading - 'Centralisation and Division - The tools of mass control'. I still might :).

Facebook, YouTube and Google share analytical information and sell 'you' to yourself. If you haven't got a product to sell, you are the product, but there is much dearker, more insidious workings afoot, as you have described in your well put together post. I have a very small issue with youtube videos being shared on here, with a single sentence comment, by someone who didn't create it, and without giving any credit to the creator, but I am a patient man, and will wait until the wheat and chaff stand separated by their indifferences.

The demonetised YouTube accounts that have been obviously attacked for their content and their content hidden from searches, would be not only wise, but not stupid, to move their accounts over here and to bring their subscribers with them.

I say here, but I mean D Tube and all of those channels should start making their videos fro D Tube and not YouTube. YT has done all it can to close itself down, but the masses that are indifferent or just aren't too bothered, will keep the stagnant pool as is, to tread water in, for time immemorial.

I used to have a mild issue with monetised YouTube accounts, but only because of the compromise between being an independent reporter and a supporter of commercial product placement and the advertising of companies that you might not ethically agree with.

Anyway, I have waffled, as I do, but had to comment. I am here for good and only recently (before joining Steemit) used Facebook, after 40+ weeks of non-use, to share a water scandal, involving Nestle, as Facebook seems to be where most people 'live', but I feel that this was an error, although we did get 11,000 signatures in six days.

but I digress and after the horse has bolted :). Thank you for sharing this and I hope your move is realised as the genius idea that I feel it is and that Steemit helps your organisation to grow in more ways than you first thought possible.

All the best.
