I hope you reconsider at some point and return. And whether you do or not, that you find ways to contribute to the wider cause (I accept that time and energy writing long posts for BC may not be the most productive way to make a contribution.) You might check out Matt Taibbi; you didn't seem to grasp the significance of his coming to essentially the same conclusion you have https://secure.boychat.org/messages/1624921.htm. He is one of the two or three people who still actually practices the craft of journalism; when Elon Musk took over twitter, Taibbi was the guy he hired to go through it. Taibbi uncovered the evidence that twitter had become a tool of thought control at the disposal of the national security state. Musk and Taibbi later had a falling out that I don't understand; it's too depressing to try to understand -- along the lines, I suppose, of trying to grasp why you seem so angry at several of us. Whatever: I wish you all the best and will be sorry not to be privy to your thoughts going forward. SR |
