My fury @Twitter and social media rages. These asshatEs used real human content, our work, our open tech, me personally for their Net Worth?

Ed, thanks for posting this - I want to read it as I see a lot of parallels in our nations, the globe and of course, right here online.

All of us see via the portal of our individual perceptions, experiences and filters. It may be our fatal flaw. It's a working theory atm.

You're nicer than I am about this. We teach outright lies as history and pay teachers so little they don't know better or worse, don't care.

Lot to answer for there, indeed.

FB is not the only one. Google adwords, Twitter, almost all text social media revealing this. Image-based like Snapchat? So far, clean.

I can't figure out how so few people know themselves much less their standard of ethic when they enter the booth at all! Sheep? Partisan? :/

If you voted in USA for president in 2016, do you think you may have possibly been swayed by social media ads and word target campaigns?

Oh do I so powerfully agree with you on that.
The online world should have offered an equitable opportunity, and may ultimately do so, but community and grassroot activism is needed too.

There is such a thing as the money myth. Money is like lubricant - useful to have but not always necessary. The VC's want money their way.
You still working on this? Look at folks/communities where it benefits not degrades - Killer Mike style. It works. You dealt with Asshat(e)s
I believe we are in divisive times because courage is lacking in people who think they have to preserve their myths and sense of control.
I went through similar myself recently - and that was my conclusion. Disconnect. And a side of fear with ignorance worn as a badge of pride.
How can you tell Christians from Jews after a Broadway Show? The Christians all say "let's go for a drink" and the Jews all say "A nosh nu?"

I gotta ask what the VC's were in terms of melanin content - low, mid, high? I'm guessing melanin deficient and blind. Their loss either way

Stepfather followed up explaining that she had stopped finally, proclaiming "I'm Jewish. We don't drink. WHy am I drinking? Get me a NOSH!"😂
