Absolutely this. When republicans point and say to liberals “You lost.” I just reply with “No, we lost, you just don’t realize it (yet).” I might sound smug, but it doesn’t take wiz to realize this President has his own agenda and it isn’t about America. You might think his bans and walls and whatever else he does is…
This is exactly what happens when you create platforms that offer little barrier to entry. Or as Andrew Keen argued “Web 2.0 has created a cult of digital narcissism and amateurism, which undermines the notion of expertise by allowing anybody, anywhere to share and place undue value upon their own opinions about any…
Why is it “do you think...” Why isn’t it - “she violated a federal law. What’s the consequence?” If you ask this administration if they think someone did something bad, do you think you’re going to get a logical answer? Come on. Do you think anyone in this administration is reasonable or gives a shit about laws? Laws…
Politics and the fact that she gave hundreds and thousands to the people who voted for her.
A troll is a troll is a troll. Hiding behind “free speech” when you have no ideology other than more “views” and ego stroking is the game this guy plays. He taken his game of exploiting the weaknesses of Web 2.0 social media to a real world stage. Bully, Troll, video people, and cry “oh poor me, I’m the victim here.”…
Trump is a Troll with no ideology. He’s not a Republican, he’s a self-absorbed narcissist energized by both positive and negative publicity. He wants his inner circle to fear him lest be fired. Bannon wants this too so he can carry out whatever agenda he has. We cannot treat these people as reasonable or even mentally…
Devotion = Devo = Deevolution = mankind has actually begun to regress, as evidenced by the dysfunction and herd mentality of American society.
As someone with diagnosed anxiety, I often have to die to live. I have to go to that place to move forward. I’ve had to do that a lot with a Trump Presidency. Anxious folks like predictability. He is anything but predictable. So, he challenges me to live in the moment and deal with what comes as it comes. That said,…
The next time I hear someone say “you lost, stop your whining,” my response will be “We all lost, you’re just too stupid to know it yet.”
Makes total sense. I’m a closet Corporate Culture nerd and what I see most is that when culture and/or leadership turn sour, there’s a drop in retention. A big piece of the culture part is authenticity. If your culture doesn’t reward authenticity - the ability at all levels to not B.S. one another, you’re probably in…
I too struggled with “getting to know the other side” idea right after the election. Thing is, I already engage with well educated, thoughtful, Republicans (I know a couple). I have some acquaintances whose Republican families saw through Trump’s hate, etc. and voted Hillary. But, should I spend energy getting to know…
Pros:
MINOR SPOILERS
The guy should be in prison for purposefully deceiving people to his financial gain. Why people aren’t standing at his door with pitchforks is beyond me.
I think its funny that people think Trump should abide by rules that former president elects, etc. abided by. Clearly, if its not a law and there isn’t real consequence for breaking it, Trump is going to do whatever he damn well pleases. I don’t know if there is a law for conflict of interest, but so far it doesn’t…
The Elephant in the room is whether the positives of an Internet, where anyone, regardless of intellect or experience, can quickly* post/share anything, is good or bad for the advancement of personkind.
Thumbs up. My company was acquired by a company in Provo, Utah and I moved to Utah with many non-Mormons to keep my job. Living among the Mormons wasn’t horrible, most are nice well meaning people. But, most were also extremely ignorant. I had befriended a co-worker who as married and had 3 kids at the time. He often…
Butthead: They said “felicitated” huh huh huh.
He’s batshit crazy, plain and simple. What anyone who voted for him thought he would do for them, I haven’t a clue. What I do think is there are a lot of people in this country who are going to quickly realize they’ve been duped by America’s #1 Snake Oil Salesman (just like the folks at his fake university, the…
