This is why we gave up Youtube officially:
YouTube will cut parts from your video now. Imagine that. In this case it is from a TROM II snippet that @Alexio shared on our "legacy" YouTube channel. Mind you the documentary is free for everyone and also educational, so in a sane world it should be fair use for whatever media we've used.
We are so thankful that @PeerTube exists! We can post all of our videos on our Peertube channel videos.trom.tf/c/trom/videos without being afraid that anything will be banned or cut out.
And to no surprise Facebook does the same:

Banned the same video in several countries....
Basically we are not using YouTube or Facebook anymore since 2 years ago. Only @Alexio and @Georgi post there from time to time, mirroring our Friendica or Peertube. We do that since there are still many people following TROM on those platforms unfortunately. We are always trying to bring them to the fediverse and to these sane platforms, but change is hard...
So for now at least if some of our content can be mirrored to these trade-platforms while encouraging those following us there to change their online habits and use these other trade-free alternative platforms, then so be it.
But it is another reminder of the stupidity of our world, emerged from the practice of trade where even the reproducible at no cost digital content is "owned" and traded, so that ideas like copyright are invented to protect them. Terrible.
Te digital is abundant so we should not even put restrictions in place. But you can't do that in a trade society since so many would take advantage of that for their own gain.

This project argues that trade is the origin of most problems: from climate change to slavery, waste and pollution, corruption, crime, you name it. And if we understand the cause, we have a chance ...

=> what kind of solution could this be? I‘m just curious as I couldn’t find any hint on your website. How could a word without trade look like?

in reply to 💠 Dave No One 💠 • •Since the topic is of course complicated it requires a longer answer.
First is the book we wrote called The Origin of Most Problems where we talk about that. You can read it here - tromsite.com/books/#flipbook-d… . It is indeed a very long book but the way we make our books is different from "normal" books. We design them in a more "fun" way and make them interactive at times. This one is deigned as a comic-book.
Second, we released a documentary last year called: A Message to the Aliens - tromsite.com/documentaries/tro… - this addresses your question too. It is 5 hours long divided into 4 parts.
Lastly I made a presentation last year about our project and what a world without trade may look like - videos.trom.tf/w/6R92qduTeGHma… - some half an hour long. First 2 minutes the audio sucks, sorry.
