content: The Utility of the Nietzschean Paragraph Format Bronze Age Pervert brought back Nietzsche's short paragraph format. Here are my thoughts on this. Writing a long magnum opus isn't suitable for spreading our message anymore. People just TL;DR you if you write a long argument. What you have to do as a content creator or a serious advocate is organize your ideas into short, concise paragraphs or sections that handle a more complicated topic without being too long. When arguing a more complex point you can simply abbreviate it by highlighting and linking the point you made to the more fleshed out argument. So if someone wants to get into this with you, they can at the very least pick and choose and you'll look more prepared. This is especially useful for confrontational emails where you try to deactivate journalists. I call this a drop-down argument because it's similar to those little drop down arrows where you click it and get a big expanded paragraph. I'm trying to convince Alt Hype to skip making long 1 hour videos on star wars and simply focus on making like 4 minute concise pieces on a single argument or topic, or just splicing up his videos onto a clips channel. With this method I can make a more flexible presentation of a position that isn't outside their attention span and looks really professional As an activist or content creator, your job would be not to make a standard 10 - 20 minute video but a short, concise, well sourced and well worded or revised series of drop-down arguments that their users can actually test and give feedback -- get some real engagement going. And these can be like 4 minutes long or maybe even less and they can be numbered like "Domestication of Draft Animals Revision 3". This is a much easier way to build up a general narrative and to actually get it to reach wide. Viewers are rewarded for being directly involved in the tailoring process. As an example, I tend to prefer America First Clips or Joe Rogan Clips over you know, 3 hours of that stuff
