Shame is an ineffective social control mechanism in modern America because it requires shared cultural values, community bonds, and collective responsibility to function, all of which have been eroded by social media, polarization, and the breakdown of community; additionally, shame has historically been weaponized as a tool of oppression against marginalized communities, particularly Black women, making its return potentially harmful rather than beneficial.

Shame is OFFICIALLY Dead - IDK If That's Totally the Worst Thing Though...Hinzugefügt:
At least once a week, there's a call on social media to bring back Shane.
However, Shame, like Christina, is gone and she's not coming back. Let's talk about it.
[music] Aloha, beautiful humans. Welcome to my channel if you are new here. Welcome back if we've been locked in. And if we've been locked in, you will notice we've got a new setup going. I haven't been really happy with my audio quality lately. So, I got this new mic and hopefully it serves it gives me what I need cuz when I'm recording the videos, the audio quality sounds great. However, in post-prouction, it sounds just a little tiny. And I feel like it's one of those things that I am probably picking up on. I'm not sure if y'all are picking up on it, but the way I figure is if I'm picking up on it, somebody is very likely picking up on it. And I'm very like sensitive to audio feedback, anything going on in the background as far as noise goes. Like I will scroll off of a video no matter how interested I am in the subject matter at hand. If I hear that smoke detector battery going off in the background, scroll past, block, keep it moving. If I hear any kind of gum chewing, masticating, aggressive swallowing, and um that noise [laughter] once you do that, oh it it disturbs my spirit. So anyways, all of this to say that I'm very sensitive about noise and so I got this new mic. Hopefully it works. We're playing around with it. So, let me know if you've been locked in, especially let me know if you notice a difference in the audio quality and we'll go from there. Okay. Boom. So, like I said in the intro, today I want to talk about the concept of shame and how as much as people want us to bring back shame, it's simply not going to happen in 2026. And there are a lot of reasons as to why. And I'll save my thoughts at the end of the video about whether we actually should bring back shame. And if we do bring it back, what it should look like and how it will be affected. So the concept of shame is very interesting because shame only works in a society or it works best in a society or a culture with shared values with shared traditions with shared cultures with shared customs with shared norms. And while that may be the case for homogeneous societies and we see how impactful shame actually is and is still very much a thing, a tool used as a form of social control in a lot of other countries where they have strong cultures, strong traditions, especially a sense of homogyny. Shame is still a very effective tool in those societies, countries, and cultures where there is a unified or at the very least shared culture, shared tradition, shared norms, shared history, shared background.
They're generally very homogeneous in nature. Shame is still used as a tool of social control in those societies.
However, it's not effective in America and there are several reasons as to why.
One, social media. You know, I'm going to talk about the social media aspects of everything because social media is genuinely as I think we are getting to a point where we see more negatives than overall positives as a society. However, like I always say, social media is a tool and you can either use it to build or you can use it to destroy. Yes, you still have people who are using social media to build bridges and form connections and to do a great amount of good in their communities or however good as best they can to educate, to inform, to entertain, to make people laugh. You know, people are using social media in those ways. And I do think it is a powerful tool in those ways of creativity, how people are using it to build. But unfortunately, we are now entering a time where it is more often than not by creators and by users. It is being used as a tool of destruction. And I'm really curious as to where we go from here. Like we have gotten to a crossroads with social media where we know that it is actively doing more harm in most cases than good. And I think it's clear that these major social media sites and companies, they're not going to do anything about that. They have no incentive to actually clean up social media. it is beneficial for them for social media to be a bastion of hate, rage bait, a place where it can manipulate your emotions and profit off of your emotions. So, so, so a lot of these companies and organizations, you know, Meta, even though they were sued, Google, Tik Tok, they are really they really have no incentive to clean up the social media platforms to clean up the negativity that is happening on them.
It's very interesting that while we are hearing these calls to bring back shame on social media, social media is the biggest reason why we are not going to see shame come back as a society for several reasons. But before we get into the social media of it all, I want to go back to why shame will not be effective and it's not something we will see in the United States. Or at least it will not be as powerful of a tool to correct and control behavior, at least human behavior in the greater overall society that we are existing in. In the United States, it's not going to work because we have become so polarized and fractured as a society. There is no real sense of right versus wrong anymore. We have basically created a society where it is every single person for themselves and we are no longer a lot of people no longer have any sense of responsibility to one another. If you are on social media, you have probably heard the phrase time and time and time again, I don't owe you anything. We don't owe each other anything. And while I could not disagree more with that statement, I absolutely believe at baseline we owe each other kindness. We owe each other respect. We owe each other consideration. We owe each other an acknowledgement and a recognization of our shared humanity. I 110% believe that we actually do owe those things to one another. And that lack of respect, that lack of recognization of one's humanity is part and parcel of the reason why we are in this place now as a society where we are seeing a breakdown in social norms, a breakdown in social customs, and a breakdown in responsibility to one another. Shame works not only in societies where they are relatively homogeneous and they have shared cultures and possibly religions and backgrounds. It also works in an environment where there is a shared sense of responsibility to one another and recognition of the fact that we do not exist in a vacuum. As we are interacting with one another, we all sign a social contract to be in society to enjoy and reap the rewards and benefits of being in society. But that mentality no longer exists really in the United States. We are seeing the breakdown of community where people are very quick to cut one another off.
People are very quick to view people as disposable. People go no contact with family members and friends before they even try a resolution. A lot of people unfortunately view the people in their communities and their own family members and their own friends as disposable. I think a lot of people are uncomfortable having difficult conversations. And on top of that, we are existing in a society that while we are more therapized than ever before, you would think that the use of therapy and people seeking out therapy would make it so that we would have better relationships with other people. But unfortunately, what people are doing now is weaponizing therapy speak. So, they'll go to therapy and they'll hear these terms. They'll learn this these terms. Boundaries, for example, boundaries is a big one.
They'll learn all of these terms and then they will use it improperly and then turn around and use these terms like boundaries. They have a very limited understanding of what these words actually mean and they do not practice boundaries in a way that is restorative to maintain relationships.
It's the same with accountability. We hear the word accountability, but when people practice accountability, at least on the internet, and I've done a video about that if you're interested, you can go check it out. But when we hear these words accountability, when we hear these words boundaries, they in their actual definitions because words mean things, they are tools to restore and maintain fractured relationships. A lot of people do not use these terms with the understanding or with respect to that.
They don't care to maintain relationships with people. They want to cut people off, but then they'll hide behind therapy speak or they'll hide behind words like accountability and boundaries and phrases like, "I'm protecting my peace." to be actual demons to people to be antisocial. We have normalized a great deal of antisocial behavior under the guise of protecting our peace and putting ourselves first. And that same mentality is the reason why we are seeing so much breakdown in community. And that is the reason why shame is no longer an effective tool. In order for shame to actually exist and to be a tool, we need community. We need one another. But we are lacking in community now more than ever. Also, in order for shame to exist, it has to be a response to behavior or trying to correct behavior that goes against the norm. We are living in a society where a lot of in the past we used to have different subcultures.
However, with the advent and the expansion of social media where people can find community of like-minded people, the subcultures that would be subversive and kind of remain behind the scenes, you know, behind the background, they have gone mainstream. So, there really aren't any lifestyles as a whole, as a society, that are extremely frowned upon or looked down on with shame. Shame is an intensely painful self-conscious emotion arising from the belief that you are flawed, inadequate, or unworthy. It typically involves a negative evaluation of your entire self rather than just a specific action often accompanied by a desire to hide or withdraw. For better or for worse, and I honestly think it is for better, we have become a more accepting society. Shame often, at least the way it is used in America, can often be a tool of the oppressor to keep the oppressed oppressed, to keep the oppressed downtrodden and feeling like they are less than. In America, we exist in and are socialized under a system of white supremacy where there is a racial hierarchy and then there we are also existing under the system of patriarchy where there is a gender hierarchy. And so if you are a black woman in this society, if you are essentially anyone who is not a white man, you are somewhere on the bottom rung of the pedestal as a society because we live in a society that has put people in boxes that has created a tiered structure of who is worthy of agilation, respect, acknowledgement, being looked at as good and whole. And when I think about shame, shame is often a tool that is used by the oppressor to keep the oppressed downtrodden and believing in the lie that they are less than and unworthy. An example of this is the doll test that was conducted in the 1940s by Gordon Parks where he showed black children of all ages, but as young as three years old, dolls that were white and dolls were black. And he said, "Point to the beautiful doll." And a lot of the children, the vast majority of these black kids would point to the white doll. And when he said point to the ugly doll, they would point to the black doll. When any type of negative emotion or adjective or signifier, any type of negative adjective or descriptor, he would assign to the dolls and tell the kids to point at them. They almost always exclusively all of the children pointed at the black dolls. And so when you exist in a society of hierarchies, especially racial hierarchies and gender hierarchies, it can make people believe that they are less than and carry a sense of shame. even though that is not true and that is not theirs to own. And so when you think about the way shame has been used to subjugate black people, the colorism for example, the discrimination against black people when it comes to our hair, some black people have bought into this sense of shame over the features that we have been taught to believe are less than. And so I don't necessarily think that shame is a positive thing depending on how it is used. And when shame is used under the guise of keeping people oppressed, wanting people to feel bad for how they exist and move through the world, I don't think that that is a good thing.
It it's not even just a racial thing.
It's not even just a gender thing. It's also a sexuality thing. We are now existing in a time where yes, there are some people who of the LGBTQIA plus community. P.S. It is June. Happy Pride.
June is such a fun month for me. Like, we got Pride. It's my birthday.
Summertime is finally here in DC. It's before the humidity hits. So, I personally love the month of June. I Oh, I'm so excited. And pride is always a good time. But yeah, when you think about the LGBTQIA plus community, shame was often a tool to keep them, a lot of people in the closet, a lot of people oppressed, a lot of people not living in their truth. And I understand that people aren't saying bring back shame in that capacity. Like, it's a kind of a throwaway shame for we need to know less about each other. And why are people sharing crazy on social media? I totally get that. That is the context and the capacity in which they are saying yes, we should bring back shame.
I do think it is important to acknowledge the ways that shame has been harmful to people and why it is something we definitely don't want to bring back at least in America because it has been used shame has been used as a tool of oppression against several marginalized communities. And it is something that it is used in our media, in our music, in our education systems, in our housing systems. Shame and all of these other isms worked in tandem and still in many ways work in tandem to keep people silent, to keep people oppressed, to keep people feeling very lowly about themselves. And so, no, I really don't think shame is something we should be bringing back. I understand that people are using that phrase tongue and cheek. But when you think about the concept of shame and how it has been weaponized against marginalized communities if and when we bring back shame the way people want to, those are the communities that will be mostly targeted by shame as people want to practice it in 2026, which is becoming accountability culture, which I talk about a lot on this platform and I'm not going to dive too much into this video.
So definitely check those videos out.
But yeah, as it pertains to shame, because we are still living in a society that is still very hierarchical in nature, that is still very racist in nature, that is still very antilack in nature, that is very discriminatory against black women, that is very discriminatory against people of different sexualities. When and if we bring back shame, those are going to be the people who are going to be the most negatively impacted by shame and judgment. And then with the shame and the judgment that comes with that, it comes the withholding of not just community but also the withholding of opportunities. Along with being not really able to bring back shame because as a society a lot of subversive cultures and what was once viewed as abnormal or subcultures that were kept underneath you know kind of underground they have become mainstream and platform thanks to not only social media but also reality TV to a certain extent bringing different kind of subcultures and lifestyles to the forefront. It also is not going to work because we are no longer a society that has any existing regulations, standards, norms, and honestly any values as a society.
American values have long gone out the window. And even then, when you think about American values, American values for who? Which communities? White Americans, black Americans, Italian-Americans, immigrants. There has never really been any unifying American culture, American values. And when you think about what that phrase means, we have never been a homogeneous society for shame to exist, it only exists under the framework of white supremacy and patriarchy. [laughter] You cannot make people feel shame in a society where there are no overarching shared collective values, regulations outside of the law. And even when it comes to rules and regulations, you see that as long as you have money or you're someone of a certain class or you're someone of a certain status, the law doesn't even apply to you. And so it's kind of a free-for-all. We are in freef fall as a society. There are no norms anymore. There are no standards. And we really do not value anything except capitalism. That is what the norm is.
That is what the standard is. That is what the bar is. Capitalism. not our shared humanity, not what we owe one another, not community, but capitalism and essentially trying to make as much money as possible while doing as little work as possible. And it doesn't matter how many people you have to step on or subjugate in the process to get there.
We have created an environment where it is dog eat dog and everybody is just struggling for their piece of the pie trying to survive. That is the environment we have created in this country as our culture has essentially been replaced by capitalism. When you think about American culture, when you think about American values, it essentially boils down to that. At one point, it was the American dream and now it is just to make enough money to keep a roof over your head and food on the table. Capitalism has replaced American values and the American dream. You cannot make people feel shame in a society where there are no rules, where there are no regulations, where there are no expectations, where simply everyone is trying to survive. And even when you think about shame in the capacity that people want to bring it back in online, it's not even shaming people who are engaging in actively harmful behavior. Especially when you look at people like James Charles who still has a following of how many tens of millions of people. I think it's something like 30 million or 40 million people and he is a whole predator. You know, when you think about the concept of shame, it's not against people who are actively doing harm, who are creating harm in this world. It is online especially. It is. We want people to feel shame when they are doing something people perceive as cringe. And nowadays anything can be perceived as cringe. People perceive anybody trying, anyone aspiring, anyone showing up for themselves, anyone who has just not taken a defeist attitude towards life and actually believes in the hope of tomorrow. That's cringe. Oh my goodness.
Why are you sharing this? Why are you so open about this? Oh, you love your husband. You love your children. You love being a mom. Ew. Gross. Cringe.
Shame. Like everything is cringe now.
Shame will not work online because shame denotes again some type of shared value system. Not only is there no shared value system, it seems like actually the only shared value system is people trying to put down others for simply existing outside of the norms and the bounds of how they believe people should be living. That's really where the crux of this lies online as it pertains to bringing back shame. anybody showing up and existing in a way one person doesn't like. And if they can stir up enough people to join their hate train, to join their hate campaign, to get enough people on board to dislike one person, they can throw shame their way. But they'll throw shame their way under the guise of accountability. And that's what ultimately shame boils down to online.
When people say bring back shame, what they mean is join me in this campaign of hate or join me in holding this person accountable. But you cannot hold somebody accountable you are not in community with. And I will say this until I am blue in the face. People do not want accountability. You cannot get accountability for someone you are not in community with. What people actually want is to dog pile on people, to hurt people's feelings, to make fun of people, to start a hate train, to just bring people down with the express purpose of running them offline. That is what shame is for a lot of people. They want to hurt people. They want to abuse people. Unfortunately, that is what people mean when they say bring back shame. And that is not something that I will ever co-sign. We now exist in an era where certain faux paws or people showing up in a way other people don't like or approve of. It is being amplified on a larger scale because of social media and people are being severely punished and harassed under the guise of shame. But it's not shame. It's retribution. People want others to suffer. That is not accountability. That is not shame. That is harassment. And that is bullying. Now, let me be very clear. There is a place for this if and when someone is actually engaging in harmful behavior. I brought up James Charles earlier for example. He is someone who actively participates in harmful behavior and should not have a platform or an audience. Yet this past week, we saw Jackie Aina under intense an intense amount of hatred on the internet for sharing an opinion that people did not agree with and her faux paw did not amount to the amount of harassment and bullying she has been experiencing for going on six days now.
She did not do anything that is actively harming anybody.
All she did was share an opinion that people did not agree with. This is why I said earlier that the concept of bringing back shame and what that entails, it is going to negatively impact marginalized communities the most. And when it is being done on an online capacity, you are going to see that a disproportionate amount of hate levied towards black women because it has always been open season on black women on social media. It is the people who belong to marginalized groups and marginalized communities who will most intensely feel the scrutiny and the backlash of the shame so many people are eagerly and excitedly calling for. Shame is only possible or at the very least only has value when being a part of the community is necessary for survival and being ousted from that community means sure death. If not physical death, then at the very least social death and shame and not just upon you, but upon your entire family and your entire lineage at one point in time. That's what the impact of shame was. That's why it was so damaging. But that is also simultaneously why it was such a powerful means of social control and behavior. We are no longer existing in a time where that exists on a onetoone generally for most people on a daily basis because of c capitalism has made it so we are amplifying individualistic lifestyles and most people can exist without community and some people prefer that because we have normalized antisocial behavior. So a lot of people prefer to exist without community without friends. So shame in the form of being ousted from communities and having it impact not just you but your entire lineage or at least the following two generations. No, it's not that extreme anymore. But when you think about how shame has been weaponized on the internet under the guise of accountability culture, it is something that is absolutely very damaging and it can in a many ways be a means of social death, especially if you are a content creator. And it only doesn't exist towards content creators. How we've seen so many content creators be bullied, be harassed. Like I just said, Jackie Aa has been on the receiving end of a great amount of scrutiny. And not just criticism because people are like, "Oh, we're critiquing her. Everybody's open to criticism." No, there's a big difference between criticism and what is what has been happening to her over the past week. And I would honestly say what happens to her every 60 to 90 business days, people online, hundreds of people decide they want to attack her. And it it's very sickening to witness. And again, that is something this idea of shame. It is something that will have the most disastrous and negative impacts for black women, especially in an environment and on an environment like social media where the worst of the worst is amplified and there are no protections for content creators, influencers, social media personalities or just the average users. And so there is a difference between criticism and feedback and what people are doing. And even again with that criticism, if somebody does not want to receive your criticism, you cannot force them to receive your criticism. I don't understand how people do not understand.
You do not have to say everything you think. Every day I be banging my group chat with my sisters like, "Girl, did you see this? Girl, did you see that?" I feel like most people, more people need to utilize their group chats. But I digress. We are no longer living in a society where that type of shame will have disastrous impacts in your real and lived life. at least shame in a community sense on the onetoone daily, you know, interactions with people, you know, people in your church community, at your job, your hobbies, the restaurants you go to, things like that, things like that. We're for the most part not seeing shame like that in society. The shame has gone online and it doesn't only have disastrous effects for content creators, influencers, and social media personalities. You know, they are not the only people who are seeing the negative impacts of this mob culture trying to hold people accountable. The average person sees that, too. Now, somebody will post a 10-second clip of somebody doing something wrong or some perceived slight, you know, somebody reclining their seat on a flight using the function of the seat that you paid for.
And if the person recording it doesn't like it without any context, they could post a video on social media and people will go out of their way to find this person, dox them, get them fired from their job, you know, create this hate campaign against them. The Coldplay people, for example, you know, those people that caught caught allegedly cheating on their spouses at the Coldplay concert. That was between them and their spouses. Yet, people took it upon themselves to send that woman death threats and they she had to go into hiding. That was unnecessary. That had nothing to do with you. Was that woman cheating on her husband and that man cheating on his wife? Was it something that was hurting you as an individual?
No. You know, people take these ordinary daily annoyances that we just that are just functions of life and features of life or just things that happen that really don't impact us one way or the other. Small annoyances like somebody reclining their seat on a flight or somebody took the last whatever. I all of these crazy things that go viral that are just very benign things. People want to find them and shame them and ruin their life off of these small interactions that blow up online, but in the grand scheme of life mean absolutely nothing and aren't harming anyone. Now, cheating, yes, cheating is harming their family structures. But again, it's not your family. I'm not trying to normalize cheating. I'm not trying to say it's okay. No, it is not okay. But that person cheating does not mean that I or anybody should be sending them death threats and calling their job and trying to get them fired. That is crazy. As I have stated, we have normalized a great deal of antisocial behavior on the internet.
And this is behavior in real life that would get you called out for being a loser or for being weird or like for taking it way too far. And if this is how y'all shame people on the internet, no, I don't think we need to bring back shame in real life. We really don't.
Like, we can go without it. Like, no thanks. In the traditional sense, no, we do not need to bring back shame. And certainly online, y'all have already brought back shame under the guise of accountability culture and it needs to stop. Like relax. I I think we really need to relax and take a step back and ask ourselves if the behaviors we are engaging in if they are pro-social behaviors and if you are someone you would even want to be in community with yourself. Are you someone you would want to be a friend to, a family member to, a co-orker to, a teammate to? somebody you engage with and share hobbies with because the way a lot of y'all seek to hold people accountable online and bring back shame. Y'all are not safe people.
And I would not want to be in real life community with you. But that's just me.
That's just me. At least not my people.
Like my crew, those of y'all who've been locked in with me, we good in the club.
We all fam. Like [laughter] everybody else though, I'm not I'm not entirely sure. Y'all scare me. Y'all really scare me. Y'all really scare me.
People be talking about WE'RE OVERWORKED, UNDERPAID. I don't see it cuz y'all got a lot of time and energy to start hate campaigns online.
Capitalism can't be whooping your ass that much because the amount of time some of y'all got the energy some of y'all got. Get a hobby for real. Go outside y'all. It's finally booty shorts and crop top season.
Go outside. No, we do not need to bring back shame. If anything, we need to bring back community. And honestly, if I'm if I'm being dead ass honest, we would not be able to bring back shame on social media anyway because we live in a culture where attention is currency.
People can get on the internet and say and do the dumbest things and build a very lucrative platform and following off of that thing. It can be anything.
People do a lot of trifling things and build a great amount of followway. There is no line. Like I said, there are no values. There is no bar. There is no decor. There is no standards anymore.
There is nothing that unifies us really as Americans except maybe our dislike of Canadians. [laughter] And even then, I don't think that unites us as Americans BECAUSE I LOVE ME SOME CANADIANS. They have nothing to do with me. Matter of fact, Canadians after Americans and I think my follower like when I do the breakdown of geographically where people are watching me, it is the United States obviously, uh, Nigeria, South Africa, the UK, and Canada. So, I ain't got nothing against Canadians. Y'all be watching me and I'm down. I appreciate y'all. Shout out to the Canadians. Y'all are right by me. We ain't got no beef and I'm happy you're here. Okay, all of my international daddies, I'm happy that you are here.
Thank you for watching the channel and subscribing and being on the winning team. But anyways, to wrap this up, no, we do not need to bring back shame. at least not in real life, in our real lived experiences. Because like I said, the people who are going to be most negatively impacted by any degree of shame that will bring back are going to be the marginalized communities, but more specifically black women. As we are already seeing online with the shame that is occurring online under the guise of accountability culture, what a lot of people perceive to be accountability on the internet. As I said in this video, and as I've said time and time and time again, it is not accountability. It is retribution. It is harassment. It is bullying and again we see it happening most negatively. The people who are most negatively impacted by this are black women. In the video I did on woke swatting, one of the content creators I covered in that video was Paris, a black woman, a young black woman who was woke swatted and attacked on the internet for over 5 days over something she did not say, but something that was perceived based off of vibes in her comment section. Hundreds of people made it their personal mission over Memorial Day weekend to attack a young black woman over the vibes and accusations from a white woman and another black man that were unsubstantiated to this day. When we see this behavior happened online, it's disproportionately negatively impacting black women. Last week, it was Paris. this week for going on six days now. It has been Jackie Aina who has been attacked, harassed, bullied over a situation that not only had nothing to do with her, but again, hundreds of people crawled out of the woodwork to attack, to harass, to bully this black woman over a situation that had nothing to do with her that was not of her own design, but because she would not perform in the way people wanted her to.
When you think about any type of accountability society wants to levy on people, when you think about any type of shame society wants to levy on people, it is always going to negatively disproportionately impact marginalized communities and especially and particularly black women. So, we do not need to bring back shame, especially since it's inconsistent across the board. behavior one person is shamed for, attacked for, bullied for, and harassed over, or seen as cringe is cool on somebody else who looks entirely different because people are inconsistent. But also, people have their own biases. People have a perception in their mind of who is deserving of grace, who is deserving of patience, who is deserving of respect.
And that goalpost is always moving, and that grace is often denied to marginalized communities, but especially black women. So, no, we do not need to bring back shame. What I will say though, and this is what I'll close with, is that we absolutely need to bring back discernment because there are a lot of things that I'm seeing on the internet and I'm like, we should know less about one another. However, instead of getting in their comment section and trying to shame them and hold them accountable, I just block them and keep it moving because I have tools available at my disposal that make it so I do not have to see this information. I do not have to see these videos if I do not want to. And so that's what I will close with. We don't need to bring back shame.
Shame is not a productive tool at this point. And it's not even a useful tool because again, as Americans, the only thing that unites us, the only shared value we have in 2026 is capitalism. And when you are able to get on the internet and build a platform off of any and all types of behaviors because there is no bar, there are no values, there are no standards, there are no norms, there are no rules, and there are no regulations to police or even regulate what is acceptable and what is unacceptable behavior. Everybody's going to have their own bar. Everybody's going to have their own line in the sand of what is acceptable. Therefore, shame cannot exist in a society where there are no shared values, shared cultures, shared norms or shared standards. So, shame is officially gone and it is not coming back. The best thing you could do is regulate your online space and build community in real life. In all honesty, if you do want to see shame come back in a very weird way, you are going to have to work on building community and that way you can exclude people from the communities that you are building. It's a it's very weird. It's a very weird workaround. So, no, shame is not coming back. Shame is gone. It is what it is.
And it is not something by any means we need to bring back. If anything, we need to bring back discernment. And you know what? I think I'm going to do a video about that next because I think discernment is one of those words we throw around a lot. But it's like, what does it mean? And how do you build it?
So, as as someone who I would like to pat myself on the back and think I am pretty discerning, we're going to talk about discernment, but that's another video for another day. Jump down in the comments. Let me know your thoughts.
Don't forget to like the video and subscribe to the channel. Also, if you've been here for a minute and we've been locked in, don't forget to hype up the video. It really helps to push the video out into the algorithm and helps the channel grow. I would definitely appreciate it. Any little bit helps. If you're not subscribed to the channel yet, what are you waiting for? Go ahead and subscribe. If you haven't left a comment yet, go ahead and leave a comment, like the video. Thank you so much. And yeah, wait, be on the lookout for that video on discernment because it's coming. We JT coming.
com. It's like, let me stop. We need it, though. We need this video. All right, y'all. Jump in the comments. Let me know your thoughts. Take care of yourself.
Again, we don't need to be shaming people on the internet just because you don't like their content. Block them or scroll past and keep it moving. That's it. That's all. Take care of yourself and go outside. Go touch grass, y'all.
Don't be on these e streets all day.
Don't be on this internet all day. Go outside and live. Especially now that it's officially summer.
[laughter] I'm so excited. All right, y'all. He's out.
