Bad news. If you want to survive, you may have to cooperate with people you don't agree with, outside of your cultivated #socialmedia bubble, people who are as dumbfounded and incredulous of your values as you are of theirs. You have in common the desire to live the way you want under a government that serves it citizens. Your enemies will divide and conquer you, shrink your world, until they control what is in front of you. Decide whom you despise less, swallow your pride, and join with them.
@profdc9 You've had a rough hand dealt you, Dan. You hang in there.
@mikef And to imagine this is as good as social media gets. I never thought the descendants of BBSs would end the world, but here we are.
@profdc9 Prolly GinsuTalk did :)
I agree that scaled social communication seems like a poor idea. For BBS's, we all had to wait our turn as our autodialers found a gap in the busy signals.
@mikef Calling it Nuclear Greenhouse seemed cool but in retrospect may have been a bad omen.
@profdc9 Kinda like a whole bunch of stuff that seemed transgressive but in retrospect was pretty bleak. We weren't alone there.
