Do we need to sacrifice anonymity for a better Internet?

I have been thinking about this for a while. As someone who has never been anonymous, and paid the price/had to defend everything I say... I wonder if we need to admit that anonymity doesn’t work, except in particular circumstances. I mean trolls aren’t whistleblowers and your abuse isnt speech, my guy.

This channel is primarily about fun and building camera skills and riffing ideas, my overall mission is to get you thinking critically and laughing about the Internet, and particularly the 'culture wars'.

This channel is partially for educational/comedy purposes, but also a small, self-funded, unsponsored, unedited show. If you expect me to do something YOU want (eg clips), then you are mostly certainly welcome to a) make clips yourself, or b) donate at higher tiers, or invest in my work, so I have time to do that.

This stuff isn't free to produce, you know: https://teasmith.com.au

Otherwise, if you aren't paying me, this is supposed to be fun for me and #comedy​​​​ practice and I will talk about what *I* want. I swear BECAUSE it annoys people (and I have a stutter), so spare the lecture. Nobody owes anyone anything that isn't paid for, including content creators. Thanks.

If you want someone who takes themselves seriously, then fuck off to an Americans-With-Sticks-Up-Their-Arses Channel, or feel free to report me to my HR Department: tea@teasmith.com.au or +61407877431 (Telegram or Signal)

PPS: We don't live in America and the World's #Internet is not your personal HR Department. You don't own us, colonising pricks. STFU and stop chewing so loud. You might actually learn something.

Love you.
